The Adidas Yeezy 500 was first launched in February 2018 and years later, new colorways of the shoe continue to release. The shoe debuted in the “Blush” makeup via a limited pre-order in New York and Los Angeles before the style received a general launch two months later.
According to @Yeezyinfluence on Instagram, the Adidas Yeezy 500 “Granite” will be released at Adidas.com/Yeezy, Yeezy Supply, and at select Adidas Yeezy stockists in May. Although the info was shared by the aforementioned account, release details for the shoe have not yet been announced by the brand.
