If you’re a fan of Kanye West’s Yeezy shoes, you had better grab them while you can. Though Ye may have a new Yeezy collection with Adidas, the sportswear company is reportedly questioning their partnership with him because of his recent comments. According to CNBC, the company reportedly has placed the partnership “under review” upon “repeated efforts to privately resolve the situation.” According to a company statement, Adidas, which has been in partnership with West since 2013, “will continue to co-manage the current product during this period.”
Ye’s sneaker and apparel lines with both Gap and Adidas have been valued between $3.2 billion and $4.7 billion. However, West has reportedly been desiring more creative control, and was contemplating opening his own stores. After a few contentious years, West recently ended his partnership with Gap, the company behind his most recent apparel collections. “It’s time for me to go it alone,” he recently shared in an interview with Bloomberg. “No more companies standing in between me and the audience.”
