For better or worse, YEEZY season is approaching once again — and as Ye begins to dominate the headlines once again with he and Ty Dolla $ign’s Vultures set to drop any day now, his infamous YZY Pods “sock shoe” has been made available for pre-order. Arriving on the YEEZY webstore, the YZY PODS are available in one color (black) and come in just three sizes: size “1” is for feet under a US 6 or EU 39, size “2” is a US 7-9.5 or EU 40-43, and size “3” is a US 10-13 or EU 44-47.

Apart from their wide size range, the YZY PODS offer a minimalistic look. They’re available in a single all-black colorway, seemingly made of a stretchy knit material. Roughly the height of a tall crew sock, their collar reaches a wearer’s mid-shin, and a thin rubber sole provides protection and cushioning for the sole of a wearer’s foot.

Ye has been seen wearing various sock-like footwear styles (and even just socks sans shoes) several times over the course of 2023 as he undergoes yet another sartorial shift. In May, his Mascotte Holdings Inc. company applied for a US patent around the “sock shoes,” noting that the design would be used on “socks” and “socks with leather soles.”

If you’re interested in getting a pair of YZY Pods, you can head over to the YEEZY webstore and pre-order a pair for $200. There’s no ETA on the pre-order’s shipping at the time of writing.
