The new Yeezy “clog” is here y’all.
Kanye revealed the newest Yeezy model today at Fast Company’s Innovation Festival. The shoe is a biodegradable Yeezy Foam Runner that is partly made up of wait…algae?

The shoe looks similar to a Croc and the West/Kardashian family members have been spotted sporting the new kicks numerous times, most recently North West. The shoe has yet to debut at retailers but after the reveal it’s likely that’s not far off.
Adidas has made it clear they are making a conscious effort to create more sustainable footwear options. The brand has an ongoing partnership with Parley, as well as sneakers made from recycled ocean plastic, so this doesn’t necessarily surprise us. Take a closer look at the shoe below:
