After being dumped from Adidas, Kanye West’s attempts to lure footwear brand Skechers into a deal have led to him being escorted from its offices.
After West made several anti-Semitic comments, Adidas cut ties this week. Now, it seems West is shopping around for another shoe offer.
West turned up at Skechers corporate office in LA. However, he was escorted off the premises, and the footwear brand has made it clear it has no plans of entertaining a working relationship with the disgraced rapper.
After Adidas dropped Kanye West, he showed up today at the LA office of another shoe company, unannounced and uninvited, with a film crew. He was escorted out.
The company was Skechers.
Yes, this really happened.

The footwear brand Sketchers released a statement over the matter and wrote: “Kanye West – also referred to as Ye – arrived unannounced and without invitation at one of Skechers’ corporate offices in Los Angeles.
“Considering Ye was engaged in unauthorized filming, two Skechers executives escorted him and his party from the building after a brief conversation. Skechers is not considering and has no intention of working with West.
“We condemn his recent divisive remarks and do not tolerate antisemitism or any other form of hate speech. The Company would like to again stress that West showed up unannounced and uninvited to Skechers corporate offices.”
Ouch.
