Clothing

The collaboration's first season was noted for its stripped down, ready-to-wear style, which drew on military clothing and flesh-toned colors.[3] Vogue observed a pessimistic aesthetic and "a protective toughness, a body-conscious severity that made the clothes more than a simple accessory."[3]

Footwear

On December 3, 2013, Adidas confirmed a new shoe collaboration deal with West.[4] West confirmed the release of the Adidas Yeezy Boosts with a Twitter announcement directing fans to the domain yeezy.supply.

The release of the Yeezy Boosts and the full Adidas collaboration was showcased in New York City on February 12, 2015, with free streaming to 50 cinemas in 13 countries around the world.[5] An initial release of the Adidas Yeezy Boost 750 was limited to 9000 pairs to be available only in New York City via the Adidas smartphone app; the Adidas Yeezy Boosts were sold out within 10 minutes.[6] The shoes released worldwide on February 28, 2015, were limited to select boutique stores with Adidas Consortium accounts and Adidas Originals stores.
