After sharing a glimpse at his creative process on Sunday night with mockups of an early Yeezy Boost 350 and Yeezy 1050 boots, Kanye West pulled back the curtain again today with more footwear design musings.

West took to Twitter to share a shot of his Yeezy Season 6 Desert Rat boots with the Adidas Yeezy Boost 700 "Wave Runner" in the background. Kanye writes that he worked on the production of the boot for six months.

"I'm super happy with them. I'm excited about the ability to give a boot the true Yeezy shape. Feels more future," he said, presumably in reference to the shoe's sneaker-like silhouette as opposed to the roomier profile of a traditional boot.

The Yeezy Season 6 Desert Rat boots are available now from select retailers.
