Kanye West’s highly anticipated Yeezy Gap x Balenciaga collaboration is finally available to shop.
Officially titled Yeezy Gap Engineered by Balenciaga, the project was announced last month and
was intended to be released at 9 a.m. ET on Feb. 22, but was pushed back to the same time on Feb.
The West-designed items — which are now available to shop online from both Yeezy Gap and
and Demna’s shared vision of utilitarian design,” according to a press release received by Page Six
Style.
They include a denim jacket and matching jeans, a pair of sweatpants and a range of logo tees and
hoodies in a handful of new colors and washes. A dove print “represents an unnamed hope for the
future.”

Prices range from $120 for a T-shirt to $240 for the dove hoodie, $220 for the jean pants and $440 for the padded denim jacket.
Those steep costs are pretty standard for West, 44, who sold a so-called “Perfect Hoodie” for $90 and a “Round Jacket” for $200 as part of his primary Gap collaboration (although both pieces can fetch far higher prices on the resale market).Kanye West’s new Yeezy Gap Engineered by Balenciaga collection includes new versions of his “Perfect Hoodie.”GAP
