Adding to our looks at rare Kanye West designed footwear, we now have a look at the adidas YEEZY 1050 GORE-TEX sample.

Reportedly one of three samples in existence, the chunky boot look builds on the controversial figure’s reverence for workwear, outdoor gear and rugged functionality. Utilizing the waterproof, breathable GORE-TEX fabric membrane, the shoe is printed all over with a unique red-tinged tree camouflage pattern. The upper is assisted by an extended bootie liner heavy-duty pull tab at the rear, contrasting black traditional lacing and toggle pull cord securing system. Another prominent element on the shoe is the mudguard/midsole that wraps around the lower portion of the upper and is attached to the to a toothy black rubber treaded outsole.
