Walmart Removes Sandals Kanye West Claimed In a Lawsuit were ‘Virtually Indistinguishable’ from His Yeezy Foam Runners
After being sued by
Kanye West over allegations that it was selling a pair of sandals that were “virtually indisguisable” from his Yeezy Foam Runners, Walmart has removed the shoe from its website.
According to TMZ, Walmart removed all the pairs of Beige Daeful Mens Womens Kids Summer Beach Shoes Foam Runner Anti Slipper Sandals from their site as requested in West’s lawsuit. However, the media outlet says there are still “hundreds” of copies of the alleged knockoffs available online through e-commerce sites like Etsy, where a pair is being sold from $30 to $60. The publication stated that one online store is even labeling the footwear as “Yeezy Inspired,” but are strikingly similar to West’s design. As of late, there’s no word on if the “Jesus Walks” emcee will be in contact with the other retailers to have them take their merchandise down.
