After ending its partnership with West’s Yeezy label last month, Gap is now pulling all remaining Yeezy Gap products from its stores and online.
“Antisemitism, racism and hate in any form are inexcusable and not tolerated in accordance with our values,” Gap said.
Luxury retailer Balenciaga has also cut ties with West following his offensive remarks.
“Balenciaga has no longer any relationship nor any plans for future projects related to this artist,” parent company Kering said.
