Kanye West x Air Jordan Rumor
Posted by Matt Halfhill | Aug 6, 2009
Word has spread across the web ever since MediaTakeOut posted a rumor that Kanye West was in talks with Jordan Brand to design a shoe. According to their report, “Kanye is negotiating to design a limited edition pair of Nike Air Jordan’s. The insider claims that negotiations are still early, but that both sides are excited about working out a deal.” We have since come into contact with a couple of very close sources who claim that they have not heard of such a thing. I guess with anything, only time will tell. |

Romeo you got a point but Kanye already proved what he got in terms of style and design with the yeezy and the Lv’s…. and sorry to say it man but not its for JB…. Theres some things you just dont do… no matter what…
Aug 6, 2009 at 12:57 pm
Northsideboss got issues fo reals let the dude make some damn shoes it would be a dream if us regular people can make our own air jordan but nope we can’t but ye grew up like us n now he has da chance 2 do it just let him don’t hate on dude
Aug 6, 2009 at 12:55 pm
Well, at the very least it will be better that that fusion BS that JB puts out. Well… I hope
Aug 6, 2009 at 12:50 pm
if this actually happens, it will just be another overpriced fail for kanye and air jordan.

kanye making shoes=to big and bulky,with loud pink and tan colors,with straps on top of them=not a good look for a jordan shoe,if JB lets him make a shoe for them,then i hope there super limited and to expensive for everyday people,cause i dont want to see everybody wearing boots they call shoes with a hundred straps all over it with some type of pink color all over it,real jordan heads dont like there shoes bigger than there clothes,sorry kanye but jordan heads dont wear skin tight jeans,with skin tight shirts with mohawks=that style is slowly getting played out,and then watch all of his friends and coworkers wear the ugly shoe like its a masterpiece but its really hot gabadge,if he is working with JB then i hope the shoe is super limited,cause JB cant afford to make any anymore mistakes,just when i thought JB was getting there act together with the recent good releases coming up and then they pull this kanye gabadge stuff,let kanye stay at nike and louie,jordan heads are different type of crowd from emo,kanye likes wearing jordans like we do,but that doesnt mean he will know how to make a jordan shoe,all he wants to do is make big bulky space type boot looking shoes with loud colors,and straps on it,that equals not a good look for jordan brand,kanye is not going to keep it simple like jordan 1-23,a shoe doesnt have to be loud like how he makes his shoes,message to kanye,dont make the shoe to big,no loud colors,and youll be ok like how the original jordans are,but you being the egotistacle maniake you are,then most like you are going to ruin a good oppertunity to make a one in a lifetime shoe for JB,most likely you will design the jordan shoe with the ideas you had when you were in 8th grade when you dreamed of making a shoe for JB=to big and bulky,boot look a likes,loud colors,with starps,only made for emos,do us jordan heads a favor,do not do it,or just make a few pair for your family and friends,cause sometimes somethings just dont mix right,you know about legacy,s,please dont tarnish JB,s with your hidious shoe designs that you and your frinds think are tylish,kanye,go make 500 ugly pair of shoes for guccie,or versace,or prada or somethin,we[jordan heads]dont need you,there shoe line doesnt need your takiness,jordan himself has style,thats why we love his og,s,and a occasionally some of his retro,s,jordan doesnt need your ugly,loud,carebare looking style[which you and your friends are the only people who likes that look] to be added to his shoe line,oh,by the way,what happened jay,we thought you were going to be wearing nothing but black as of lately,we seen you wearing that hidious pink louie shoe also,keep it gangsta and funky like when your wearing them retros jordans and dark colors.

I hope yeezy does it. He also nedds to bring a new team to JB and have them make some heat! JB has fell off as far originality goes. They are good with Remakes. Besides the spizikes there really hasnt been heat from jb. Just my thoughts.
Tune into nite tales next friday at midnight on WGN

if you go on Kanye’s blog he already shoots down these rumors so oh well
Aug 6, 2009 at 11:15 am
Romeo is surprisingly correct
Aug 6, 2009 at 11:05 am
No thanks. Just so I understand this, he’s now selling and making shoes, but not music lately.
His shoes are not that great, overhyped and overpriced. Never thought for once that his shoes were worth all that $$$. If a Jordan Shoe is made and created by him, I won’t be interested. It might be overptriced as much as his Yeezys are. Pass… and I haven’t even seen his shoes yet…!
Aug 6, 2009 at 11:05 am
who cares? we probably cant afford to cop a pair anyway
Aug 6, 2009 at 11:02 am
It mite be better than da shiit jb coming out with lately
Aug 6, 2009 at 10:57 am
with the prices of jordan line and the prices of what kanye west makes its going to be around 200 - 300 dollars for a pair
Aug 6, 2009 at 10:56 am
Weak
Aug 6, 2009 at 10:50 am
Hope hes better making them shoes than making music his music make no f… Ing sence its whack yeeeeaah whack
Aug 6, 2009 at 10:29 am
Kill that noise, its all hype, I’ll believe it when I see it, who cares anyway.
Aug 6, 2009 at 10:18 am
also kix files got some Asia heat that little have..your going to pay but worth it….and by the way I started balling in the mud with my Yeezy’s when i seen Perez rock em’…so if hating on haters is hating so be it……Im a WU Tang fan anyways

We were sitting on the news until we could confirm from our sources whether it was true or not. The last thing we want to do is spread fuel to false hype.
