West’s chief of staff and noted white supremacist Milo Yiannopolous told TMZ they have no idea what happened to the clothes, but noticed a Kanye fan account was advertising an event where people could buy items from the range at a blanket price of $20.
According to TMZ, law enforcement sent officers to the alleged sale of the items.

Apparently, the people in charge of the event told police they had receipts for the items but couldn’t prove that every single item had a purchase receipt.
Police did not take any action or arrest anybody as nobody had filed a complaint.

Yiannopolous told TMZ that they believe the clothing was stolen as they have no record of it being sold and do not sell in bulk. He also claimed to have identified one of the people involved in obtaining the clothing.
They told the tabloid that they have now filed a cease and desist to the sale organizers and intend on getting the clothing back at all costs.

“Not only are they putting out fake colorways that are not approved, they’re suing me for $250,000,000 and they’re also not paying me for these shoes that they’re putting out that have my name on it.
“They’re using contract clauses and 50 years of business experience to rape an artist — one of ya’ll favorite artist — right in front of ya’ll, in broad daylight.”
