Kanye West Announces Release Date for Adidas Line


Kanye West Announces Release Date for Adidas Line
The streets have been buzzing about sports footwear giants Nike and Adidas signing rappers (Drake and Kanye West) to exclusive partnership deals. Neither Drake nor Kanye seem to be athletically inclined. In fact, both men lean toward the Metrosexual side of the fashion aisle. Kanye kept the buzz going last night by announcing a release date for his new Kanye West x Adidas shoe line.

From StupidDope.com:
In a recent radio interview with Chicago’s Stylz & Roman, West announced that the collaboration would debut in September (certainly he meant of 2o14). Kanye also went on to say that the line will feature both footwear and men’s and women’s sportswear and will be housed in standalone stores specific to the collection itself. West also went on to say, “I’ve been under the wings, playing it the right way at Nike and everything, but I’ve wanted to create more and not been able to create more for no reason.”



Foot Locker Announces Release of Nike Air Yeezy 2 “Red October”

Nike Air Yeezy 2 Red October
Music tycoon Kanye West bailed on Nike following a dispute over royalties. In a recent interview with New York’s HOT 97, Kanye explained:
“So [Nike] said, ok cool, we’re gonna give you a bigger sandbox to play in. We’re gonna give you this amount right here to design, and two collections a year, and 30 SKU — that’s the amount of items that you have. Would that make you happy, Kanye?” And rightfully so, Kanye replied: “I need royalties.”
In that same interview Kanye announced his partnership deal with Nike’s rival, Adidas. Well, it seems Nike had a surplus of Air Yeezy 2 “Red October” shoes left over from Kanye’s contract.

And to make sure no one takes the doors off the hinges to be first in line to cop the new Yeezys, Foot Locker announced the not-so-anticipated sneakers will be released online only on December 27th.
