And to think niggas were laughing, and I mean LAUGHING at Kanye back in 2013 when he said he wanted to be a staple in fashion.
Jokes on you
This so mind blowing, I was in Africa this summer and all the shoes and sneakers there were knockoffs Yeezys like 85% of sneakers people wore , I thought this was just independent phenomenon in the 3rd world
This weekend I went shopping with my gf in America and almost all the shoes in Famous Footwear DSW Target etc are shoes with blatant Yeezy dna
On one hand true but it’s wild no one ever called him out for blatantly copying the Roshe and then subsequently creating a whole flavor of shoes based off the Roshe
Even the basketballs have a Roshe type sole lol
Most of the low top Yeezys are Roshes with a different design other than a swoosh or a cage on them
i always find it insane how much he dominated fashion like i can’t think of any other artist being able to start a fashion brand and make dope s*** that people actually want. it’s so hard to get into that industry so for him to conquer that too mad. we all saw rocawear sean john those were wack
and this is not even mentioning the old fashion niggas who were in his camp are doing major things in the world of fashion rn (virgil, matt williams, jerry etc)

Style wise he himself was a staple before that point but while he has gone crazy in sneakers but most of his actual fashion pieces still get ridiculed lol
its true, i saw the same when I was in india. everyone had fakes BUT they were also really happy with them on, honestly ppl genuinely thought they were fresh so I was even happy to see them happy based on the design alone
they probably dont even know who ye is
Merrell is Nike for Midwest and Northwest WASPs who drive hybrid cars and shop at organic co-ops, listen to NPR and drink lots of water from a flask
Weren't these out before the Yeezys or am I tripping
These came out way before Ye even wore his slides in public lol
Not true
Those dropped in fall 2019 and this is a pic from june same year

These supposed to be foam runner copies? Because they look closer to crocs which I think is safe to assume inspired the foam runners lol
These are even the Yeezy color way that other guy just lying
So they were literally out before the Yeezys lol
These supposed to be foam runner copies? Because they look closer to crocs which I think is safe to assume inspired the foam runners lol
They are croc inspired not yeezy
These came out way before Ye even wore his slides in public lol
Yeah Ye has done some influential s*** in footwear but Hydros > foam runners
If you google "foam runner" enough times or buy a pair then Merrell starts targeting u with ads for their s***
Why would a company do that if its not a copy
Not true
Those dropped in fall 2019 and this is a pic from june same year
My guy where is Kanye?
Y'all really can't be s***ting on Merrell for the Hydros when they're both inspired by Crocs and the 350s are inspired by Roshes
and this is not even mentioning the old fashion niggas who were in his camp are doing major things in the world of fashion rn (virgil, matt williams, jerry etc)
the creative directors of LV and givenchy came from him like it wasn’t even like these dudes were even a thing before they met the guy.
350s are so played out
750s though
i like 350s but they’re so 2016 at this point
