Kanye West is slamming Adidas for selling “fake” Yeezy sneakers.
“Not only are they putting out fake color ways that are not approved, they’re suing me for $250 million dollars,” the rapper-turned-fashion designer shared in an Instagram video posted Monday.
“They’re also not paying me for these shoes that they’re putting out that have my name on it.”
Kanye West put Adidas on blast for allegedly selling “fake” Yeezy color ways.
He also claimed the German athletic company was “raping” an artist by doing so and not paying him.
West, who is still showing off his $850,000 titanium dentures, said the sports apparel company is using “contract clauses” and five decades of “business experience” to “rape an artist … in front of y’all in broad daylight.”
In a separate post, the “Street Lights” rapper shared an image of the “fake” sneaker and wrote his devoted fans would never purchase a pair.
The “Flashing Lights” rapper also claimed Adidas is suing him for $250 million.
“All these celebrities and the public will stand against a T shirt or the color of my hat but when yall [sic] see me have my children hidden from me or see an actual Fortune 500 company rape one of your heroes in real life don’t nobody say nothing or do nothing,” he wrote in the caption.
West, 46, then asked the “system” what it would do next and wondered if it would “take down” his new album, “Vultures,” or freeze his bank accounts.
“They’re also not paying me for these shoes that they’re putting out that have my name on it,” he said in his Instagram video.Jonathan Leibson
“All the new non approved 350’s are cooorny and everybody know the 350 been corny,” he concluded.
Adidas cut ties with the “Jesus Walks” rapper in October 2022 after the designer went on a series of antisemitic tirades and wore a “White Lives Matter” T-shirt to a fashion show.

The deal with the German athletic company accounted for $1.5 billion of West’s net worth, so he lost his billionaire status as he became valued at $400 million, according to Forbes.
In May 2023, Adidas filed — and then immediately dropped — a federal lawsuit against West that aimed to freeze $75 million held by the Yeezy brand.
Adidas and West still remain locked in a private arbitration dispute in which the former is claiming West’s “offensive conduct” led to the breakdown of the partnership.
