I joined Kanye West fans to dig through those viral trash bags full of his new Gap line. Employees didn't let us get very far.

As Insider's Anneta Konstantinides reported, one Twitter user shared a photo of Yeezy clothes at Gap and said a sales associate told them the rapper "got mad" when he saw his apparel on hangers — inspiring the new trash-style display.

The presentation also mirrors Ye's dumpster-style pop-up shops he hosted in July, as Dezeen reported, where shoppers "dumpster dived" for clothes they wanted to buy.

As I approached the store, I noticed a nondescript Yeezy advertisement hanging in the window.

The dark sign had two white doves surrounded by gray clouds, and a small, Gap-style logo that said "Yzy." With all the surrounding neon lights, it was tough to see clearly.

The display had a center spot in the front of the store — which was impossible for shoppers to miss — and a muted-gray carpet in place of the Gap's tan, wooden floors.

One shopper I spoke with — Andre Portillo, 20, from New Jersey — said he's "a big fan of Kanye" and visited the store specifically because he was intrigued by "the way he's selling" the line.

"Style is everything, and this gives a lot more reason to shop," he said.

The employees I met were kind and helpful, but understandably hesitant to have shoppers unfold every sweatshirt and make a mess to find their size.

That said, they gave me space to browse and seemingly had no problem with me unfolding different pieces to see them more clearly.

But in reality, everything was well organized. I noticed a plastic divider separating different items, and a black, plastic lining underneath each pile of clothing.

A little digging was required to find different sizes when employees weren't around, but it wasn't nearly as much work as the musician seemingly aimed for.

When designers collaborate with affordable brands — like Target teaming up with Rodarte and H&M working with Moschino — items are typically quick to sell out. But that doesn't seem to be the case with this Yeezy line.

"You can tell that the bags are really full, and they've been there a while," shopper Katherine Navaro, 18, said of the line.

Because I noticed the same thing, I peeled back some the plastic lining in one bag. Underneath, I found stacked boxes of Yeezy clothes. So it's safe to assume that there's plenty of merchandise available.

During my time in the store, I saw multiple people pick up different pieces and ask for prices. When employees responded with "$120" or "$240," most of them quickly put the clothes back down.

Their confusion made sense. There was no money symbol anywhere to be found on the price tags, and some of the signs were peeling off the bags.

"I like Yeezy — the feel of it, the heavy cotton, and the over-sized look," shopper Elijah Richardson, 20, said. "I'd definitely buy it if it was cheaper — he should bring the prices down."

I picked up one gray T-shirt that cost $120. I liked the cut and high neckline, but thought the fabric felt too rough.

The Gap logo was also extremely small — about the size of a dime.

The fabric felt softer, and some of the designs were more interesting, in my opinion.

After digging through one bag, I found a hoodie with prints of white doves across the back, and "Gap" written in a faded-gray font across the chest.

These necklines were only on the $240 dove hoodies. When I pulled one back, I found a Yeezy label — made to look like the Gap logo —and a note that the sweatshirt was made in Cambodia. The same label appeared on the rest of the clothes in the collection.

Customers came and went, but no one stuck around for long.

Still, some dedicated fans have shopped the line. One employee I spoke with said the Yeezy cropped hoodies were flying off shelves — or out of bags, I should say — and previously sold out.

Some people seemed to laughing with the artist, and admiring his unique sales tactic. But for the most part, shoppers — even those who were fans of Ye — seemed astonished by simple clothes that cost hundreds of dollars.

I was right there with them. In the words of one teenager who I saw shopping the line: "It's way too expensive for what it is."
