Adidas Is Back To Selling Kanye West’s Yeezy Shoes Months After They Ended Their Partnership With Him

by

Last October, Adidas ended its partnership with Kanye West, who legally changed his name to Ye, in response to several anti-Semitic comments he’d made. CNBC reported in February — and the likes of the Associated Press and Rolling Stone reported again at the beginning of May — that the abruptly severed relationship left Adidas with $1.3 billion in unsold Yeezy product. On May 11, Adidas CEO Bjorn Gulden revealed the company’s plan to salvage what can be salvaged.

“What we are trying to do now over time is sell parts of this inventory and donate money to the organizations that are helping us and that were also hurt by Kanye’s statements,” Gulden told investors, as relayed by Complex at the time.

That plan came to fruition today, May 31. Adidas’ official website is headlined by Yeezy, advertising that “some of the remaining inventory” of his products are available on the brand’s app, Confirmed, and promising that a “portion from the sale of these items will be donated in support of the fight against discrimination, hate, racism, and antisemitism.”

An accompanying press release details that the benefiting organizations include the Anti-Defamation League and the Philonise & Keeta Floyd Institute for Social Change.

“The release will mark the first time that products have been available to consumers since adidas terminated the Yeezy partnership in October 2022,” the press release explains. “The products will be existing designs and designs initiated in 2022 for sale in 2023. Additional releases of existing inventory are currently under consideration, but timing is yet to be determined. Today’s announcement has no immediate impact on the company’s current financial guidance for 2023.”

“After careful consideration, we have decided to begin releasing some of the remaining Adidas Yeezy products,” Gulden said in a statement. “Selling and donating was the preferred option among all organizations and stakeholders we spoke to. We believe this is the best solution as it respects the created designs and produced shoes, it works for our people, resolves an inventory problem, and will have a positive impact in our communities. There is no place in sport or society for hate of any kind and we remain committed to fighting against it.”

The May 31 Yeezy drop comes one day after Billboard reported that Adidas’ request for an emergency order re-freezing of the $75 million held by Yeezy was denied by a federal judge.

When it comes to the summer months, there are a ton of amazing pieces of footwear that you can choose from. However, there is no doubt that slides seem to be the obvious choice when it comes to warmer months. Overall, there is a good reason for this. Slides allow for your feet to be exposed to the air. This gives you some breathability. Moreover, it can help cool you off. Whether you are at the pool or simple running some errands, slides should always be part of your sneaker rotation.

Kanye West Reportedly Did Have Close To $100 Million Frozen By Adidas

by

Back in November, Kanye West accused Adidas of freezing some of his accounts. While speaking to an outlet called X17, he noted that over $75 million in cash was frozen out of nowhere. Overall, it was a pretty wild claim. However, many tied it to his anti-Semitic comments and the brand’s attempts to get out of their deal with him. “I went from being a multi-billionaire to not even being able to use my Apple Pay four nights ago. I couldn’t use my Apple Pay because someone how Adidas was able to legally go in and freeze my money,” he explained at the time.

In new unsealed court documents from Law360, it appears as though Kanye was right about having his money frozen. Ultimately, Adidas was told explicitly in a court of law that they could, indeed, freeze close to $100 million worth of Ye’s money. Moreover, it was revealed that this was an “ex parte” decision from the court. Consequently, Ye was never given a chance to actually respond to the decision. Subsequently, Adidas is entering arbitration to officially terminate its deal with Kanye, and this has led to more litigation with the courts. Essentially, they want a New York federal court to uphold the initial ruling.

This is very interesting timing seeing as though Ye and Adidas have teamed up to sell off the remaining Yeezys that are in stock. Kanye will be getting a pretty hefty royalty from this. However, it is clear that Adidas would rather just sever ties completely, and as soon as humanly possible. Given the circumstances, it is understandable as to why they feel that way.

Overall, this is an ongoing situation with some fairly big stakes involved. For Kanye, he just wants proper access to his money. Meanwhile, Adidas wants to protect its interests and profits. Stay tuned to HNHH for all of the latest news and updates from around the sneaker world.
