Kanye West Air 180’s
Posted by Matt Halfhill | Jul 31, 2006| My mouth dropped when I saw these in Vegas at the Sole Collector event. The only time I had seen these before were with Kanye’s feet in them.
These are some ultra rare Kanye West Nike Air 180’s made for exclusively for the hip hop artist himself. These are very unique with Kanye’s bear logo replacing the Nike Air logo on the insole and the Air 180 logo on the tongue. Kevin from Hype Beast let me know about these. They are also available for sale on eBay. Currently the auction is at $1,925.00 with another 3 days to go. Don’t be suprised to see these hit $3k or $4k. EDIT: Kanye has another shoe with Nike - the Nike Air Yeezy. |

Come on, I would expect some pink out of Kanye, but freaking animal skin type? Whut the heck? I sure hope they don’t come out with these in a million colorways like af and dunks. Killed a good shoe. How would you even imagine? Whutever, he’s Kanye and he’s got more $$ than me, just not good taste in shoes.

Those sneakers right there are a definite must. I would definetly wear them when I’m thowing that “ISH ON”! When you wear sneaks and stuff that different, you make a statement. Why not make the statement and call it a day. Them 180’s are definetly statement ready. Look at how many people are commenting right now !!!!!!!!!

Aug 5, 2006 at 8:50 pm
tacky and ugly ass shoe
Aug 5, 2006 at 9:29 pm
ugly, but certain shoes and styles are for different individuals. And can’t everbody pull something like this off.He’s RICH it doesn’t matter what he wears he can retire just on touring for 1 year and walk away from the business and still be better off than you and me.PLUS Nike made those shoes for him for free, he will probably wear them once and there a wrap.
Aug 6, 2006 at 3:23 pm
uglyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.-

Dec 7, 2006 at 1:44 pm
These shoes are mad UNIQUE, you gotta admit, Kanye is a bit flamboyant, but he’s on-point with his personality and style. he’s being true to himself and for the right price, “allyall” would cop those shoes,(especially you Down-low sneakerheads that got some wack joints in your closet and wont pull them out untill they make sense…) on the other hand, Kanye, lets get politically correct…whats next? a BUSH DON’T CARE ABOUT BLACKS SNEAKER….
