Shortly after the 2016 MTV Video Music Awards, TMZ’s ever-present cameras caught Kanye West saying he wanted to help design uniforms for all public schools in Chicago in an effort to end classism and bullying. He may be moving one step closer to bringing the Yeezy visual aesthetic to a public high school—just not his initial choice of Chicago.
A TMZ report citing anonymous sources has West reportedly eyeing an overhaul of Calabasas High School’s sports uniforms.
“Yeezy wants to take control of the CHS sports uniforms and help to re-brand the entire program,” the report stated. “We’re told Yeezy’s team recently met with school officials to pitch a collaboration between Yeezy and CHS. Our sources say he wants to change the school’s colors and rename them from the Coyotes to the Wolves…fitting, considering he has a song with the same name.”
Aside from calling the San Fernando Valley suburb of Calabasas home, West launched a Calabasas Collection with Adidas in March. The collection, which was modeled by ASAP Nast and Ganna Bogdan, featured track pants, crew necks and the Yeezy Calabasas Powerphase shoe.
West added Calabasas items into the Yeezy Season 5 show at New York Fashion Week in February. The drop was decidedly a family affair, as Kim Kardashian was also spotted in the Yeezy Calabasas Powerphase shoes.
There has been no word of a possible redesign from Calabasas High via the school’s official website or the athletics Twitter account.
