AIR YEEZY'S

The new Nike Air Yeezy Sneaker by Kanye West has produced a thunderous clamor throughout the hip hop world--making it the first sneaker put out by a rapper that someone gave any mind.

Check out this cool commercial directed by, an avid Air Yeezy fan, Samtubia Edwards.

The least expensive price I have witnessed a pair of these babies go for is $650--for a size thirteen. Other pairs have sold for as much as a grand.

The public response to the Air Yeezy is mad--you gotta love it though. West's 32nd birthday cake was created in the shape of the sneaker.



According to word of mouth--to date, there are only three colors that have been released at limited quantities (which justifies their exuberant prices). But--there have been some Milli Vanilliness going on. Below are three photos of Air Yeezys that are NOT authentic.
