The unexpected pair make an appearance in the magazine's 'Power 100' issue.

Kanye West‘s barber, Ibu Jasper, has revealed what appears to be the Yeezus rapper’s Adidas collaboration.

The day after West launched a website, yeezy.supply, reportedly tied to the line, Jasper posted several photos of a soft grey high-top, offering a 360-degree view. He then showed a photo of West (above) wearing those same sneakers while appearing alongside Rihanna and Paul McCartney; all three of them are set for the live debut of collaboration “FourFiveSeconds” at the 57th Grammy Awards. (Update: Rihanna confirms that they were rehearsing for the Grammys when this photo was snapped.)

Rapper-singer Theophilus London added on Instagram that, while the shoe will be available only in “Yeezi” grey, it can also be worn five different ways thanks to its thick elastic band over the instep — he has since deleted his post. Meanwhile, earlier this week fashion buyer Ramon Ehlen revealed that West has been sending invites for the New York Fashion Week debut of his Adidas collection.

So while the rapper has been trying to maintain this air of mystery around the collaboration, those close to him can barely contain their excitement for what’s in store.
