nike air yeezy fire red colorway Nike Air Yeezy Fire Red Colorway

Alongside the already confirmed Nike Air Yeezy colorways, we get a peek at a fourth installment in the mega hyped series which was revealed last night at the Nike TPE 6453 Opening. Although there’s no news pertaining to a release date/availability, this patent leather Fire Red version adds another dimension to the already highly scouted aforementioned colorways including a Black/Pink rendition which is scheduled for a May release.

    damn this shit is a let down. In all the previous pictures I felt that the midsole was actually orange. Seeing this as such a flamboyant red really irritates my eyes and I can’t say ill buy it. Maybe when more images surface I might change me mind.

    Trash. These hyped up pieces of shit need to get pissed on.
    You guys fell for it, you really did.
    Kanye’s gunna make billions on a crappy hybrid shoe.

    how much these cost ??

    I love this color, but Ebay is full of Yeezy’s now, so its just not as rare as people think. Hyperdunk Mcfly’s are just a better buy in terms of rarity. Even ato Matsumoto’s are probably better. Up to Kanye though for actually coming out with the shoe.

    first of all i know what the crack is, Im a footwear designer for a major sportswear brand, and these shoes are over rated and quite ugly…fact, they are just a bad mash up of other nike models, this is finally killing the collab’s with celebs who are not designers. No doubt these will be flying off the shelves like crazy, but you have to ask why?Coz it has a nike swoosh on it? take that off the heel, remove Mr west from the picture, thats a bad $100 hightop….

    first this is a hater free zone so if u dont like the shoe be respectful and this is hot but im waiting for the red ones to come out

    ^^^^

    This is the ignorant of the week. So if someone doesnt agree with your POV then they should just not state it. Thanks you Nazi.

    fuck.. my 2 fav colors on a shoe.. and they not dope enough for a kanYEeEEZY production. thee grey/orange joints are most def the best colourway… fuck.. sprinkle some cement… some crackle.. even some elephant print will do.. nything to make these worthy of a kanYEEEEZY drop.. just think replace all the orange on the grey/orange ones with FIYAH RED.. oOoWEEE son

  14. Posted by: real on April 11, 2009 at 12:38 am

    i still like the tan colorway the best … yo kmacc you knew these were gonna drop eventually you shoulda been skipping on them school lunches.

    “Never mind what haters say, ignore’em till they fade away.”
    All of you want these and any other shoe that has some crazy collabo. Just admit it.
    As for originality isn’t hip-hop just all breaks and beats from 70’s and 80’s tracks? True originality is in the innovation and the vision to create something new from something old. Take something and make it better.

  16. Posted by: Paolo on April 10, 2009 at 5:13 pm

    OH GAWD! EVERYONE LOST THEIR MINDS!!! YEEZYS ARE THE WORST SHOES EVER CREATED!!!!!!!!!!!!! I CANT EVEN LEARN TO LIKE THEM, EVEN IF I LOOK AT THEM WITH MY EYES SQUINTED!

    Well I have to say I never was a fan of the yeezy. But ihave to say this colorway is pretty dope

  19. Posted by: Wbot on April 10, 2009 at 4:17 pm

    i have a feeling new colourways will still emerge :D

  20. Posted by: Aaron Stathum on April 10, 2009 at 3:33 pm

    I, like the other dude, am an industrial design student and he is completely correct. There is no innovation or new technology. This shoe just shows that kanye is good at photoshop.

  21. Posted by: Rondolf & Mortimer on April 10, 2009 at 2:51 pm

    Finally !!! now the colorways that yeeze actually wore now Im gonna wait till the white on white patten leathers come out.

    I like this color way better than the other three. Dopeness!

  23. Posted by: Roy on April 10, 2009 at 12:31 pm

    Look at all the hype in these comments.

    Hypebeast, if I were you I would look into expanding or even selling at this point this website is a marketing machine.

    Just hot!!!!!

  30. Posted by: Tommy on April 10, 2009 at 4:03 am

    I don’t like to be negative or hating but it has to be said… the hybrid sneaker craze has to stop… is the same deal with the loud color/pattern hoodie craze a couple of years ago… not only is the air yeezy not original (cut and paste designs from other sneakers) but is damn ugly… this is a model example of a all hype, no substance consumerism… but everybody’s got their own taste and you like what you like but don’t go chase after something because of hype

    good shit

  32. Posted by: invAZN on April 10, 2009 at 2:39 am

    better =]

  33. Posted by: dc on April 10, 2009 at 2:22 am

    honestly, i never liked this shoe. It took no vision to make, it’s just a fusion of a a bunch of different nike shoes, which goes to show that kanye doesn’t know what he is doing as a sneaker designer. I go to school for industrial design and nothing is innovative about this shoe which is what design is all about. To come out with some that not only aesthetically looks good but also has some new tech behind it. He just took elements form a few different shoes and put them together. his LV shoes are another example of how bad he is as a designer imo

  34. Posted by: shoc.01 on April 10, 2009 at 1:55 am

    hot. but after seeing how the red parts of my fire red 3 flakes off.. i might skip these..

  35. Posted by: dznuts on April 10, 2009 at 12:44 am

    Don’t get me wrong the yeezy is a cool shoe, but honestly the Hyperdunk Mcfly’s are better and more rare for the same yeezy price. Imagine a shoe only 250 made verses the yeezy of 4 colorways 9,000 for each colorway going to be made. Yes both are great shoes but when the demand for these shoes die down so will the price due to the large amount in the market. So as far as people saying it is an investment I’m not so sure. Cool shoe though.

    All I have to say is this:

    Check out that picture.. This is clearly the Hyundai Genesis of shoes. All stolen looks.

  43. Posted by: Pap on April 9, 2009 at 10:32 pm

    Whoever said they look fake are some idiots, and haters. Reading is essential. How are they fake when Hypebeast specifically broke down what influenced the creation of the Yeezy’s and the Jordan sole was part of these influences. Ignorance is bliss….. Ya’ll are sick, but these Yeezy’s are sicker. Period.

    i like these but i still think that the grey and orange ones are the best.

  47. Posted by: Ron on April 9, 2009 at 9:12 pm

    I think thats the colorway everybody wants…. which means it’ll probably be retardedly hard to obtain.

    They are also being referred to as the “Concert Edition” Yeezy because Kanye wore this specific colorway during the Glow in the Dark tour, in which we were all exposed to the Yeezy for the first time. I blogged about this colorway on my website too

  51. Posted by: me on April 9, 2009 at 7:19 pm

    what is he talkng about grey is aneutral color. It looks sick with anything. thats why some of the most famous shoes have grey as the base because you can put it with any color and still have it look sick. and who wants another BRED colorway when we see that on EVERY other shoe.

    better then the last couple of pairs but the shoe still looks wack to me…sorry. I still think that it should have come out last summer then it would have been hot shit but now its just like every other shoe with a strap that released this year. over played and the jordan soles don’t really help.. makes them look kinda fake I think. but thats just me

  62. Posted by: Norm on April 9, 2009 at 5:44 pm

    These Joints are hot. But i dont understand why Kanye is putting colors together that pisses people off. like red, grey, black and that glow in the dark sole.
    subtract the grey and we have a master piece.
