Kanye West Unveils Yeezy Season One for adidas Originals

After all the anticipation leading up to this release, the last – or perhaps the first – thing for Kanye West and adidas to do was to let the work speak. Taking to the Skylight Clarkson Square venue in New York City, Kanye West finally unveiled Yeezy Season One for adidas Originals. West used the opportunity to not only debut his sartorial visions for next season and beyond, but also debut a new track with Sia & Vic Mensa – dubbed “Wolves.” Naturally, the show was a star-studded affair – even on the modeling front; West tapped Ian Connor and rising model Luka Sabbat for the show. The collection itself is a summary of Kanye’s familiar aesthetics: military fatigues, shield vests, carefully-distressed bohemian knits and flowing jackets are all part of West’s ensemble. The designer continually emphasized Boost as the premier footwear technology and, accordingly, West and adidas also introduced new footwear silhouettes to the fold, including the somewhat elusive Yeezy Boost Low.
