Fans of adidas Yeezys will be happy to hear adidas will soon start selling Yeezy sneaker once more. adidas CEO Bjorn Gulden has announced that the company will sell ?parts? of the stock and donate part of proceeds to charity. Additionally, Kanye West will also be given 15% commission on all goods sold.
?What we are trying to do over time is to sell parts of these goods and then donate to organizations that help us and that also have been hurt by Kanye?s statements,? Gulden told investors. ?Burning is not the solution.?
The main reason Bjorn Gulden and adidas decided to sell Yeezys again is because there is currently millions of Yeezys with an estimated retail value of $1.3 billion are sitting in storage after their sale was put on hold. As of today, there is no exact date on when Yeezys will be back on shelves, but current rumors suggest that one of the first releases will be an adidas Yeezy Boost 350 Pirate Black restock, which is expected to take place soon.
