Kanye West Calls Out adidas CEO For Biting Yeezy Slides Design
June 14, 2022
A few weeks ago adidas unveiled their latest slipper silhouette dubbed the Adilette 22 slide. While many immediately compared the model to the Yeezy Slides, everyone figured Kanye had given the three-stripe brand his blessings to recreate his original vision.
He did not.
On Monday (June 13), Kanye West took to social media to chime in on the Adilette 22’s and evidently called out adidas CEO Kasper Rørsted for biting his design without his consent or insight and putting it out there for public consumption. In a IG post, Kanye vented his anger about the “blatant copying” that goes on in the sneaker culture and blunted stated “These shoes represents the disrespect that people in power have to the talent.” Tell them why you made, Ye!
