‘First Kim, now Skechers – When will Kanye stop getting dumped?’: Kanye West Shows Up Uninvited To Skechers HQ To Find New Home For Yeezy Shoes, is Quickly Kicked Out
Kanye West is moving quickly to find a new home for his Yeezy sneakers after Adidas dumped him for anti-Semitic comments. In Manhattan Beach, Los Angeles, he showed up uninvited at the headquarters of Skechers, another sneaker company. The reports state that He tried to meet with Skechers executives at the company’s corporate office but was refused.
After Adidas-Kanye West ended their partnership, the rapper kept a relatively low profile-a decision that left him no longer a billionaire. However, following his controversial Yeezy show at Paris Fashion Week, where he wore a “White Lives Matter” t-shirt, Kanye West’s empire crumbled quickly. A series of increasingly vitriolic rants on social media culminated in anti-Semitic remarks, and he was restricted on Instagram and Twitter. That’s when the rapper started getting abandoned by multiple brands, which was a turning point for him.

Probably the rapper wanted Skechers to be his new partner for the Yeezy shoe brand — acting both as a manufacturer and distributor, just as Adidas did before it dropped him this week. It turned out to be a no-hitter.

Kanye West has literally said he does not read books. You really think he did any research?

“Now, we don't know if Kanye did his research or not, but Skechers is owned and operated by a Jewish family — Robert Greenberg founded it, and his son Michael is currently the President.”

According to TMZ, the rapper may not have done his research, but Skechers was founded by a Jewish family, Robert Greenberg (founder), whose son Michael is currently the company’s president. In light of his anti-Semitic tendencies, he may have picked the wrong tree to bark up.
