Summary Ye has revealed a first look at the new YEEZY 800 sneaker on Instagram The silhouette features a retro running aesthetic dressed in an all-black finish with textured mesh and nubuck-like overlays Official release dates and pricing details for the model currently remain unconfirmedYEEZY founder Ye has officially revealed a first look at the YEEZY 800, marking the latest independently produced sneaker from the brand.
The model’s name brings back the numbered naming convention featured across many of Ye’s prominent adidas releases, setting the YEEZY 800 apart from recent offerings that utilized abbreviated titles.
Executed in an all-black finish, the upper combines a ballistic mesh tongue with textured panels wrapping the toe and heel areas.
The debut black colorway is currently the only iteration revealed by Ye, though additional finishes may surface as product development continues.
Following recent reports that Yeezy footwear will be carried by select retailers, the model is positioned to become one of the brand’s first post-adidas sneakers to receive broader mainstream retail distribution.
