Finally, the YEEZY GAP Hoodie Is Here
Following a handful of previous releases and yet another countdown on GAP's website, the next YEEZY GAP collaboration has finally been released.
Thus far, we've seen the Round Jacket release in a handful of colorways including blue, black, and red (also worn by Kanye throughout his DONDA listening party tour), with a selection of pieces still rumored to be on their way.
Reportedly, the jacket has been a huge hit for GAP, drawing new and younger customers to purchase the $200 piece.
GAP has now released the hoodies, which were originally first rumored to drop social media. The piece arrives in a total of six colorways, all dropping at once which is a new approach from YEEZY x GAP seeing as all previous releases have only featured one item.
The 100% cotton, double-layered garment is available in six colors: black, brown, purple, blue, red, and mustard. It's also priced at $90 USD in adult sizes and $70 for kids.
Kanye has been rumored to have worn the hoodie prototype on several occasions, which demonstrates the voluminous hood and cropped, baggy body.
Already, the YEEZY GAP hoodies are receiving mixed reactions from fans, who are upset with the price tag given that the collection was meant to be affordable and accessible for all. Still, compared to the YEEZY SEASON hoodies — which retailed for nearly $400 — $90 is practically a steal.
Still, if that's too high, perhaps consider a mainline GAP hoodie, which has seen boosted attention according to GAP INC. CEO Sonia Syngal.
"Our classic Gap hoodie is having a moment, so much so that we reissued it in a vintage brown for preorder delivering this fall," she said during an earnings call this summer.
If you're looking to get your hands on one, make sure to head over to the GAP website before they're all sold out, though they won't ship for "two to eight weeks," GAP says. The website is already bending under the weight of the crush of traffic.
