Looking to try Yeezy Foam Runner? Adidas selling Kanye West shoes in online draw
Did you miss out on grabbing Yeezy Foam Runners for retail price? Now is your chance to grab a pair.
On March 4, the Yeezy Foam Runners in an onyx (black) colorway appeared across Adidas apps in full-family sizings.
The products can only be purchased through an online draw. Customers can participate through the app and deadline to enter is 8 a.m. MST on March 7.
Along with the Foam Runner, a Yeezy Slide also appeared in a dark onyx colorway. Customers can participate through the app and deadline to enter is 8 a.m. MST on March 7.
This is the second Yeezy drop from Adidas this year. Their first drop featured a steel grey colorway of the Yeezy 350 v2 on Feb. 26 but prompted Ye to share his thoughts on the sale.
Ye, the rapper formerly known as Kanye West, took to Instagram to address the sale by the German sportswear company.
"Anybody who loves Ye would not buy these fake Yeezys I never made these color ways I'm not getting paid off of them and adidas is suing me," he posted.
Ye also criticized the public and celebrities for prioritizing trivial matters like fashion choices over serious issues such as child custody battles and corporate misconduct.

"All the new non approved 350's are cooorny and everybody know the 350 been corny," he concluded."
The first collection of shoes, released in June 2023, quickly sold out and contributed to the company's better-than-expected operating profit of 176 million euros in the second quarter, according to Adidas last year.
The German sportswear giant ended its partnership with Ye in October 2022 following the designer's antisemitic remarks on social media and in interviews. The company called Ye's comments "unacceptable, hateful and dangerous" at the time.
Adidas has provided its financial forecast for 2024. The company anticipates that currency-neutral sales will increase by a mid-single-digit percentage. This projection assumes that Adidas will sell the remaining Yeezy inventory at cost, leading to sales of $271 million (250 million euros) in 2024.
