On September 29, 2018, Kim Kardashian was photographed in New York City with her children, North, Saint, and Chicago.

While the outing coincided with a high-profile weekend for the family in Manhattan, the real standout was Kim’s commitment to a bold, monochromatic aesthetic that defined her street style during this era.

Stepping out from her hotel, she opted for a vibrant, tonal ensemble that balanced technical athletic wear with high-fashion tailoring.
The look serves as a clear example of her early pivot toward the “pantaboot” and spandex-heavy silhouettes that would become a staple of her wardrobe in the years to follow.

Kim centered the monochrome look around a bright pink zip-up top styled with matching Balenciaga stretch-satin skinny pants and a pair of Yeezy Boost 700 V2 “Static” sneakers, one of the most recognizable chunky runners from Kanye West’s Adidas Yeezy era.
Released on December 29, 2018, with an original retail price of $300, the Yeezy Boost 700 V2 “Static” arrived during the height of the “dad shoe” era and quickly became one of the most sought-after colorways in the 700 line.
The Adidas Yeezy Boost 700 V2 “Static” combines layered mesh, suede, and reflective 3M detailing with a sculpted Boost-cushioned sole, making it one of the defining luxury “dad sneakers” of the late 2010s
The silhouette blended retro running-shoe proportions with a cleaner mix of white, gray, and cream tones, combining layered mesh, suede, and leather panels with reflective 3M detailing and a sculpted sole built around Adidas’ full-length Boost cushioning.
Despite the end of Adidas Yeezy production, the “Static” has remained one of the line’s strongest performers on the resale market thanks to its versatile neutral palette and everyday wearability. Recent StockX sales in spring 2026 ranged from roughly $230 to over $340, depending on size and condition, with several larger sizes selling above retail more than seven years after the sneaker’s original release.

The sneaker’s bulky-yet-minimal aesthetic worked naturally with Kim Kardashian’s stretch-heavy Balenciaga separates, reinforcing the body-conscious, tonal styling direction that would later become central to both her Yeezy wardrobe and her Balenciaga era.
How Kim Kardashian Turned Monochrome Athleisure Into a Fashion Signature
Long before second-skin catsuits and pantaboots became inseparable from Kim Kardashian’s Balenciaga era, she was already experimenting with tonal stretch silhouettes, Yeezy sneakers, and body-conscious styling on the streets of New York.
These looks helped define a new celebrity fashion formula—one built around sculpted jersey, monochrome layering, and footwear that blurred the line between athleticwear and luxury fashion.
