The shoe that took less than 2 hours to sell out at various retailers across the country took 2 years to make. As a sneaker head knowing the process behind some of your favorite shoes makes owning them even cooler so it should be of interest to quite a few of you as to how the Air Yeezy came to be. This indepth article has quite a few gems in it like the following:

Another amazing evolution was the incorporation of the glow soles that made the shoe a slam dunk. Early prototypes actually used a battery0-powered led blue sole, while the final product’s green sole was the result of extensive experimentation and honing.

Pretty cool huh? Read More at: Sole Collector.

    Haha, I wan’t expecting that one. But as far as this shoe goes I think it’s decent. I wouldn’t spend more then 120 on a pair, everything seems overhyped these days.

    I’m really happy for you Kanye, Imma let you finish but the air yeezy is one of the ugliest and gayest sneakers of all time, OF ALL TIME!!!

  • lukela

    Haha nice guys :P

    Kanye is still tight, and taylor swift is fucking garbage.

    Yeezys are decent. Nothing special. I’d rather buy Nike Auto Flight High’s (Black/Infared)
