Double Tap to Zoom

A week ago, Kanye West and adidas made headlines when they drove Sherpa tanks into Chicago to deliver the long-awaited and much-rumored West-designed basketball shoe, dubbed the adidas YZY QNTM (there is also a performance version called the adidas YZY BSKTBL). The sneakers were given out to lucky members of the public who were at the right spot at the right time, though Kanye West was already wearing a new, unreleased colorway of the same shoe.

As spotted on social media, West was wearing what looked like a cream or beige-colored version. The upper maintains the same “Zebra”-like detailing as the pair debuted at NBA All Star Weekend, though it’s much more subtle.

Take a look above and stay tuned for updates.
