Kanye West Updates YEEZY Website With New Footwear
Ye (formerly Kanye West) is giving fans another look at what’s next for YEEZY. The yeezy.com website has been updated with new footwear, including the upcoming YEEZY 800s and the AB-01 Alpha Boots.
The update comes as Ye continues building YEEZY independently following his split with adidas. His current footwear strategy has increasingly focused on original silhouettes rather than revisiting the designs from his former partnership.
New YEEZY 800 Colorways Arrive
The YEEZY 800 is one of the most anticipated additions to Ye’s latest footwear lineup. The chunky runner features a layered construction and a futuristic aesthetic that fits within the broader direction of the new YEEZY collection.
The latest update shows the 800 in several new color combinations, moving beyond the darker and more monochromatic versions previously seen. Fans have already reacted positively to the introduction of more color into the silhouette, with blue, yellow, and other vibrant tones appearing among the recently previewed options.
The 800s have yet to receive a confirmed retail release date, but their appearance on the YEEZY website suggests that a wider launch could be getting closer.

YEEZY AB-01 Alpha Boots Also Revealed
Alongside the Yeezy 800s, Ye has added the AB-01 Alpha Boots to the website.
The Alpha Boots continue Ye’s interest in oversized, futuristic footwear and feature a tall boot construction that gives them a dramatically different look from the 800. The silhouette has previously been teased alongside other unreleased YEEZY footwear, making its appearance on the website another indication that Ye is preparing to expand his post-adidas catalog.
According to the new drop, the AB-01 Alpha Boots are expected to arrive in December 2026, although an official release date and pricing have yet to be announced.
Ye Is Expanding YEEZY Beyond the adidas Era
The latest website update is another sign that Ye is attempting to establish a new chapter for YEEZY without adidas.
Since the partnership ended, YEEZY has introduced several independently produced footwear models, including the YS-01 slide. Ye’s independent operation has also begun moving back toward traditional retail, with YEEZY footwear recently becoming available through JD Sports.
The new 800s and AB-01 Alpha Boots could represent an important next step for the brand. Rather than relying on familiar adidas era silhouettes, Ye appears to be developing a new footwear ecosystem around original designs.
When Will the YEEZY 800s and AB-01 Alpha Boots Release?
For now, an exact release date and pricing for the YEEZY 800s have not been officially confirmed but much like the AB-01’s they are advertised as shipping in December 2026.
With both models now appearing as part of the updated YEEZY website, however, it appears that Ye has more new footwear on the way.
