It will be a Q/A day with him ! I'll ask him about Yeezy if no official announce until this day !

Shame on Nike for not giving Kanye 5% on the Yeezys profit....
Lets see what Kanye can do now that he cant use the Jordan, 3, 4, nike court, and other Nike midsoles and toeboxes for his template.......
Kanye sold out to be honest. He criticizes others for selling out. But he sold out. Sacrificing his desires for $. Can't hate him for getting his royalties, but he is a hypocrite.
He sacrificed his love for Nikes for $. Hypocrite. But like I said, I don't blame him. He deserves royalties"Can I sell a drink for you please? So you can help me put on a better show. Please corporations. Can you please support me, Kanye West? I swear I’m a nice n**** now. I swear I’ll put the pink polo back on. I swear to you. Please? Just for three million dollars. I need it so bad. I need a new pool in my back yard. So I’ll tell all my fans your s*** is cool. And if they believe in me they should also believe in you... What’s my public rating now? Are people liking me again? Enough to get some money for some corporations? They forgot about the whole Beyoncé thing right? Okay cool."

He said they gave him the opportunity to do 2 collections a year. And he said he loves Nikes. But when it came down to $, Nike said no royalties so he went to adidas.
This is what he said about Beyonce's Pepsi commercials.

When he refers to the "Beyonce thing" he isn't talking about her commercials, he is talking about BEYONCE HAD THE BEST VIDEO OF ALL TIME.

Just make the announcement already if these will be available or not.
I don't blame him one bit but it doesn't mean I gotta like it. I wanted to see the Yeezy 3 so bad!
I'm saying. Everything else is irrelevant.
You will. By Adidas.
Yeezy 3's won't be based on a Nike model or Nike sole.. This will be interesting
Kanye signed a contract. Why sign if you wanted royalties?
You sure?Yeezy 3's won't be based on a Nike model or Nike sole.. This will be interesting
This is just me using my common sense and intuitive abilities. Something which a lot of people don't seem to possess.

And, again, his delusions of grandeur thinking that 5% of Yeezys sales would net anything close to the 100 mill Jordan is getting.
500k of one pair of retros vs. 15k of Yeezy 1-2 total?
He would of gotten thousands in royalties not millions, and he obviously basing the success of the shoe on resell value.

You get your foot in the door first, then once you gain some leverage, you demand more once the time to renegotiate your contract comes. Royalties probably weren't a part of the initial deal, but once Kanye's superstardom grew and his stock increased, he wanted and demanded more. It's what anybody with half a brain would do.
In the BBC interview he spoke of stores like Zara and H&M and wanting to provide product for the average person on a larger scale. Also more affordable. So based on that alone, it seems to be like Kanye is pushing for a wider GR release of product with his name on it.
As far as Yeezy sales being minuscule, I'm sure that can be attributed to the amount released. It's a cult shoe because it was released as a cult shoe. It was meant to be small scale. I'm sure Kanye is projecting a wider released Yeezy to do Jordan numbers, which is a point I would raise during any renegotiation with Nike, so I'm sure he wouldn't have hesitated to make that same point during discussions.

...AKA a new/renegotiated contract.Yeahh about this... You're both incorrect. Those royalties would be coming after a 30 SKU / year contract. Much bigger difference than a couple of pairs of Yeezys every few years.
