    Ugh people are soo petty, everybody is entitled to their own opinion, but come on, do you really have to type a whole para. on how much you hate em? I think these shoes are sick and I give Kanye props for actually designing his own shoe. HIS OWN SHOE!!! FOR LOUIS V!?!? WHEN YOU GET YOUR OWN SHOE, THEN YOU CAN TALK SHIT!! BUT UNTIL THEN, KEEP THE PETTY COMMENTS TO YOURSELF!!

    This is nothing to do with “hate” its to do with cultural exploitation.The street has always had the vision original in the way that heads choose their own style and picked things they liked now there is a generation that just reads the blogs to get their ideas and people like LV laugh all the way to the bank the shoes are irrelevant its all about making money ang “buying” credability the label does not maketh the man/woman..Kanye is an excellant artist its more about how ridiculous the greed has got exploiting the culture think about the bigger picture in this economy/time

    thank you maxwell… you have a good point. i see a bunch of haters on this site… what are they doin with their lives that even compare to the people they continue to hate on? great, you don’t like the kicks, move on…

    THE HIGHS LOOK WAY BETTER, THE LOWS SUCK . IM NOT IMPRESSED AT ALL .
    IM ACTUALLY MORE ANTICIPATED FOR THE AIR YEEZY’S RELEASE DATE.

  11. Posted by:maxwell on January 28, 2009 at 4:47 pm

    y’all really think Mr. Jacobs would let LV release if they weren’t fresh?

    I like how all the haters are talking “why do you keep posting on kanye”. Fools, you get to see a preview of the post before you can click to comment on it, if you don’t wanna see it, just scroll down to the next item on the list.

    Whether or not you like the kicks, why you gotta hate on the designer? You gotta respect the man for doin his thing… don’t hate just because you ain’t shit.

    i think they flee(FLY). but what makes them better is the haters that dont like em cuz they cant cop em. HAHAHAHAHAHHHAHAHHA

  14. Posted by:SSNYC on January 28, 2009 at 10:38 am

    I like the greys…they are a little skateboardish…but I like them…clean, understanded like quite confidence….I don’t need to be wearing perforated day-glo bedazzled snakeskin translucent nikes. LESS is MORE. Every shoe out there can be compared with something else…they are different without looking like clown shoes.

    Is Kayne paying your utility bills over there at hypebeast??
    He’s getting more coverage than Barack..

    everyone at hypebeast is on Kanye’s scrotum..

    Enough please.. These joints ain’t even that fresh.

  22. Posted by:Kanye is the biggest tool in the shed on January 27, 2009 at 11:05 pm

    Alright Kanye, I gotta be honest. If I never saw or heard anything from you again, I would consider myself blessed. Yeah the college dropout was decent but now you need to drop off the face of the earth. By the way, these shoes suck dick, and thats putting it lightly. I would expect them to tho considering Kanye dresses like a ghetto male prostitute. PLLLEEEAAASSSEEEE RETIRE and never speak again

    Looks like D C skate shoe for 8 year olds

  24. Posted by:Jason on January 27, 2009 at 10:43 pm

    GIMME A PRICE! definitely gotta stacc up for these

  25. Posted by:josh on January 27, 2009 at 9:45 pm

    get rid of the back flap and the solid colorways and they are sick. GET RID OF THE BACK FLAP IT IS HELLA UGLY.
    put the white and pink colorway on the lows and that would look pretty chill. (especially without the backflap)

  26. Posted by:Don on January 27, 2009 at 9:36 pm

    The air yeezy’s or what ever they were called was way better then this.

  27. Posted by:dude on January 27, 2009 at 9:28 pm

    Im not trying to hat on these shoes but theyre definitely not worth 800

  28. Posted by:flair2300 on January 27, 2009 at 9:20 pm

    IF YOU CAN COP MUFUCKA WHY ASK THE PRICE!!!!!!
    Dope
    gotta get these.
    NOW

  29. Posted by:hades252 on January 27, 2009 at 9:13 pm

    did jeff staple design them?

  30. Posted by:antdig on January 27, 2009 at 8:21 pm

    I like the shoe. I am impressed fuckers. Ya’ll always lookin for sumthin to hat on. I don’t see any other low top sneakers with a backflap to protect your jeans from touching the ground. The shoe is simple and isn’t extra eccentric. I can see myself wearin this as a luxury sneaker so I will cop easy. They better than most the high fashion sneakers out.

  31. Posted by:A Savvy on January 27, 2009 at 7:59 pm

    It feels like these have been out forever, cuz they’re talked about so much. I feel so over it.

  32. Posted by:Consequences on January 27, 2009 at 7:28 pm

    Hahaha, this shoe is absolutely ridiculous. Knowing Louis V this shoe could easily run in the 500-1000 range. Add Kanye’s name on them and it’s over. Even if I had hundreds and hundreds to drop on sneakers, these would be my last options. Not to mention these are probably gonna be so exclusive, good luck trying one on let alone buying one.

  35. Posted by:NO on January 27, 2009 at 6:40 pm

    They’ll be $800 US or in that neighborhood… No where near as low as $375 though, this is LV people!

  36. Posted by:adriana Salcedo on January 27, 2009 at 5:50 pm

  37. Posted by:kbst on January 27, 2009 at 5:46 pm

  42. Posted by:j.pay on January 27, 2009 at 4:44 pm

    prolly hit outlets

  43. Posted by:allen on January 27, 2009 at 4:44 pm

    These are terrible. I really can’t believe these made it past the conceptual phase of design. Let alone make it to print under a label like Louis Vuitton. I guess everyone is feeling the effects of this economy!

    LV shoes cost an arm and a leg, I’m sure these will be no different and real Kanye fans that have to have these are going to break the bank to cop them.

    I will agree that the high tops look slightly better, but what the hell is that wing on the back of the shoe.. I asked that in my last post when these were originally put on HB. They should have done a better job of incorporating that .. thing. Also they have UBER thick sole which Im sure makes this shoe stiff as all hell.

    Not impressed in the least. Rather spend 400-500 on another pair of Tiffs.

  44. Posted by:CKSINGH on January 27, 2009 at 4:41 pm

    y do these keep being posted? im gettin bored…this should be called “kanye beast” not heypebeast.

    please stop

    there awful

  45. Posted by:philly joy on January 27, 2009 at 4:39 pm

    Japan and COllete only. $666

  46. Posted by:jerk on January 27, 2009 at 4:25 pm

    they’re a nice design it looks good and it’s clean. i like the experimental heel thing he’s got going on… as for the guy talking about the hi top with a pink bottom, the pictures are taken in a room with what looks like a blacklight, i would bet they’re red and light grey.

  47. Posted by:boost on January 27, 2009 at 4:01 pm

    i need a price then i’ll decide

  48. Posted by:treatsboy on January 27, 2009 at 3:58 pm

    not feeling the black on black

  49. Posted by:young davey on January 27, 2009 at 3:57 pm

    Like, what’s the point, not a bad design by any means, but I’m sure their gonna cost $375 minimum, and nobody in the hood or under 18 gonna cop em when you can get 3 to 4 pairs of A1’s or Jordans for that. It’s like design for designs’ sake.

  50. Posted by:bitchface on January 27, 2009 at 3:51 pm

    clean, I like em.

  51. Posted by:pierrot on January 27, 2009 at 3:40 pm

    Kanye should stick to music. And even then he should stay away from the vocoder…

  52. Posted by:SelfConscious on January 27, 2009 at 3:35 pm

    How much are they going to cost?

  53. Posted by:Amachi on January 27, 2009 at 3:33 pm

    I just wanna Kno how much they plan on selling these joints for…

  54. Posted by:Nitty on January 27, 2009 at 3:19 pm

    the black ones are a pretty nice sneaker to go out. but I’d still take the Air Yeezy’s over any of these Louie kicks.

    the back design is sick, other than that its like whatever. cmon kanye give us something better..no respect lost for your fashion sense, just not feeling these.

  56. Posted by:FUCK MD on January 27, 2009 at 3:12 pm

    hi tops look better

  57. Posted by:conrad on January 27, 2009 at 3:07 pm

    i like how the top come together, with the 2 tone black.. not a fan of the bottom finish

  58. Posted by:chicagochicano on January 27, 2009 at 2:41 pm
