Nike Air Yeezy (Kanye West Shoes) Release Info Confirmed for Spring of 2009 ***UPDATE- 4/30*** PG 1

[SlamShut]

This whole thing is getting lame real quick.

 

[fab1122]

Anyone else feel Kanye and Nike's relationship is strained over this shoe. The fact he didnt even care to leave his Nike shoe up on his blog for all of anhour makes me feel something is up. Plus he has never really acknowledged them at all. I'm curious to know what his exact thoughts are. That press releasewas kind of cool though. Guess only time will tell.

Agreed.

If the people at NIKE had any sense they'd release them soon (Spring/Summer) when people can wear them right away. There's been so many fakes and other brands have made their own knockoff versions that the repeated delays makes no sense.

So it's still Tier 0/Charity Shoe?

agreed, they've been pushed back further than lebron's hairline..


already pretty much lost interest in them myself.


but the black/white outsole joints are definitely the best.

Hi,
I appreciate you taking the time to email me about your interest in the Air Yeezy, style 366164-002.

As you might know the Air Yeezy, style 366164-002 (grey color) was considered a March release but it's been changed to a April Quickstrike and will be released to our selected Urban Accounts, Niketown New York/Chicago and authorized Nike retailers. The price of this very limited edition shoe is $215. We are not given a release date for selected 'Quickstrike' footwear. To find a local urban account in your area, please visit this store locator function on a sneaker blog - http://www.sneakerfreaker.com/shopguide/?country=USA&city=ALL+CITIES+IN+USA&search.x=69&search.y=18 http://www.sneaker-websites.com/sneaker-store/

Please be advised we haven't heard that this shoe will or will not be released in the Portland area.

Also, 'Quickstrike' means that it can be released at any time, any day of the week the isn't specific time of release in this case.

In the meantime, enjoy the rest of your day and hope you are able to get a pair of Air Yeezy!


Sincerely,

Rui

Haha that was my email. Lol I replied asking about if they're gonna sell in all Niketowns, no reply yet.

 

[blakperl]

Wut up with tha price?? Damn shame.

 

[blue0230]

The grey is the best one.

I'm hoping for some more colorways.

 

[tweezy]

Idk at first I really liked the greys, but the tan have really grown on me. It gives me more time to save my pennies, and I get to see al the chaos with theother releases.

 

[datopcat85]

I was waiting for these to come out but Im disappointed with the colorways nike chose.

 

[miketysonthekiller]

Man, I had high hopes for these.

 

[coco8723]

must get atleast 1 colorway..haha

 

[dakid4996]

Price tag is too much.

 

[sickkickgame23]

Guys, come on. If you had your own signature shoe, would you not want a version that ONLY U possessed? IE the player pe's we drool over week in and weekout? Sheesh give Nike and 'Ye a break. And kill all this complaining about the colorway, I'm worried about the allocation of this release

 

[clarkkent415]

I hope all of you who don't like the shoes keep that same mentality when they come out.

I need a pair of the black joints. Those are too fresh to me.
