Skechers issued a press release after West’s visit and emphasized that he “arrived unannounced and uninvited.” “Given that Ye was involved in unauthorized filming, two Skechers executives escorted him and his entourage from the building, after a brief conversation,” the statement continued.

West’s ex-wife Kim Kardashian has worked with Skechers in the past, but the shoe brand says it has zero plans to team up with the troubled rapper. Skechers is operated by a Jewish family, the Greenbergs – it is unclear if West knew this before his arrival. “We condemn his recent divisive words and do not tolerate anti-Semitism or any other form of hate speech. The company would like to emphasize once again that West showed up unannounced and uninvited to the Skechers corporate offices,” said the brand’s official statement.
