Nike Air Yeezy
Can you think of another sneaker that had more hype than the Air Yeezy? The answer to that question is no, and if you can think of one please drop a line in the comments section. You know Kanye has to be important to get his own Nike shoe because we all know Nike doesn’t roll like that. Here’s the official Nike images of the highly anticipated Air Yeezy.
By now we know you’ve probably heard the news about the Yeezy’s releasing in Fall instead of Spring. However, we have yet to hear that on our end. As far as we now they will still be available this Spring. Once we get more concrete info it will be posted. All three colorways after the jump…

Nike Air Yeezy Tan

Nike Air Yeezy Zen Grey

Nike Air Yeezy Black

Still no word on retail just yet.
Woah what happened to the Black colorway. I thought they were straight black!
G ROCCCCC< THANK YOUUUU
Fall? If Nike knows what best they will drop these soon. $200 is high but sounds fair due to the hype. I’ll take all 3 if I can get my hands on them. What’s up with the print on the strap?
kanye wests blog said THIS MONTH, nike said THIS MONTH, WHO SAID FALL????????????????????????????????? and why do these pics look sooo much nicer than the detailed pics
No prob TCU
Fall? I heard it was grey release in April black in May and tan in June but yea these pics make them look even better.
I thought the last pr wuz suppose to be a Bred? WTF? I ain’t the type that like to be misled so I’ma go to Oregon to whoop Phil Knight’s azz w/some steel toes on & find Ye & shave off his mullet.
Thank you very much G-Roc 4 official pics!!! Really liking the Tan joints!
@cenvalcali
U late kayne already cut his mullet off. These shoe are not all that the strap on the tan shoe looks like a over size bandaid!!
The Black cw will be a def cop. Don’t know if they was legit or not but, a pair of those Zen Grey’s went on eBay for 947.00, no homo!!!
umm… these all get the no-go. glad they were tooo expensive for me. so on top of not affording, i officially also dont like em. at least not these colors. what happened to the blue/gray or navy/orange?? i would CONSIDER those. but w/e
thnx for the verification G-Roc
damn i thought thoes tan ones were green they jus look wack now but tha black r still dope
oh i get why thers mad ys lol bcuz dey want 2 stop bootleggers nice
im feelin the Yeezys more and more. Im getn kinda excited about the release
man i’m diggin the tan and the black iz mice but the insde should be red or gray or somethin!! but nice..i prob wont cop because the price is too HIGH!!!
GOT OFF THE PHONE WITH NIKE, SHOES ARE STILL SET FOR MARCH AND THEY WILL BE 250. BUT DATE COULD CHANGE
Black & Pinks for sure if I can get my hands on em. I’ll pass on the others.
I’m disappointed in the weakest colorway dropping first. Funny thing is I’ll probably still get them just cause.
trash
still hoping for March but fall could make these easier to buy since there’s already so much hear dropping this month.
I only like the black pair… the tan joints aren’t that bad either
EEEHHHHH……now I’m really on the fence about these…..the grey ones look “just ok,” the tan ones are “just ok” too….the black ones are a no go….

DEM SNEAKERS IS UGLY LOLZ
I WOULD NEVA SPEND OVA 200 FOR THEM
As bad as it hurts to wait, Nike & JB keep putting out fire for me to buy so Im kinda glad they are pushed to fall.. gives me time to save up for these beasts..
DUMB TO RELEASE A NIKE HIGH_TOP TIMBO BOOT IN SPRING. DUMB.
HEHEHE….
damn i wish tha price would b $200
garbage
i can see the jonas brothers wearing these with the tight jeans…lol
I’m not copping Nike and Ye let me down. All the colorway’s are fruity and gay…save my money and buy a pair of Air max ’95 in April
the black ones are fire! from the looks of the soles, i’m guessing that the glow in the dark feature was thrown out…
these straight fire well da tan ones and da black ones but i heard dey was gonna b 200-250 is dat true?
the soles are still glow in the dark
grey ones most def since they are the least gayest color. the black are ruin by that pink inside lining but i think might cop and the tans… hmmmmmm again the ligther pink lining on the inside.
kinda having second thoughts on the yeezys
i wanted the black ones..but the pink kinda ruins it..hopefully there will be betta colorways of the yeezy to come!
mannn i would get da grey or black joints but da price is fuckin crazy for just 1 pair if dey was 150 i would get at em but ill stay on my j’s and sb’s for now
these shoes are wack…yall hyping this shit too much…maybe if they were cut a little bit lower..like a mid…cuz i dont see anybody pulling these off wit shorts…real talk
…DISAPPOINTED on how the colors came out!!! SHOE DESIGN is still dope… but I’m not feeling the contrast of colors..SAD!!!!
After looking at the official pics for hours (lol) I’d have to say I like the Tan and Grey colorway the best. The Black color not so much. I still think the Black pair will look good on the foot with pants of course since everyone will probably wear these kicks with pants. I guess what I’m trying to say is that I think all 3 colors will look good on the feet with pants. What I can’t figure out is why in the HECK would Nike use the crappy Nike Sportswear box for this shoe? I know you can’t wear the box, but I always thought they would come in a very dope box. It would just make the package better and set apart from the everyday releases. Penny 2′s came in a brown Nike Sportswear box, and it just caught me off guard that the Yeezy’s would come in the same box. Kinda like a cop out to me, but that’s just me. Did I mention the retail price? For $200+ I can’t see why they couldn’t hook up a special box. Like my boy MT said, it’s not like they have to spend a lot of money making the shoe since most of the designs on the shoe is recycled. Look for a write up in tomorrow, or should I say today’s news. Much love to all TSGers and thanks for the ongoing support. I hope everyone enjoyed the Say NO To Fakes song.
yo g-roc how come theres no info on here about the pearl foam ones that are supposed to be coming out this month??
^^I agree about the box thing….half the reason I went nuts getting Pusheads was because of that box. Ye shoulda had Murakami do some artwork for the box or something……woulda “kinda” helped sway people to pay $200+ for these…..and they straight ruined the black joints…..if they’d have dropped the black ones from the first leaked pics of the shoe, there woulda been RIOTS for em…..but these shits here?……eh, I can’t mess with any of em except the grey ones……and MAYBE the tan joints.
^^^^G-Roc & TokyoMike, Yal dudes ain’t lyin bout Nike slackin on accommodatin potential grails in an average brown cardboard box. I think the Yeezys shoulda debuted wit the Chi-Town Bears CW (Navy Blue/Orange) Kanye’s hometown or the supposebly Blk/Red or the Tinker inspired Yeezys imo. Not these(up top)though cuz I don’t see myself losin sleep over em. Really though, maybe “MLK Jr.” ain’t campaignin our boys in Oregon (Nike), but rather switchin up to high end – flamboyant shiet like LV & fahgettabout urban trend. Mayne, if I woulda got a 6 figure endorsement from a co. overseas (i.e. Baron Davis/Ni-Ying or Ni-Ling) or if Pimpin Ken or Don “Magic” Juan asked me to be their limo driver or their righthand, better yet, “backhand,” I wouldn’t hesitate for a second “CenVal, slap dat hoe!” ….No problem boss! Just sayin if I see an opportunity to blow up….best believe I fienna jump on it like cuttin in front of a fat chick @ Hometown Buffet.
Back to the lecture @ hand….
I went to my local spot yesterday to peep out the 1/2 Cents & dude brought em out witta crushed box. WTF? Asked him politely if he had another pr. & said “No, these are limited.” So I walked outta there with 2 crispy Ben Franks still in my pocket. Truthfully, the sizin is kinda off on the ‘Cents. I tried to go .5″ down, but then its too freakin tight. I must confess that God prolly intended to give me uneven feet….my second(index)toe is longer than my big toe so therefore I can’t go a .5 sz down or up….LOL/SMH….Yea, I know I mentioned that I’m an anti-fusion/hybrid kicks copper, but its somethin bout these ‘Cents thats givin me second thoughts….Might just return to the spot to cop em w/banged up box or I could wait til Saturday & line up along side the teeny bopper hypebeasts…. In a “Lotus Position.” Peace & prosperity….
I’m wit FlyySkyy on this… The original colorway’s we saw looked better. Plus, since I’m not a hypebeast, I won’t be getter these, that’s good news for all you beasters out there…
DEFF! needed a Different BOX! the hype is killin me with this speacially on how it affected the Price tag!… but the black ones drop from my favs to second mayb even 3rd, as of now Grey.
UPDATE!!!
The Nike Air Yeezy will release in Spring 2009. Three colorways will be available. The first in April 2009 will be the Zen Grey/LT Charcoal color way, followed this will be followed in May by a Black/ Black version, and in June with the final Net/Net color way
I guess I’ll finally jump in here and comment..I’ve seen all the new pics and drops and also the quick ebay auction and honestly…its hard to knock that fact that these are hot…At first I thought the print was cement, when I heard they were Y’s I was like damn thats fresh…people are killing the Y’s but they beast for elephant print…makes no sense..anyway..You are talking about Kanye West..this dude doesnt get enough credit for being as media savy as he is…one of the first to communicate through blogs and boards…A self proclaim internet addict…The orginal color ways were scrapped the minute thousands of fakes hit the net…The release was widen the minute fakes hit the net…The pricing has fallen the minute info hit the net (price will be $199 to $215 hasn’t been finalized yet)…In terms of the box…this is a power move on the part of Nike Sportwear in much the same way JB, Nike SB etc have there own boxes…Since the creation of Nike Sportswear last summer, they are quiety taking over as the giant hype machine in Beaverton..Again Nike is like an umbrella with many little companies underneath…From what I understand the major delay was which brand would release these…As far as the price….Do you realize the average Nike Sportwear Drop (Brown Box) is between $125 to $250??? Nike Half Cents, Nike Foams, Nike Kaws Current..im not even going through the Bespokes.. that will just reall skew the average much higher….People will cop..just like the half cents came and went before they even released…I dont even know the offical release date of the Cents thats how fast they sold out…and the price was anyway from $200 to $300 depending on where you got them…Much like these…very much worth the price…
Man I’m speechless. I’m so disappointed. The black ones were my favorite. They pink is killing me. They look like those girls spizikes.why not release them in the bred colorway. I know people said there’s fakes already in that colorway. But that shouldn’t stop anything at all. The price is steep. We were lead on.
these will be $215.00
if you dnt believe me call nike
Good info cbrown. I didn’t even realize those were “y’s”. That’s a nice touch.
