Which musician collaborated with adidas on the Yeezy Boost 350 sneaker?

The story behind the answer

Kanye West collaborated with adidas on the Yeezy Boost 350 sneaker.

The Yeezy Boost 350 was part of the adidas Yeezy footwear and apparel partnership with Kanye West. The first Yeezy Boost 350 released in 2015 and used adidas Boost cushioning in a low-cut knit sneaker designed for lifestyle wear. Its launch helped make limited-release sneakers a central part of contemporary streetwear culture.

The Yeezy line had existed before the adidas partnership: West previously worked with Nike and later with adidas. The adidas collaboration expanded into multiple silhouettes, including the Yeezy Boost 350 V2, which became especially recognizable for its knit upper and side stripe.

Kanye West legally changed his name to Ye in 2021, but the collaboration and its historical branding are generally identified with Kanye West. Pharrell Williams also has a major adidas partnership, but he did not create the Yeezy Boost 350.
