Kanye West’s “Sulfur Yellow” Adidas Yeezy Boost 700

Kanye West’s team-up with footwear maker Adidas on the Yeezy line first dropped with the 750 in 2015. It’s going to

collectors upwards of $1,000 or $1,500 to even get near a pair of those. Fortunately, the partnership has been steadily bringing out new editions and limited colors. The new 700 “Sulfur Yellows” are some of the most subtly complex so far.

The new edition Yeezy Boost 700 follows a string of releases that take a big dose of inspiration from the original Yeezy 700 model. The “Sulfur Yellow” colorway has just been added to the creative genius’ Spring release calendar, unveiled courtesy of Yeezy Mafia and expected to be available in the next couple of months. This will continue throughout 2022 as Ye‘s Yeezy footwear catalog is expected to drop out a number of new colorways in the coming months.

The “Sulfur Yellow” color scheme flashes a pale olive-yellow upper transitioning to areas of husk yellow and taupe on the toe cap, with charcoal and tan patterning situated around the sole and midfoot areas of the sneaker.

This is mated with a solid dark oak brown sole unit that sports circular perforations typical to all Yeezy Boost 700 models. In addition, the sneaker flashes its signature reflective 3M on the side as well as underneath the mesh on the midfoot portion of the shoe. Remember, this reflector is a good way to test if your Boost 700s are the real thing.

The new drop doesn’t skimp on its ingredients either, as “Sulfur Yellow” sports the same high-quality materials other Yeezy Boost 700 models are manufactured from. This means mesh, buttery leather, and smooth suede used throughout the sneaker’s construction.

The Yeezy Boost 700 “Sulfur Yellow” is expected to release at a retail price of $240.

Showing off a striking contrast of “Solid Grey/Chalk White/Core Black,” the shoes flash with a dash of blue and orange on their outsoles and wrap up with neon green laces and sculpted white midsoles.

Recreate the viral red carpet look
Timothee Chalamet bust

There are few names that are trending upward in Hollywood more than Timothee Chalamet. He is one of the most lauded actors in big blockbusters like Dune and its sequel, Interstellar, and Wonka, and he is also taking the world by storm with incredible performances in more reward-focused films like Lady Bird and Call Me By Your Name. Recently, he made splashes this award season for his true story biopic of Bob Dylan, A Complete Unknown. While we loved his nominations, awards, and speeches, we would be lying if we didn't get distracted by his stellar red carpet looks. Not only are we excited about his stellar look at the Academy Awards nomination dinner from GapStudio, but now you can recreate it with a limited edition recreation from on GAP.

While most men love to adopt the all-black look for evening dinner events, Chalamet elected to go with a more dressed-down look, more closely resembling something fitting for his Bob Dylan role.
