Kanye West Slams Designer For Mocking New Yeezy “Pod” Shoes

Kanye West accused the designer of taking money from Adidas to mock his newly released Yeezy Pods sock-like shoe.

Kanye West is furious with a designer he has accused of taking money from Adidas to mock his new Yeezy Pods. 

Fans recently started receiving their new Yeezy brand sock-like shoes, and the sizing has apparently caused some confusion. According to the official Yeezy website, the Pods were available to purchase in sizes 1, 2 or 3. Some customers ended up with the wrong size and took to social media to share their experiences.  

An Atlanta-based sneaker community Instagram account with 130,000 followers reposted a photo of the shoes from a Reddit user. 

“So this what they mean when Size 3 fits size 10-13 in the Yzy Pod?” @ATATF wrote in the caption.

The post was shared multiple times on social media, including by designer Brittany Pierone, who, according to multiple social media users, was once on Kanye West’s Yeezy team.  

She shared the photo on Instagram alongside the caption, “you are a strong worker.” 

Kanye West caught wind of Pierone’s remarks and blasted the designer on his Instagram Story. 

He shared a screenshot, allegedly of his DMs with Pierone, accusing her of taking money from Adidas to clown the Yeezy Pods. 

“Get a size one,” he wrote in another text, adding that he worked on the design for a year before putting them out independently. He went on to slam Adidas, who he said “copied all my s### and treated me like s###.”
