Kanye West's YZY brand drops $20 Yeezy SLPR amid tension with Adidas

Kanye West's YZY brand continues to make waves with the release of the affordable $20 Yeezy SLPR shoe.

Kanye West's YZY brand has released a new footwear model, the Yeezy SLPR, priced at just $20. This marks the second shoe offered at this affordable price by Ye, following the Yeezy Pods, a long sock with rubber traction pods on the soles.

The release of the Yeezy SLPR demonstrates Kanye's continued commitment to offering accessible, budget-friendly fashion that challenges the typical pricing of high-end footwear.

The Yeezy SLPR launch comes just days after Adidas removed all references to YEEZY or Kanye from its websites, making YZY.com the top result for related search queries. Kanye took to Instagram to accuse his former partner of intentionally suppressing the YZY brand’s visibility in search engine results, further highlighting the tensions between the two parties since their split. The ongoing dispute with Adidas has only added fuel to the fire surrounding YZY’s growing presence as an independent brand.

Not much is known about the Yeezy SLPR, but it features a low-cut design with a full-length rippled traction sole, designed to provide comfort and durability. Available in sizes 2 through 16 in increments of 2, the YZY SLPR aims to cater to a wide range of customers looking for a stylish, affordable option. You can purchase the YZY SLPR here, marking another milestone for Ye's ambitious fashion label.

After parting ways with Adidas in late 2022, Ye has continued with independent ventures in both music and fashion. His YZY label is known for its low prices, with many sweatpants, tops, and other items sold for just $20 each, ensuring that fans of the brand can access high-quality items without breaking the bank. Ye’s focus on affordability has resonated with fans looking for budget-conscious alternatives to mainstream designer brands. His innovative approach to pricing, coupled with his boundary-pushing designs, has helped YZY carve out a unique niche in the fashion industry.
