Kanye West x Adidas Collab Coming In September?

(By Kim Kardashian)


A few months have passed since Kanye West announced that he had severed ties with iconic Portland-based Nike and jumped onto the Adidas ship. This came as a shock to sneakerheads and fans of West's 'Yeezy' lineup. The line is also famous for the rap line, "The Yeezys jumped over the Jumpmans" where West boasts about the success of his line of sneakers. West also famously made it known (about the Adidas deal) that he was done with Nike.

During a radio interview on Sway In The Morning (in the USA), he went on a rant on how Nike marginalized him and his creative efforts. He was clearly disgruntled that not enough creative muscle and money were put into his lines. West also designed sneakers for Louis Vuitton and female shoes for Giuseppe Zanotti. 

There could be a drop in September. West reportedly claims to have designed 20 pairs of sneakers for Adidas. This tells us how relaxed the German outfit is when it comes to control and creativity, compares to their American counterparts.
