Kanye West's Yeezy clothing line under fire as customers wait over eight months for their orders to arrive

Some fashion fans have been left furious after reportedly waiting over eight months for their orders from Kanye West 's Yeezy clothing line to arrive. The rapper, 48, announced a new collection from the controversial brand last week, but many former customers have warned potential buyers not to purchase from the company due to potential shipping delays. Customers flooded the comments section of the official Yeezy Instagram page to complain that their orders still hadn't arrived yet. 'Do not buy from this brand. I ordered several products back in October 2024 and it never arrived,' claimed one. 'I ordered like six things on the first drop that got that s**t like a year later,' wrote a second. A third wrote, 'Still haven't got my order from January 13th,' while another jokes, 'Y'all not gonna get them until 2027.' Others mocked Yeezy's designs, with one social media user commenting, 'This is proof that y'all will buy anything.' 'Make something other than these depressing ass clothes man,' another commented.

'I like how his stuff is cheap, especially in today's economy,' gushed one. 'The boots aren't that bad and if they feel like the slides I just might buy them,' added another. Some customers also insisted that their orders had arrived in a timely manner. 'Hate all y'all want, but I got all seven of my items last drop,' commented one. This is far from the first time that West's Yeezy brand has come under fire. In February, the rapper sparked widespread outrage after selling swastika T-shirts for $20. The move was even more outrageous given that West advertised the antisemitic attire at the 2025 Super Bowl. 'I've wanted to make this tee shirt for years,' he wrote on his X account, accompanied by a photo of the product. 'My greatest performance art piece thus far.' Last month, West's Australian visa was canceled after he released a song praising Adolf Hitler. The track, titled Heil Hitler, was dropped by the singer on May 8 and was deemed to be 'promoting Nazism.' Last month, West upset some of his fans after showing up late to a concert in China. The disgraced 48-year-old rapper, who now goes by Ye, was nearly an hour late to perform at the Shanghai Stadium because of heavy rain which soaked audiences in the open-air arena. While the set was scheduled for 7.30pm, it has been said that Kanye didn't take to the stage until 8.10pm, according to local media, and by this point the crowd – made up of around 70,000 people - were restless and chanting for their money back. Following the gig, West took to social media where he praised audiences for their 'energy'. Posting on X, he said: 'Thank you to my fans in China and the Chinese government. The energy was amazing. 'Love all of you forever Can't wait till the next show.' Although Kanye appeared to ignore the backlash, some furious fans took to social media to complain about the show – and one went as far as saying it was the 'worst concert' they've been to. One said: 'Shanghai consumers DO NOT PLAY. Massive crowd was shouting REFUND after Ye was late 40 minutes to his concert.'

Survey responses from 205 mid to large New Zealand construction businesses found nearly all (99 percent) decision makers were either actively implementing or exploring cost-saving strategies to maintain their competitive edge. Businesses were looking to invest more in technology (68 percent) to improve planning and project management, though less than half (47 percent) were looking to hire more staff. Operational inefficiencies were dragging down project delivery and profitability with 96 percent reporting additional costs arising from delays or reduced productivity. In addition, 94 percent said they had been adversely affected by tariffs , shipping delays and shifting trade regulations in the past year.
