Ya know I was gonna let it go & not say anything, but….. this shoe looks so f’ing cheap. Like my ’96 rollerblades. I don’t blame Kanye for moving on to Louis one bit. & $215??!!!! This must be the end of days, fo real!

These kicks look way better than the Louis Vuttion ones. I’d actually wear these.

do these need gasoline so i could walk in them?

man I’ll bet Kanye had a part in Designing those himself they go along with his unique style, I could see myself wanting to wear those.

these look really nice i would totally cop these..

These shoes are reminiscient of Kanye’s early beats: Bits and pieces spliced together to make something both new and old.

The look kinda blah. But some interesting colorways would liven it up.

I saw Kanye performing at Lollapalooza in Chicago last August and he was rockin these all white Yeezys with a patent white strap….it was like staring at the face of God.

At $250.00 these better come with a pair of laces.

Marcus Troy got his pair today, must be important.

these kicks will go a long way in separating the long-time, trueschool sneakerheads from the kids who got into the kicks game because dunks look cool with their skinny jeans. They got an early 90′s FORCE series look to them, plus a midfoot strap like football turfs or cross-trainers. Definitely keepin that retro-Nike functional look.

I’m a fan. I’ll rock em

i have to say that these, in my opinion, are pretty much dookie. Don’t let the fact that you like Kanye’s overall style sway your decision that he has designed a good looking pair of sneakers. I’d rather ID a pair of hyperdunks or something, honestly.

utter filth, once again yeezy gives us another shoe collage, perf. leather, cement (elephant), regular leather, two different colors on the sole, four different shades of grey, a platform sole with an airmax bubble, laces that dont match and finally safety orange is the cherry on top of this sundae of excess and poor design

The buzz has died down on these significantly, not only because they’ve taken so long to drop, but because Kanye has damn near stopped promoting them in favor of his Louis shoe. It’s almost like these are “beneath” him now…

They look a bit cheap now… I’m sure the ones Kanye had were made in nicer materials.

I’ll take the LV’s instead.

its..was a bad move to take so dam long to dropp the shoes…cuz..alot of ppl were so hyped for it…dat it took so dam long dat they lost interest for these shoes…and..im guessing its either its going to be press expensive or will have a retail price..dats low…and will rise up in a couple of days…but its rili going to be weird with alot of shoe heads wearing these shoes out doors..cuz u mostly dont see these kind of shoes outdoors alot..

i’M NOT FEELING THESE AS MUCH AS THE PRE PRODUCTION JOINTS. The print on the strap is overkill.

I still think the black colorway is the best. The $200+ price range is ridiculous. I’m guess they will be around $100. There is no way Nike is going to price these above Jordans or Lebrons.
