Kanye West's lawsuit against Walmart is having an effect — the retailer has reportedly pulled its Yeezy knockoff shoes from its online store.
Last week, the rapper (who owns the Yeezy brand) took legal action against the biggest retailer in the world for selling footwear that looked similar to his Yeezy brand "Foam Runner" shoes. "Walmart is flagrantly trading off of his and Yeezy brand's popularity by offering for sale an imitation version of the Yeezy Foam Runner," the lawsuit said.

Walmart pulled the shoes quickly after the lawsuit was filed, TMZ reported. The retailer, for that matter, said the online listings were from a third party.
Knockoffs are still listed elsewhere online.
When Walmart was selling its foam shoe, Kanye's team said it could cost the Yeezy brand "hundreds of millions."
"Walmart's conduct is harming, and will continue to harm, West and Yeezy, leaving them no choice but (to sue) to stop Walmart's unfair competition and profiting from the popularity of the success of West and Yeezy," the lawsuit stated.
Kanye also had an issue with the quality of the Walmart foam shoe.
"Not only are West and Yeezy losing market share for their authentic Yeezy Foam Runner, but also their reputation and the goodwill of the Yeezy brand is being harmed by the association with the Imitation Shoe given its subpar quality, as evidenced by the consumer comments shown from the Walmart website," the lawsuit said.
