Love them or hate them, Kanye West’s Yeezy sneakers are often the center of attention in the footwear world. With Kanye’s Yeezy 450 Sulfur having been out for a few months, fan account Yeezy Mafia wanted to test the waters on the reception of the kicks on Monday (July 11).
While there’s been a mixed reaction to the sneakers, one British bakery chain named Greggs decided to have some fun at Kanye’s expense and it’s safe to say they weren’t fans of the cream-colored 450s.
“Two Sausage Rolls short of a multipack,” Greggs’ official Twitter account joked.
Greggs knows a thing or two about sausage rolls and the playful jab went over well with their fan base as the tweet accumulated well over 2,000 likes.
The Sulfur colorway arrived in May for a retail price of $200. They are currently available on re-sale marketplaces such as StockX for close to their retail value, so demand doesn’t appear to be as high as some other Yeezy releases.
As far as what’s ahead on the Yeezy calendar, three colorways of slides will arrive on July 25 with a pair of Yeezy 700s hitting online retailers in August.
It’s been an up-and-down week for the always-turbulent world of Kanye West.

Those are just $200 pair of new balance shoes. A celebrity can sell yall anything and yall go crazy for it just because of who they are.
You got it!
All Yeezys look like layless shoes kicks
MY grandpa used to wear these when I was a kid in the 90s
They look like a pair of croissant slippers that ain’t been baked? Supa ugly! Why ye always make his gear look like street wear for the homeless? I wouldn’t wipe my ass wit these!!
All Yeezy footwear, without exception, is hideously ugly, and anyone who buys them are tasteless mugs.
Nah not all most but not all
OVER PRICED GARBAGE. I KNOW THESE WILL SELL ON NAME RECOGNITION ALONE.
I bet they are comfortable like all the rest of his shoe and slides. Bet y’all will get a pair just like me lol
You’re a spineless sheep.
How the fuck is this even a news story.
Yeezys are what happens when people stop telling rich people the truth.
Yeezy are the shoe version of mumble rap.
Like all yeezys I wouldn’t wear em if u paid me. Every one is uglier than the last. I mean does he show up at kindergartens and ask kids if they wanna design some shoes? I guess nowadays all u have to do is b famous and put a ridiculous price tag on things. Honestly idk who’s shoes r worse big baller brand or yeezy.
