It is so hard to come to terms with the fact that Kanye West‘s long awaited and before now completely unseen Adidas collab actually leaked when someone took a photo of it on a plane. For one, I always imagined being Yeezy would mean you got to travel a little plusher than the picture would suggest, but mainly it seems insane that with the measures in place which have so far kept even rough design sketches under wraps, a prototype would even be pulled out on a commercial flight.

I’m certainly not complaining though, judging by the photo the Yeezi 3 is a sort of boot/sneaker hybrid sporting a number of Kanye West signature features like a Velcro over-lace closure and ribbed detail, appearing this time on the molded sole of the shoe. Added to this, the Yeezi features toggle laces and a side zipper closure, setting it apart from Timbs and Red Octobers alike.
