Kanye West’s Footwear to Cost an Arm and a Leg
Mar 12, 2009 at 6:30pm
Want to walk a mile in Kanye West‘s shoes? It’ll cost you. Big time.
The 808s & Heartbreak rapper is collaborating with Louis Vuitton on a new line of sneakers, and as Nice Kicks reports, they won’t come cheap.
The sneaker line—which includes Don’s, Jasper’s, and Mr. Hudson models—will sell for $840. For starters. A pair of Jasper’s will set the consumer back a cool—or not so cool, depending on one’s perspective—$1,140.
But hey, it’ll all be worth it. To Kanye, at least.
Check out the video of West describing how much the new line means to him below.
Tell us what you think in the comments section: Would you pay $1,140 for a pair of sneakers?
reminds me of pharrell/bbc’s ice cream collab with reebok. i would expect these to fall into obscurity like that, but these carry a pricetag that i think only other fellow rappers could consider. then again, every other rapper hates kanye west, so these may indeed collect dust
who cares about kanye? He needs to stop thinking that he has any chance at becoming a fashion mogul, because he has no style whatsoever. he is such an arrogant pompus fool.
