Adidas says they're in a financial pickle due to split with Kanye

[Gizmo_Duck]

Nope. The Yeezy made up 8% of the Addidas annual revenue. Addidas will bounce back without Ye.

It wasn’t just about the Yeezy branding it was about Kanye’s association with the brand altogether. Kanye made the Ultra Boost pop

They never should have allowed themselves to be that dependent on him anyway

This, the main mistake was investing in him in the first place. Once he went off the rails, it was a loose loose situation. They couldn't possibly keep being asociated with him.

Low-key "Ye" stan thread. Yall can't help yourselves.

Fuuuuck em both…

Can you imagine how different they'd be if they landed Michael Jordan in the early 80s, who really wanted to go to Adidas?

This Kanye and Ivy Park financial blip would've been nothing from the money they'd have made all these years.

Without the iconic silhouettes? Prob wouldn’t have made a difference

Adidas freaking sucks and is damn near under armor status, even new balance got better threads and shoes than them. Their designs are overwhelmingly general.

although I’m warning to to New Balance now, I don’t know about this one. NB lost major points for them Kawhi Leonard’s . The 327s are my favorite right now though

I bet to try and offset losses from Kanye going AWOL and Beyonce's line failing Adidas will roll out more celeb collabs at a break neck pace. Taylor Swift, Bad Bunny, anybody popular not already inked with Nike/NB. Swift Boosts in time for the summer

They need the Flygod to curate a finely crafted shoe to lead them back into the Black, pause.

Now if Taylor Swift and Adidas rebranded some old Yeezy with a Taylor Swift colorway and logo. That would be some serious shots fired.

Call ASAP rocky and keep it moving. Kanye west is not the only musician who likes fashion.



Anyway I could care less what happens to a multibillion dollar company with millionaire managers.

No he’s not the only one but he’s THE ONE. He moves the culture as soon whenever he has a shoe deal.

You mean nobody is fukking with Adidas after their Kanye split. Ki d of almost like how it was before they started working with Ye.

990's,991s and 992's strictly....the only version of the 327 I cared for was the todd snyder collab.

his gear was ugly anyway. Goes to show how gullible people are when you attach a name to something.
