Greggs mocks Kanye West's new £301 Yeezys for looking like 'sausage rolls'

Greggs has made a mockery of Kanye West online, by comparing the design of his latest Yeezy shoe range to a beloved staple product made by the pastry experts.

The 45-year-old rapper and producer from the United States initially began collaborating with Adidas on the shoe line in 2013, and is no stranger to thinking up unusual twists when it comes to creating his world-famous brand.

In May 2022, Kanye and his Yeezy team announced the launch of their brand-new 450 Sulfur shoe in beige. The sock-like fitting shoe retails for a steep price point of £301, and is made up of a knitted material complemented by bone-coloured rope laces.

And although there are many fans of Kanye's interesting designs, The Mirror reports that not everyone likes his eclectic taste. Taking to Twitter on Monday, Greggs poked fun at the design of the new sneakers - comparing them to their nationally famous sausage rolls.

Re-tweeting an image of the shoes, the bakery chain wrote: "Two sausage rolls short of a multipack."

And the hilarious remark didn't go unnoticed - with Greggs fans flooding the comments section to express their humour.

One said: "Just need to pop it in the oven to warm up lol," while another, added: "Looks more like a Cornish pasty."

A third wrote: "Didn't think you could get anything worse than Crocs! (Sorry croc lovers!)," while a fourth, shared: "Whatever you do, don’t chew the shoes."

Another poked fun asking: "Kanye get these in vegan?"
