Yeezy is Kanye West's design brand with Adidas. Industrial designers, shoe designers, and footwear designers design shoes for Ye. Yeezy 350 v2, Yeezy 700, and Yeezy Foam Runner Foamrunner are all shoes that Kanye West has designed. Kanye West "Ye" is a famous musician, but does that translate to good design?
