Yeezy is always coming up with the most unique shoes that are fit for comfort.

However, a new release has got people questioning if they really are shoes.

The Yeezy 450 "Sulfur", which features dynamic lines and tightened bands around the ankle for a more secure fit, was released on 7 May priced at USD200 (about RM888.40).

A Twitter account that goes by the handle @theyeezymafia posted a picture of the shoes asking for netizens' opinion on them.

Some were quick to comment on how uncanny the resemblance between the shoe and durian is
