The Yeezy 500 was the first of Kanye and adidas venture to ditch the Boost technology. These runners came with the Avant-garde notion of 'feet your wear' sole in the adidas family. The futuristic sole actually is almost 20 years old, having first debuted on Kobe Bryant's then-signature sneaker—the Adidas KB8 III—in 1999. The shoe released back in 2018 at a retail of $200 USD.
