Kanye West & Adidas To Launch Yeezy Retail Store!

Remember when Kanye West went on a Twitter rant about him being broke and even tweeted: “Perhaps Adidas will do some big Lebron style deal or …”

Welp, he definitely spoke it into existence because Adidas did him one better!

Adidas announced that they have expanded their partnership with Kanye West, and they’re doing it in a major way y’all!

In addition to the Yeezy Boosts he’s already created with Adidas, they will have more products for men and women, including athletic wear!

Eric Liedtke, Adidas CMO said, “Kanye is a true creator who has the ability to see things others don’t,” he continued, “With Adidas and Kanye West, we are exploring new territories by opening up the sports world to Kanye’s creativity.”

Here’s the kicker though! This expanded partnership includes launching some actual Yeezy retail stores!

It’s safe to say that Kanye won’t be talking about being broke after this and we are totally here for it!

Adidas partnership with Kanye is actually the biggest partnership Adidas has ever launched with a non-athlete.

3. Kim Kardashian West arrived fashionably late—read, an hour and 15 minutes—with her sisters Kendall and Kylie Jenner. All three wore entirely monochrome, pale beige outfits and sat front row, followed by a crew of cameramen shooting Keeping Up With The Kardashians.

4. Upon entering the park, guests were greeted by a merchandise shop selling Season 4 long sleeve tees in white and neon yellow with show information printed on them. For past seasons, items like this have served as invites given to guests without charge—picking one up this time would set you back $75.
