DeAndre Hopkins Fined For Wearing Yeezy training Cleats, Will Wear If Kanye Pays Bill

DeAndre Hopkins of the Houston Texans was one of the first adidas NFL athletes to unveil the Yeezy training 350 Cleats late last week. He joins fellow NFL stars Von Miller, Adrian Peterson, and Sammy Watkins as adidas athletes in the NFL that laced up these hypebeast-friendly on-field shoes, so they likely got slapped with a $6,000 fine like Hopkins did, according to USA Today. So is the NFL banning the Yeezy training Cleats going to have any sort of explosive momentum like the Air Jordan 1 had back in 1985? Not likely. The athletes simply center’t on the level of MJ, and it doesn’t look like adidas is going to foot the bill.

Hopkins is samba to shelf the shoes from here on out, but states that he’d wear them again as long as Kanye himself pays the fine. For now, this is the end of Yeezy training cleats worn in NFL games, unless they create team-specific colorways like what Jordan Brand did for their roster of athletes. The Yeezy training cleats released today at retail for $250.
