Founded in 1917, fashion brand Balenciaga has become a symbol of luxury and a favorite of the Hip Hop community. But that could possibly change.
After the company — which is now owned by French multinational company Kering — posted an ad on Instagram featuring a man wearing blue leopard print leggings and matching heels, people lost it.
PnB Rock wrote commented under the photo, “Unfollowed tf,” while Souljaboy echoed a similar sentiment with a simple “Wtf.”
Producer Sonny Digital was a little more vocal about his response to the controversial ad.
“First they tried y’all with the Sketchers remake now they doing this,” he wrote in the comment section. “At this point I’m just wondering who ima see with these on first.”
The original photo was posted on Balenciaga’s Instagram account last week. The comments range from disbelief to shock. Several commenters denounced the brand and instantaneously pulled their support.

You already know Young Thug gonna be on board for that.
Shit,Thugga and Birdman already called next on this dude…SMH.
Let met get one in every color
Man they better claimed they were hacked……
This is how new rappers will look by 2020.
Jaden Smith got the matching bra and fox tail but plug, all made by Sean John. Soddom and gomorrah, END OF TIME BITCHES!
lol thats what i think of when i think of this generation of rappers lol
(relax not all of them) just 90%
Wow thats y we need real hiphop right now
Young thug is on his way to get this fit in every available color
Doubt they have this in prison
Asap Rocky already contacting them for a deal to be their next model to prance about in leggings and high heels. Oh and if white peopel did these the je.vv.s would be callin them racist and homophobic but when black people say these things its “kosher”.
This manufactured outrage is blown up artificially and on purpose. The tribe who controls the planet by owning all media, banks and politicians, wants black people to not be gay. They want black people to be hetero so they can have families and make many children. But for white people, the same tribe doesnt want the same. They want the exact opposite. They want white people to be homosexual, transgender etc leading up to no heterosexual relationships between two white people and thus no white children being born. Also the same tribe for this reason promotes interracial relationships, both these things are weapons against white people. This tribe’s agenda is white genocide.
Wow stupidest shit I’ve ever heard ever
bro, listen to yourself. you think youre ever going to get pussy talking like that?
Shoutout to Balenciaga for exposing everybody who rock there clothes. This why I only wear Signature TOIDi nowadays.
Tunechi been rocked the leopard leggings…years ago.
yea… nah
Real men know how to rock heels.
I thought new rappers get fashion sense from the gay community. I don’t understand the outrage
If you the type of person wearing this foofoo sh*t, you ain’t too far removed from this to begin with…
This. Aint. It. Chief… Lol!
Abandon?! These cornball lil/young/pill popping/lean drinking mumblers prolly gonna wear it more, prolly them exact pants and high heel shoes
Advertisement or not, Balenciaga clothing is ugly. You can buy the same apparel (or even better) at the thrift store.
If ya ain’t get mad at young thug or lil Uzi….I don’t see why ya tripping for….
Most of the ppl rocking this brand is wearing suss shit as well.
