Well, if you are looking for something super cool and different than everything else out there, have we got a kick for you!

Introducing the Yeezy 500 High!

The Yeezy 500 High is not the first hi-top model that the Yeezy brand has introduced, but since its release in 2019, it has consistently been one of the Adidas Yeezy brand top sellers, and retail and online stores have found it challenging to keep the stock high with these much sought after sneakers.

What is it that makes the Yeezy 500 High so popular?

First, let's look at a bit of the brand's history to understand it.

The Story of the Adidas Yeezy Sneaker

Though Kanye West didn't officially create the Yeezy sneaker for Adidas until 2013, it had been around a long time before then.

Are you scratching your head?

Here's what happened...Kanye West had first taken the Yeezy concept to Nike, who quickly embraced the idea.

The style and form fit well with their branding and Nike saw great potential for the Yeezy and West inside their sneaker empire.

The Nike Yeezy quickly became a fan favorite, but things began to crumble a few years later.

No one knows exactly what went on behind those closed doors between West and the Nike suits, but the rumor is that Nike was refusing to pay West the number of royalties on the sale of the sneakers that he wanted.

After negotiations began to break down, and the public caught wind of the situation, West decided to take matters into his own hands and jump ship to Nike's biggest competitor...Adidas.

The Perfect Partnership - Adidas and Kanye West

Since 2013, the partnership between Adidas and West has been one of the biggest success stories in sneaker history.

Not only did sales of the Adidas Yeezy quickly increase, but they became more coveted than ever before by kick fans globally.

The Adidas Yeezy Boost 750 was the first collaboration between Adidas and West and left fans and collectors clamoring for more.

Soon, Adidas rolled out the Adidas Yeezy Boost 350 followed not too long after by the Adidas Yeezy 500 High.

What's so Cool About the Yeezy 500 High?

Made with premium leather and cow suede overlays, the Adidas Yeezy 500 High is a dream shoe and the result of the multitude of collaborations and designs that came before it.

Being the first high-top sneaker that Adidas Yeezy has produced since the 750, this Yeezy brings with it a neoprene instead of mesh material, a rubber wrap that feels as good as it looks.

Not only that, but the Yeezy 500 High comes in new colorway options, such as taupe black, mist slate, and mist stone.

And, perhaps the coolest part of the Adidas Yeezy 500 High shoes is that - despite their fashion-forward look - these shoes are also ones that allow for plenty of support and comfort for your foot, while also providing the traction necessary for someone who wants ruggedness as much as unique details built into the sneakers.
