  1. Thoughts?

  2. They looked nice in black but looking at them like this I’m not digging em at all. I can see em in a tonal colorway only because the sneaker is already a lot so having a lot of colors takes away and makes em look disgusting.

    I’m feeling them … going to have to see some more colorways. I would rock that one though.

  26. Comment by nightwing2303 April 18th, 2008 at 6:34 pm

    So are these kicks built to help your rap game? Do they have optimum performance materials used specifically for those days when you need to bust a flow? They are nice sneakers but c’mon man, a sig shoe for a rapper?!?!?

  27. Comment by eriiclikewhoa April 18th, 2008 at 6:37 pm

    “…the shoes are his own signature shoe from Nike called the Nike Air Yeezy. The shoe takes influence from the Air Assault, Air Jordan 2 outsole, Air Jordan 3 midsole and Air Force V.”

  29. Comment by Xkrispy_eli April 18th, 2008 at 7:27 pm

    would anybody by this ?

  30. nasty. when is this fusion-infused trend going to stop. we need original concepts people.

  31. Im personally not into athletic boots. These are going to be overrated just like Kanye. I do like this color more then the black ones though.

  32. Comment by nikehead April 18th, 2008 at 8:41 pm

    they gimme the feeling of a shoe for amare stoudamire for some reaason…they’re ok…would have to see diff. colors though

  33. Best Nike Shoe Ever! Yea No Arguements

  34. Comment by de la SOLE April 18th, 2008 at 9:41 pm

    These are piff… but just not in this color… the all black ones he had on at the grammys was hot! I’ll cop…. but they better not be more than $150

  35. Any word on how much these will retail for? Let the hype begin!

  36. You can def see some 3’s n 2’s in there.. the assault ass well.

    Hypebeast gunna love these lol

  37. Comment by c brown April 18th, 2008 at 10:37 pm

    these joints look like a pair of Spizike’s and a pair of Ato’s and some purple haze had a late nght stroke session…LOL… I’m gonna keep it real, I like the idea…when the ill red patent leather joints drop or the all silver joints drop everyone will be on it….the true test of how fresh these will be is if the are a GR, Lifestyle, Quickstrike, or Hyperstrike….depending on how limited they are, that will determine if cats go crazy…But so far I like…just dont like the colors…

  38. What up folks!

    On the real, I’m really feeling the name…the Air Yeezy. Now that’s dope :)

  39. Comment by alien real April 18th, 2008 at 11:43 pm

  42. these shoes is so wet. but the colorway is hella korny.

  43. Comment by Flashlight April 19th, 2008 at 1:06 am

    suprise!!! suprise!!!
    the bottom looks like the AJ III’s

  44. odd…
    yet slightly satisfying…
    haha

  45. Comment by joeslow April 19th, 2008 at 1:56 am

    Man the beast are gonna be all over these. First off they are designed by Ye’ himself, second they obviously have Jordan inspirations in them, and third they look like a mix up of the Marty Mcflys’ and some type of acg boot. These are just a mix-mash of designs and colors. So you know what that means… Aye where Steve Nash when you need him? Oh I forgot the playoffs are about to start.

  46. Comment by joeslow April 19th, 2008 at 2:16 am

    BTW(by the way for computer iliterate) when the hell did Ye’ become a storm trooper.

  63. Comment by T Hamp 23 April 19th, 2008 at 6:32 pm

    Just went to his concert in Seattle for the Glow In the Dark Tour and he was rockin these… they looked real nice and they glow in the dark!

  64. Loving these shoes, but I’m sure they will be very hard to get when they release as well as very expensive. I predict the suggested retail price will start at least $200 if not more.

  65. Coppable.
    …Not Too Orginial Though.

  66. Comment by DA One April 19th, 2008 at 10:03 pm

  69. Comment by sole4sole April 20th, 2008 at 1:32 am

    for the right price ill cop and i def want to see the other colors. i hope these are not a tier zero release. hopefully they will release as a quickstrike but not tier zero. keep us updated g-roc.

  71. Comment by airfreak April 20th, 2008 at 2:45 am

    so ATO! Not creative …. art dumb!

  72. These are fresh as f**k….bottom line. Ye did a better job mashing up Jordan-esque design elements than JB’s doing with them UGLY ASS Fusions…..JB should hire Kanye.

  73. Comment by baybay April 20th, 2008 at 4:02 am

    be ready to get your camp on boys and girls

  74. these r amazing. and they glo in the dark damn kanye has quite a shoe cant wait till they release this summer

  75. Comment by g-man April 20th, 2008 at 2:28 pm

    near dead stock means it had only been worn a few times and like barely noticable, basically in almost brand new condition

  76. I look forward to seeing these in person. By the way, Happy 4-twompson errbody!!! :)

  77. Comment by zahirjooma April 21st, 2008 at 3:38 am

    if the tongue wasn’t so big, i think i’d like them more. but definitely a nice shoe.

    groc, hit me up!

  78. Comment by zahirjooma April 21st, 2008 at 3:39 am

    lace look rubber btw… and kanye, learn how to lace your shoes!

  79. Comment by zahirjooma April 21st, 2008 at 3:39 am

    now that i think of it, i wanna lace my shoes sloppy like kanye.

  80. ^^The laces look like the thin waxy joints that come in Supra Skytops…..and f**k the dumb sh*t, that fat a$$ tongue is one of the best parts of that shoe IMO….

  81. If they were not so damn high, I would like them even better. These look higer than some AF1 highs. But, I’ll wait to judge until I can see some more pics, maybe in person.

  82. come on dog its kanye….da realest rapper alive…gotta cop em just cuz they yeezy’s

  83. Comment by monique r. April 21st, 2008 at 4:48 pm

    The big tongue is a great look…Do they glow in the dark or something?

  84. ^Yes, they glow in the dark. Dope concept for the glow in the dark tour.

  85. sure just throw together some garbage from other shoes and kanyes name. yea its hot! :rolls eyes:

  86. so far this is the best colorway
    when i first saw these, i didn’t like
    but they tend to grow on me the more and more i look at them

  87. They have the Bape Roadstas front and the Air jordan 3 Back

  88. THE LOOK KINDA UGLY BUT MAYB ITS JUS CUZ THE COLOR BUT GOOD JOB KANYE IM HAPPY FOR U HOMI..PEACE LUV
