Following years of anticipation, the Adidas Yeezy 450 Cloud White sneaker finally released today at 7 a.m — and promptly sold out within a minute. By 7:01 a.m, the unconventional shoe went out of stock on the Adidas app and Yeezysupply.com. It’s now already being offered on the resale market for upwards of $900.

Kanye West first teased these sneakers on social media during summer 2018 with sketches alluding to its controversial design. The pair has also been spotted on several stylish celebrities including Gigi and Bella Hadid just weeks before their widespread release.
These coveted 450 Cloud White sneakers feature a sock-style silhouette with mesh uppers, a lace-up vamp and a statement EVA midsole and outer sole hybrid. They initially retailed for $200.
