Kanye West's Signed Nike Air Yeezy 2 Sells for $98,900 USD to Benefit Hurricane Sandy Victims

As it was previously announced, Re/Create and a number of celebrities aimed to help with the devastation caused by Hurricane Sandy by auctioning off a number of personal items. Amongst the celebrities and items put up for auction were Julianne Moore’s special effects breastplate from the forthcoming remake of Carrie, a vintage Miu Miu dress from Les Misérables star Anne Hathaway’s wardrobe, a Marc Jacobs Mini Stam Bag, signed Kate Moss book, a bottle of RC Reserve Syrah from Roman Coppola, and a signed pair of Kanye West‘s Air Yeezy II. It can now be confirmed that the winning bid for the aforementioned sneakers from the always buzzed-about artist fetched a whopping $98,900 USD via eBay. It seems that “watching the throne” isn’t nearly as enjoyable as owning a piece for some individuals.
