Kanye has not promoted the line on his personal social media accounts. However, the brand’s official Yeezy Mafia Twitter account informed its customers and followers that the Yeezy Slide will be restocked at some point in June.

Not everyone is a fan of the slides, though. And some users who dislike the style have even questioned how the shoes sell out time and time again.

“I think the nursing home bought the entire lot,” one Twitter user joked. “They ran out of those ugly, but comfortable croc looking things #yeezyslide.”

“I remember y’all saying Yeezy Slides were ugly, [but] now they sold out,” another user wrote with a raised eyebrow and monocle emoji.
