May 3, 2016

The Kanye Yeezy June release without adidas is a bit of surprise as we have yet to see any adidas Yeezy Boosts release in 2016.

Now we get word that the anticipated Yeezy footwear release on June 6th will be without adidas, as Peter Fox, the president of the Yeezy label just released a statement:

“As a first of several launch announcements planned for this year, the highly anticipated YEEZY footwear collection from Kanye West’s own signature line will be released globally on June 6, 2016 in select high-end fashion boutiques, specialty stores and online.”

While no mention of adidas was used in the statement and instead the words “Yeezy footwear collection from Kanye West’s own signature line” was probably the most interesting part of it.

While we wait to hear more updates and news, what do you guys think? Check out the upcoming collaboration below and stay tuned to Sneaker Bar for further development.
