As Kanye West fans around the world eagerly await anything the artist/designer releases, it turns out that his YEEZY Season 2 collection will not be releasing this summer like with traditional spring/summer deliveries. In an email sent by the brand’s new president, Pete Fox, he lets retailers know that the Season 2 apparel lineup, “will not be produced in its entirety or launched following a traditional fashion calendar.” He also lets the stockists know that certain pieces from the collection will be released throughout the year as they move to a season-less model, while Season 3 will not be affected by this change in plan. Apparently the change in release is due to the effort to deliver better quality for the best price points.

For the footwear side of things, retailers have been told that it will be released globally on June 6, so sneaker fans need not worry for now. Let us know what you think in the comments below and whether you were looking to buy any of the pieces.

Yeezy went in over his head on this.

The sneakers sold well but the overpriced clothes sold like shyt and now it seems like this won't even be releasing. I don't think fashion is where Kanye excels at. Cause if it was, eh would realize that selling the same stuff at 50% of the cost would of made it more popular. Since it was priced out of the range of the average consumer that would buy it, it just collected dust. Alot of Season 1 is still available in stores and sitting even at discount.

Hype isn't enough to sell a product, and to become a good designer it takes time. I realized if I really wanted to succeed at fashion I had to take more tips from people in the actual industry and not go by hearsay and forum talk.

Probably don't have the financing to produce the pieces on schedule. They going spin it like they don't want to follow the traditional release model though.
