Sneakers - Nike Air Yeezy avaiable now!


Nike’s man of mistery this year has definitely been the Kanye West’s "Nike Air Yeezy". The world first caught a glimpse in February when Kanye wore the shoes on stage during a Grammy performance and it wasn’t until slipped some info in an interview later that month that Kanye let it slip that the shoe was not just an exclusive for him, but "the Nike Air Yeezy wasn’t out yet.”

Since then we have seen numerous photos of Kanye wearing the Air Yeezy on and off stage in multiple color ups and Mr. West has even helped give us some sneak peeks from his blog at Kanye Universecity.

What also is interesting, that I found, is that the Air Yeezy has been a concept that has been in the works for quite a while. Posted on Kanye’s manager, Don C’s blog, we found pics of Kanye West sitting next to Nike’s CEO Mark Parker working on sketches on Nike’s private jet. The blog post is dated for December 11, 2006 which was the day after the Nike 1 Night Only event.

Sadly, I noticed that another shoe that Kanye has worn, the Ato Matsumoto boots are one of the latest victims to the fake trade. With so many advance photos and the fact the Yeezy is made primarily of components that bootleg factories are already making, Ato CowHide Boot, Bape Roadsta and Air Jordan II...
