YE had the 20$ item idea before he signed too GAP that was his original plan in signing with them and after signing they refused and wanted to try to elevate their brand perception to higher end streetwear, he was super vocal about it throughout his time working with them.
Hey bro, you should look at the new VANS AVE 2.0 knit shoe. Vans claims its the most technologically advanced shoe they've made to date.
what does that have to do with shoes?
all of kanyes remarks were true tho.
that soap smells awful too. like mcdonalds.
But he made graduation
Shu 😂
Lol
🗑
That was then. This is now.
This is my dissertation, welcome to graduation… Good Mornin’
Please mention the fact that he refunded everyone $180 that bought the pods for $200.
I don’t believe it
@@Earthling247you don’t have to lol it happened regardless
@@MrGatin777 you can’t prove it.🤣
i paid 200 and got my refund a couple weeks after they announced they were doing it
@@conraddelatorres5427 brave to admit you got scammed by a fool, paying $200 for broken socks. Kanye is a hack and always has been.
“I’m not gonna say what race, what people uhh made this compression sock….”
“…it was an Italian”
...chiiiiiina (Trump voice)
Probably one single drop of glue was put here in Italy to earn the made in Italy label.
But I might be wrong
All of this just shows how Italy has become the China of EU in manufacturing.
@@brs8285 There's a documentary called Made in Italy (By the Chinese) that actually goes into how the Made in Italy label means nothing anymore. Talks about how there is 50,000 Chinese immigrants located in Prato, Italy working in sweatshop conditions there. Same quality and poor conditions as if it was Made in China, but just in Italy now.
@@SixSiouxSouth and East Europe always has been
Yeezy pods look like something the foot soldiers would wear from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 😂😂😂
Ninjas do wear similar leggings under sandals
That’s why I bought them they look like ninja shoes😭
It's kind of an awesome deal for a few people needing a specific look for themed events or cosplays. May not be highest long term quality, but better than literally gluing foam and/or leather to a compression sock that may be uncomfortable in the end. If I made these at home with the tools I already have I'd still pay more than $20 in materials.
Ahem. ‘Foot-Clan’
7:00 i think the original intention was for them to be 20 dollars, kanye said a few years ago that he wanted to release a 20 dollar yeezy, wanting the foam runners to be 20 dollars
this is just the start of Ye's $20 vision
I remember that.. also these aren’t shoes.. these are house slippers
The value hype I get .. very brilliant
These house slippers tho
Idk
He coulda came out with a real shoe, sold them regular price, do a big price drop
Come out with another shoe
Even bigger price drop
Not slippers lol
@@audacityhour3104 tbh I might get a pair since they’re 20. My vultures merch I already got but I want these more to walk kinda like barefoot shoes
@@audacityhour3104
My boy needs capital. This is a bit of a cash grab.
Adidas is still holding on to 250 million in royalties they owe Ye.
Their intention was to bankrupt Yeezy so that they didn’t have to fight to make that full payment.
YE realizing that he wanted to be independent withheld this particular idea, marketed it and generated cash flow.
Yep probably!
I also think that perhaps, just perhaps, he is attempting to convey to you that the perceived value of other sock shoes or trainers in the market might not align with reality, suggesting they could be sold for significantly lower prices.
And that is what he has demonstrated in the 200 to 20 price shift and mimicking of the design.
this is all just speculation lol
I think Yzy gives you back 180$ if you bought yhe Yzy Pod for 200$
Yep - if you purchased them when they were $200 they sent out messages to everyone they would be sending people $180 of their money back.
Yea leave it to the shoe channel to xplane y shoes should b xpensive
That is correct
never refund
@@malshepard749 y=mx+b
Kanye said when he was with Adidas that he wanted his shoes to be 20$ one day
The $ goes in front of the number bud.
@@lhmmhl1says who?
@DEDEBC4L when you are denoting money the dollar sign goes in front of the number. I.e. it is $100 not 100$.

9:50 Somebody bought the wrong size... ...
Good point these might have been available for sale at a lower price because they were small
I was thinking the same thing 😂
Or... Ooooooooor.. several people tried it? I know that's crazy
@@darrenmcsam6848 nope, impossible!
Maybe it’s right after they were running and it slipped down their foot?
Kanye been saying he’s planning on charging only 20$ for a pair of Yeezys since back in 2021 and I think it’s known that they refunded the 180$
3x to 5x times the margins you hit it on the head. they wouldnt give him a seat on the board so he was like why should i keep splitting the money im generating with all his trendsetting. becasue adidas benifitted from every time kanye walked around and was photographed in Yzy and new outfits
Kanye will never make the kind of money he did with adidas out on his own. It’s too difficult and expensive to produce and ship on a mass scale without Nike/adidas resources
he said he was about to be bankrupt after adidas kicked him
Businesses use associations with celebrities to market their products all the time. Those celebrities come and go, some quicker than others, but companies like Adidas will always find someone and make the most of it, until such time it's no longer beneficial for them. Big companies like Adidas outlast a great many such "celebrities", because most of the time, their fame is relatively short lived. The worlds of sport and celebrities are fickle, unforgiving and unpredictable.
@@another3997except Kanye isn’t a typical celebrity. And it’s not merely an endorsement. Him and Steven Smith and others had a radically different approach and were consistently innovating and succeeding.
@@zecoolerking3Kanye I believe is designing and collaborating on styles.
Somebody like Travis Scott, who is slow, dumb and lame, shows up in a Nike studio to point and grunt at mood boards and design posters.
i bought the pods for 200 and got my refund. I live in Cali and thats where they shipped out from.
every order ive bought ive gotten. just lucky i live in Cali. Mine are made in Italy not China.
I use the pods everyday at the GYM. people arent use to the mininal shoes. i use to run in vibrums.
for 20 bucks its a steal.
love my new gym shoes.
those pads inside are still perfectly intact. i run and box and do weight training in these and no wear and tear.
2months 6 days a week of the gym.
Thanks for ur input
Have you noticed a high degree of wear on the pods themselves?
When you buy from the big shoe companies, you're paying for a lot of marketing and endorsement deals that have nothing to do with the value of what goes on your feet.
You are right the manufacturing happens in sweat shops for a few cents on every dollar they charge
dudes who make jordans their entire personality are not listening to this
Bro is a hero selling hoodies, pants, shirts, socks, pods, all for 20 bucks on his new website! Just spent 240 on like five fits! Thanks Kanye!
lol let us know the review, its not a scam but they are obviously cheaply made they were not gonna be $20 for high quality goods. Hoodie seems alright and pods seems like something that cost $3 to make maybe
@@SuperbCutshave you bought any yet? If not don’t talk about the quality because for the price the quality is amazing doesn’t feel cheap at all
@@SuperbCutsit’s pretty good, cool, warm, sweat resistant, I got 2 hoodies white n black ,plus Yeezy is known to have contacts with high quality factories from Japan
@@SuperbCutsquality is surprisingly good, unbiased opinion here lol
@@giovannimejia6668 Do you live in china?
There’s a fine line between genius and madness, brilliance and stupidity, luck and … bad luck (that got weird).
Ordered mine in February… still haven’t shipped lol
Lmfao
So worse than dropshipping
$200 sock 💀
Same. Feb 12 Yeezy where my pods at 😭
Ordered mine around the same time and I got it last week
that’s the type of sponsor clips we want to see 😂
These are Version1. Steven Smith, the designer of these said they wanna upgrade them. And he has everything for 20$ on the site so its's not no liquidation sale
That💩 ain’t worth $2 even as a house sock. It’s just gonna mess up your foot and be uncomfortable
The $ sign goes IN FRONT OF THE NUMBER.
@lhmmhl1 why does this matter to you so much?
oh thank god ive been waiting for some ASMR thank you poppi
Thx for the insight. I bought a pair of pods. Because i was curious about the sock shoes in general. Honestly, i have never been interested in sock shoes before Yzy pods. I think they are minimalistic functional fashion shoes. Wear them for few months and discard-type of shoes for 20💲
You should track down a pair of red wing Beckmans...I know they're discontinued but it would be really cool to see how they differ from the blacksmiths and the iron rangers
They're not too hard to find second hand, they're great shoss
Haters gon hate
Simps will be simps
I've seen it mentioned here already, but anybody who ordered for $200 could get their refund for the additional 180 they paid. Kanye had a pretty famous quote about wanting to sell clothes and shoes for $20 so everybody would have an opportunity to get them, and like you speculated it's generally agreed upon that the $200 was just to be a marketing thing, especially sense all the extra money was set aside and refunded right away(by request) after the discounted price was announced. Also even at $200, it did have some pretty good sales(for some reason), nothing compared to old yeezy's but because of that I'm inclined to think that it was always planned on being discounted and not dont just because of poor sales.
Great review 🎉
I only buy $20 socks if they’re Darn Tough Vermont! Haha Hope you’re feeling better!
oh damn I heard about it and is very interested, how long does your darn tough usually last?
@@kato2395 I’ve had mine almost five years and finally in one pair it snagged on something I have a hole. The rest are fine and this was one of the lightweight ones I wear for running/summer. I just got a pair of the long ones for refereeing.
@@kato2395I have a few pairs that have held up just fine for the last 3 years. I like them enough that they’re the only brand of socks I buy now
@@kato2395they’re nice bro haven’t bought anything since. I’ve yet to wear a pair out and I’m hard on them, would normally blow thru adidas/Nike socks in like 4-6 months max. Plus they have a lifetime replacement warranty even if you do blow thru them
basically forever, and they replace them if they wear out
I bought mine almost 2 months ago and still haven’t got a tracking number
Funny, balanciaga made these first and they sold the same shit that Yeezy pods made for like $1000… Kanye is doing this with Intent. He’s an artist and designer.
Y'all simps for this dude. 🤣
it's so pathetic. they're like robots that turn their brain off anytime something involving him comes up.
Rose always has the worst takes about anything not shoes
💯💯💯
Exactly. People that paid $200.00 for these need to get their heads checked.
@@jpizel1070 got on yeezy500 boots rn tho lol
They are an absolutely amazing gym shoe. Doesn't take up a lot of bag space so you can wear whatever shoe you want to the gym. It's essentially a barefoot shoe so it lets your feet work properly when squatting, deadlifting, etc. Normally, there are people who just go shoe-less when doing those exercises but that has problems.
Damn it. I might actually have to order some after reading this...
@@RyTrapp0please don’t doesn’t help in case of injuries.
@@jenniesmythe8188oh you’re wearing steel toes to the gym ok
best sponsor sketch ever 🤣🤣
If i recall, Kanye wanted to release $20 shoes with Adidas, but they weren't having it.
Idc what anyone says, I love these pods. I think they're a work of art AND they're comfortable n lightweight. 🤷♂️
They are junk just as shown in the video. Cope.
I bought these $20 socks and theyre surprisingly very convenient
I have a pair of the China versions, they fixed all of the internal gluing problems by removing a lot of that material. and changing the weave of the sock in those areas. Mine do not fit well so I could send them to you for a follow up.
will we be seeing a comparison between the made in italy pair and the made in china pair that are now starting to ship? i've heard the main sock material has changed
Probably can't find it now, but there was a short video floating around with kanye in an office space with lots of samples all over the lobby floor and aluding to this. Talking about, "and this is how you get out of a 20 million dollar deal." Made a lot of sense to me, even then.
Hey bro, you should look at the new VANS AVE 2.0 knit shoe. Vans claims its the most technologically advanced shoe they've made to date.
“Kanye is kinda the $20 sock of the footwear world”
Could you make a video on 5 fingers made by vibram or other brands with virbram soles please ?
I'm really curious about their build
I would love these for the gym but they are not being sold here
Ye as an heel is brilliant!! 👍😁
$20 is inexpensive and the sole adds a lot of functionality that regular socks don't have, so of course it's worth it. Looks and feels a lot nicer when it actually fits your foot. Your feet were too big, sucks to suck lol.
It's the lightest shoe you'll wear, and the tight fit is more comfy than slides, which are often loose and floppy imo.
Also, rolling them down to take them off make them easier to put on and, to me, feels like a low tech air mag effect. IE: put the shoe on -> transform the shoe -> go.
I'd say there's a heavy bias on this review I don't feel like you tried to find any positives and you were focused on the artist rather than the art, which might be important to you, but it's irrelevant to us, who want to know about the quality of the product itself
Adiddas hasn't "sold all the remaining stock" shit's still going.
I got a pair of Puma gaming shoes. They're indoor compression socks with a shoe like sole. I love them for working from home. Mr Roger's had the right idea.
Interesting. I can't go barefoot at all, I'm very ocd. I'll have to look those up.
@@Apollo-Computers if those don't fit your vibe I hear wrestling shoes also make great indoor shoes but most of those you have to tie up where the Puma's just slip on
@@SuperNicktendoThey cost 5x more than the YZY Pods
@@Entertainment- yeah but I bought the Puma's long before the yzy pods came out. These also have the sole throughout the foot and only come up to my ankle instead of like an actual sock.
It's like a bargain bin version of a Japanese Tabi shoe.
It’s heavier than a normal sock. But I only have China pairs.
Add an insole and they are comfy
Next level hospital socks
That was brilliant
I agree that the price of YZYs could be lower, but as a person who needs extra attention to my (thin) feet, I've had no gripes with the comfort of the shoes 👟
The pods seem like some great shoes for me as a person who wants to wear barefoot shoes but is too socially anxious to wear em haha. I think I might get a couple.
I’m still waiting on my pair
Can you do a video on the Balenciaga versions?
this is going to be interesting
been waiting a month for these
Whoever bought these should be banned from ever handling personal finances for the sake of their own wellbeing.
Well done video

Oh this is gonna be big
Feels like a little to much hate towards Ye tbh
hell yeah brother (been waiting for mine for about 2 months)
Kanye has always wanted his products to be affordable, even as far back 10-11 years ago, he's expressed the idea of everything being as affordable as possible, Adidas are the ones who controlled the price at that time so they ended up being overpriced, to build perceived value
I like them

You don't stop and that's why I love you! Dope vid brother!
Thank you Kanye, very cool!
I've tried buying them twice. First in Feb, both times the package has come without the pods. Been a horrible experience.
Some of knew he was a ding-a-ling way before Yeezy happened. We were never fooled.
I think the idea was to sell it to hypebeasts and then reduce the price for everyone
Some stance socks would probably be a better purchase 😅
cant wear stance socks without shoes
Figured as much since it says all sales are final on the website. His brand will sell itself
9:49 - That size is toooo small lol
Havent received my Pods
Good mornian!
I think he may be double dippin and selling some on the resale market as well.
Kanye has been talking about making affordable clothing for years thats what the point of the gap stuff was. my guess is the first batch was either to build hype like you said or as a funding strategy
Good video
Kanye is really a genius...
He took an absolute piece of useless garbage (himself) and fooled people into believing there was talent and worth.
Pure genius
is this a reupload?
This is why Gemini the best we're the best hustlers😅
Kanye did say he wanted $20 shots from a long time ago
Would buy and wear it indoor.
Maybe it wasn't mental help issue but a fkin big publicity stunt, so convenient way to break out from adidas...
Yzy Pods is just diving socks + 2 patches of rubber soles 🤣If you're hitting the gym and want to avoid looking silly, opt for aquashoes instead.

Does Alden make a $700 sock though?!!
You did not need the band saw for those flimsy things. A good poultry shears would have been enough.
Oh I think it's all real. He had a history of all that before in secret. But I also think he wanted to get out of contract, I just don't think he thought it through that well.
Ye is smart as hell
If only he had said that now, everyone would have loved him
