UPDATE 2/9/16 (6:13 p.m.): Gore-Tex, the technical fabric manufacturer known for its weatherproof materials decided to publically thank Yeezus for being included on his recently revealed Yeezy 1050 boot. Through it's official North American Twitter account, Gore-Tex expressed its surprise at being featured in a Kanye West tweet, summing up their excitement with a reference to the Internet classic, "David After Dentist."

Kanye's gearing up for Yeezy Season 3, dropping a brand new teaser video along with a slew of images from the upcoming collection on his (occasionally raucous) Twitter account. While Season 3 fitting images have been the most prevalent pictures to grace the timeline today, Yeezus also used social media to tease his new boot model—aptly titled the Yeezy 1050. 

A clear successor to the boot from Yeezy Season 1 and Yeezy Season 2—aka the Yeezy 950—this new boot appears to have enhanced the details from the former boot model. While the Yeezy 1050 has a similar, duck boot-style silhouette to its predcessor, it also boasts new, more subtle details, including a sockliner and Gore-Tex waterproofing.
