So does that mean that they'll only release once (1 colorway) and be done with the whole shoe? Or will it be like the McFly's and releasethat 1 colorway in that fashion and then later on we'll see more?

If its only three stores hopefully its Chicago has one of them. So frustrating when only NY and LA get releases.

"I'm gonna start releasing some of the pieces online starting in January. The jacket from the AMA's, the Warrior hood that I wore at the Dior showand this one here. I actually designed this one and the jacket from the AMA's less than 3 weeks ago! I'm really happy with them! Sidebar: The LouisSneakers are coming out REEEEETARDED and the Yeezy's drop in march. Sorry for the wait. I swear to you guys all I do is work on design when I get offstage. I want to and will be the real thing. I will not just be a "celebrity designer." $!#% has to be good!!! Another shout out to the Kids from thelines Public School and Sandinista, my personal 2 favorites this month , you got busy! Today is a great day, I'm in Amsterdam at a really dope hoteloverlooking the river. I got some sleep on the plane so I should have my voice back a bit better. Whoever saw the promo I was doing this week could tell I wasbeat and my voice was dead but I still had to get up there and do my job. All the controversy aside, life is great. I've already started conceptualizing atour idea for next summer. I want to do it in the round (perform in the middle of the arena). Ok, gotta bounce, more press to do". - Kanye West(kanyewest.com)

 

[kidlebron23]

cant wait I exited now no Jordans for me

 

[kobehead]

Anyone got a video of him on 106?

 

[bradlasseigne]

i hope nike has a decent price for these otherwise i mite have to pass on these

 

[shadi914]

 

[wallyhopp]

i feel sick. such a basic and simple design that calls for $80-100 tops. i feel sad being affiliated with a website in NT that has this shoe going 4 pages deepalready.

 

[Sinner]

^ Lol... you know you want a pair so you too can be like Kanye... I'm just messin wit cha...

I find it strange, though, that in the other Yeezy threads, almost all the posters didn't like the shoe, while in another thread, everyone loved them...

but seriously, a lot of Kanye fans in here...

 

[da from dmv]

I can't really wait...but I know will be a problem to get them.

UPDATE: apparently, 3 stores is no longer the plan. expect a "limited" release. no word on how limited yet, but will be more than 3 stores.

All this hype for a pair of fugly shoes ... To much hype and the sad part is people know the shoes are wack but they want them because of KANYE ... Damn mustbe nice ... A) you got a CD thats garbage but people are gonna buy cause its KANYE and B) a pair of ugly shoes that will sell because they are KANYE nikes ...Damn HYPE KILLS ... really sad ...
