It makes the $600 Lanvin sneaker line (which coincidently looks exactly like this Kanye/LV line) look like a bargain

He's a no-talent megalomaniac who needs a beatin. He wants to be the next Elvis? I'd like to see him gain 50 lbs, his career go to shite, and die on the toilet just like the king.

Kanye is a very talented producer. Do you think he's a singer or someshit?


Anyways,

You can hate his kicks, but you cant hate his moves. He's just chasing the American dream, you have to respect that. Don't hate the player, hate the game.

P.S Light brown and purple is a surprisingly nice combination. I might try to incorporate that combo in my wardrobe.

come on, if LV offered to pay you a marsupialed amount of money to make a shoe which is just a copy of '80's reeboks and nikes, you wouldn't do it? I sure as hell would. Basically these are made for the guy who wants $1,000 sneakers to brag about $1,000 sneakers, but still wants to look "street." It's for people who want the LV image but don't wear dress clothes. I could see rappers snapping these up. I'm sure 16 year old rich kids would love them. If I was a drug dealer, i'd probably wear them. If I actually wanted a shoe to impress people with how up on street wear I am, I'd just wear a pair of common projects, which coincidentally Kanye West professes to love on his blog.

The shoes aren't to my taste, but I can see them being hits with those who also like Lanvin, Raf, and the like.
