West announced the partnership on his Twitter account this morning by sharing an image of the brand’s famed blue box logo with “YZY” replacing the word “GAP.” His all-caps caption read, “YEEZY AND GAP FORM PARTNERSHIP #WESTDAYEVER.” According to a statement, this new apparel partnership will yield a Yeezy Gap line, which is expected to appear in Gap stores and on Gap.com in 2021. The terms of the partnership, Gap said, would give Yeezy royalties and potential equity related to sales achievement.

Gap said this partnership brings the company’s relationship with West full circle, who worked at one of the brand’s stores in Chicago during his teenage years. “We are excited to welcome Kanye back to the Gap family as a creative visionary, building on the aesthetic and success of his Yeezy brand and together defining a next-level retail partnership,” said Mark Breitbard, global head of Gap Brand, in a statement. The announcement of the Yeezy Gap line comes as images of new West-designed footwear looks with Adidas flood social media. Yesterday, for instance, sneaker leak social media account Yeezy Mafia revealed six new Adidas Yeezy Boost 380 colorways for fall ’20 including “Pepper,” “Calcite Glow,” “Onyx,” Azure,” “Lmnte” and “Hylte Glow.” https://www.instagram.com/p/CB3gPoDH8g_/ UPCOMING PRIORITY EVENTS!
