The Neptunes producer Pharrell Williams has the Internet buzzing this week with new pics of his upcoming Adidas collection surfacing online.
Although there’s still not a definitive release date, Skateboard P’s gear is making its rounds across the Internet.
The first images of his capsule collection with Adidas have surfaced thanks to Packer Shoes and, true to our prediction, it’s all about the Stan Smith. Instead of mass marketing his hand-painted style, Pharrell went with a sleeker approach, doing up the shoe in electric blue (and red, and black). The whole initial appeal of the Stan Smiths were its clean style, but leave it to Pharrell to jazz them up in eye-popping shades. (MTV)
This teaser Kanye West Adidas video premiered online a few months ago…
A teaser video of a Kanye West song reportedly called “God Level” hit the masses earlier this year.
Less than three weeks ahead of the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, Adidas has released a new advertisement for its “The Dream: All In or Nothing” campaign that features new music by Kanye West, who married Kim Kardashian in Florence on Saturday. Snippets of the drum-heavy new track, where West repeats “God Level,” play over soccer stars like Lionel Messi, Dani Alves and Bastian Schweinsteiger battling it out on the field. The song was co-produced by 88-Keys, Hudson Mohawke, Mike Dean, Noah Goldstein and West. (Billboard)
April reports claimed Mr. West’s full-fledged post-Nike sneakers would likely not arrive until sometime in 2015.
One of the most interesting parts of his talk is the one where he mentions that the upcoming Kanye West x adidas collection will release in June. Internal sources have told us now, that in June West will be presenting internally his collection. That means that they are currently working on design and are planning to be finished in June, with the official release actually only planned for Spring 2015. Potentially there will be a first sneaker coming in Fall/Winter 2014, but even that is not confirmed yet. The full collection release is for now realistically planned for January/February 2015.

Earlier the same week, media outlets suggested the new kicks were slated to drop this summer and would be called YEEZi.
“The adidas “YEEZi” is expected this coming June according to an announcement made in Germany today by Kanye West. Photo: @jrplante. Who’s excited?,” a post reads April 7. (Freshness Mag’s Instagram)
