YS-01 Black

The YZY YS 01 Black is a design created exclusively by Ye, formerly known as Kanye West. The model belongs to the independent YZY line and was not developed in collaboration with adidas. Structurally, it is similar to earlier Yeezy Slide flip-flops, but it does not feature the adidas branding that appeared on models created as part of the previous collaboration.The silhouette is based on a wide, one-piece construction with a closed-toe design and a completely open heel. The upper covers the midfoot and flows seamlessly into the high sides of the sole. The rounded toe, wide base, and raised line around the interior create the compact proportions characteristic of this style of slide.The entire shoe is finished in a uniform black color. The same shade covers the upper, the interior, the edges, and the outsole. The absence of contrasting panels, prints, and visible branding means that the design itself takes center stage. The black surface clearly showcases the curved lines, variations in material thickness, and deep grooves featured in the lower section. GOAT classifies this variant as black flip-flops made of synthetic material.The YZY YS 01 Black is made of molded plastic with a uniform structure. The design does not use textile panels, lacing, straps, or separately attached elements. The wide opening makes it easy to slip the foot in, and the raised edges help position the foot inside the shoe. The absence of seams and traditional joints maintains a continuous surface from the front all the way to the back of the sole.The lower section accounts for most of the shoe’s volume. Deep cuts divide the sole into distinct segments, and the wide profile increases the contact area with the ground. The YZY YS 01 Black maintains the minimalist design of the YZY line, based on a single material, a solid color, and the absence of adidas branding.
