The Pusha T Adidas Ozweego are already loose. Rapper Pusha T this week released the second collection of his expensive Ozweego sneakers, this time in collaboration with the video game Call of duty. Y the response from the fans has not been good. Just a week after the Supreme collaboration with Nike Air Force I, King Push presents us some shoes that leave no one indifferent. Although they don't have the price of a Yeezy, they don't have the design either.
⭐Pusha T Adidas Ozweego x Call of Duty
Not only do these Adidas Ozweego Pusha T sneakers have a somewhat questionable design which hardly differs from the original black and white Ozweego. They also have a price retail of 150 dollars. Are we facing a product to match or a cheap joke?
The collaboration between the rapper Daytona (best hip hip album of 2018) and Adidas dates back to late 2019, when Pusha T released the first batch of Ozweego. And although the shoes are trading well on StockX (the leading resale website for supreme items and other brands of the style), the design of the Adidas Pusha T is questionable from day 1.
? Opinions about the Adidas Ozweego PUSHA T
“In Adidas they are incredibly lazy. It's insulting," says a reader of Hypebeast, Web of reference in everything related to popular urban fashion (and exorbitant prices). We can also read comments like “Adidas is going to hit it with these” or "If you want to be laughed at, put them on." If we go to the publication of Instagram on the rapper's account, things don't get any better: "I love Push, but this is trash," it's the slightest of niceties.
Certainly, to us the Pusha T Adidas OzweegoT they remind us of classic cheap sneakers from neighborhood store that our mother wanted to put on us every time we suggested she buy us Air Force 1s. The problem is that these are just as ugly and 15 times more expensive. Do you think it's for that? leave us a comment. The fact that they are sponsored by Call of Duty: Modern Warfare it also highlights the high possibility that they are laughing at us. Pure and simple marketing. Anything goes? What does Pusha T have to do with the video game? More importantly, did Push really need this in his career?
? Sneakers designed by rappers: Blame it on Kanye
The case of the Pusha T Adidas Ozweego is just one more grain of sand in the desert. Today people like Travis Scott collaborates with Nike designing his own Air Force, and Eminem invests in the future of the StockX sneaker trading website (more details of this bizarre Eminem news here). It is difficult to mark on the calendar the date on which the matter of overpriced sneakers became status quo. What we can do is name one of the main responsible: Kanye West, the rapper of Christ.
If the Pusha T Adidas Call of Duty are pretty, we really don't understand anything anymore.
Kanye West was not the first rapper to be associated with a brand (that medal goes to RUN DMC and his song We Adidas). But he was the first MC directly involved in the design of a shoe with a first division firm (first Nike and then Adidas). We can give a similar title to Michael Jordan, the African American who really started this new segment of footwear cool And expensive.
? Yeezy's are getting old
Ten years ago Kanye West released the Nike Air Yeezy. Mythical shoe model (these yes, somewhat prettier and more daring, in our opinion) which was followed by a second edition and, after creative differences, the abandonment of Nike and the signing by Adidas, where the affair / joke ended up exploding from the everything. Over the past decade, Adidas has struck gold with Kanye West's Yeezys, despite (or thanks to) the number of Yeezy's that arrived at the stores was extremely limited.

Although the Adidas Yeezy have depreciated quite a bit in recent years (because Adidas increased the stock, finished with said spirit of exclusivity), in 2015 it was normal to see auctions of sneakers designed by Kanye West that reached $1.500.
As ugly as the Adidas Ozweego Pusha Ts are, they are already being resold at prices above what they cost in stores. Will this trend continue? Are we facing a bubble that will inevitably end up bursting? Do you think the Ozweego Call of Duty are pretty? Leave us a comment. It's free.
