Looks like the coveted shoes have made it into space before we did. As part of Crep Protect‘s new frontiers program, Kanye’s darlings made the successful journey on October 13. Its mission: to fly to Jupiter to test the effectiveness of its protection spray… also to drop off a pair to some ETs. Though it only made it to the Earth’s atmosphere, which is farther than most of us will ever go, it passed the Crep Protect’s classic water test. Check out the video above and journey statistics below. In the meantime, make sure to check out our giveaway for a pair of Yeezy BOOST 750 here.
