The Prices For Kanye West’s Louis Vuitton Sneakers Are Released

Damnnnnn, the prices are a lot worse than I expected, but you will still see people rocking their rent payment on their feet this summer. The point of rocking Louis Vuitton is to rock stuff most people wouldn’t dream of buying, so to each his own. You can settle for his Nike sneakers.

Come on Mr. west, people are dying for a pair of sneakers for a decent price and dis is what you throw at us. Drop the price to an Affordable one and then see your sneaker rise to fame.
And p.s. some of the colors are weak

March 12th, 2009 at 2:52 pm
I’m wondering how well these shoes will sale. They’re definitely too expensive for the AVERAGE Kanye West FAN. If they were a couple hundred then a lot of ppl would cop. But a grand??? Lol, ouch. I guess we about to find out if RICH PPL like Kanye or not…
March 12th, 2009 at 3:02 pm
well the affordable ones will probably be the air yeezy’s BUT
still 1,000 for a pair of sneakers? I can see these knocks offs flodding canal street real soon LMAO!!!!
March 12th, 2009 at 3:09 pm
Alot of broke niggas on here I see… these are louie sneaks, if yall want some cheap shit go get a pair of them lame ass starburys or get a better job.
March 12th, 2009 at 3:15 pm
For a nigga who use to talk about how hard it was for him coming up, is so making it harder for those kanye fan’s that will do anything for a pair. Thats a true nigga for u, forget how hard it was to struggle.
March 12th, 2009 at 3:25 pm
Fuck that…..
March 12th, 2009 at 3:27 pm
#1…when is ANYTHING w/ Louis Vuitton “AFFORDABLE”. LOL A Louie RAG is like $200+. Like RTNY said “The point of rocking Louis Vuitton is to rock stuff most people wouldn’t dream of buying” The average consumer cant afford LV unless U dropping a rent payment. And thats not who LV makes merchandise for.
#2…smH at everybody gettin @ Kanye. This is still a LV product so I doubt Kanye West sets the prices
March 12th, 2009 at 3:47 pm
LMAOOOO…..If You Can Cop Em, Cop Em….If Not, Dont Complain……Thats Why They Make Forces and Jordans…..Stick to What You Know…..
Ill Get Em Just To Make My Closet Look Nice….LMAO
March 12th, 2009 at 4:04 pm
IDIOT
March 12th, 2009 at 4:16 pm
NOBODY IN HERE IS BROKE YOU RETARDED PIGLETS,THE SHOES LOOK LIKE ASS AND THE ASKING PRICE JUST MAKES IT EVEN MORE RIDICULOUS.
IF I’M GOING TO PAY $1000+ FOR A PAIR OF SNEAKERS THEN THEY BETTER LOOK EXTREMELY WELL MADE.THESE SHOES LOOK LIKE SOMETHING AN ASPIRING BROOKLYN FASHION DESIGNER WOULD CREATE FOR A SCHOOL PROJECT.
March 12th, 2009 at 4:25 pm
coppin them starbury’s..hell i rather get those al harington joints..y would u possible wanna drop a G on kicks.. cosign #23..i’m stickin to what i kno..timez is hard
March 12th, 2009 at 4:32 pm
Kanye Is Tight And the shoes are tight but i aint paying 800 or 900 for sum damn shoes
March 12th, 2009 at 5:04 pm
# 3… kanye is not your dude. Stop playing yourself.
March 12th, 2009 at 5:16 pm
these shoes are under LOUIS VUITTON… if u didnt realize everything that these people sell is overpriced. So why would they make an exception on these shoes?
you know you wouldnt even cop if they were 10$ lol stop frontin
March 12th, 2009 at 5:21 pm
Jay Gets Busy:
Im from ireland and i would fly to new york to walk down canal street again..Thats my shit
March 12th, 2009 at 5:33 pm
Its not about sticking to what you know in this case. Its about knowing the worth of ur money,and some LV kicks for 1K aint it! Why drop a G for pair of Ye LV kicks when
you can cop the original newest season’s Gucci, LV, or Prada kicks for $400? Same brand, same “stunt”
factor and an extra $600 in my pocket. Your basically paying an extra $600 just for Ye’s name?! Cmon now!
Lol. I mean, I love ye and all, but the prices on sneakers for that particular brand is absurd unless they come
equipped with some alligator lining or some ish like that. Its 1 thing to drop a G on some Bvlgari kicks, but LV kicks…naaaw…
March 12th, 2009 at 6:11 pm
its high fashion, some people will pay 1000 for em. its not about making shoes affordable for people. its about status. if kanye wanted to do that, he wouldve done a deal with target a long time ago
March 12th, 2009 at 6:33 pm
the all red ones look clean, but lol @ 800-1k for some damn shoes lol ill go get some forces customized for cheaper lol what is LV and kanye smokin lol only wayne and guys like swizz beats will rock these lol the weird hip hop niggaz lol no regular nigga in the hood will rock these for that price thats a promise lol kanye you gonna start losin fans tryina be too high maintenence not a good look for someone who said he struggled in chi town… and lol at niggaz sayin they would rather cop the starbury’s or the al harrington joints smh i think not ill never cop those cheip ass k-mart shoes that if you hoop in them that day yo shoe gon be havin a full length convo wit you lol i aint goin that cheap lol…
March 12th, 2009 at 6:54 pm
#11…….LMAO…..completely cosign
March 12th, 2009 at 7:07 pm
Ur Buggin, Imma stay fresh with my mauris for 350, even bruno maglis aka Oj simpsons with the levis 300 , tight white tee and a pelle pelle… a whole outfit for less than that homosexuals attire.
March 12th, 2009 at 7:10 pm
o yea, I no he be succin himself behind close doors
March 12th, 2009 at 7:35 pm
at Dwade4Mvp– Don’t blame Kanye. We all know that the artist have little to do with the price of the finished product. Just as Skateboard P help to create the Evidence “millinonaire lenses”, but LV prices them!
March 12th, 2009 at 7:46 pm
…ummm no
March 12th, 2009 at 7:59 pm
the top right shoe is ill…but no way would I even pay over $300 for sneakers. I’m not in that financial position….all the shoes are sick though…Ye is a good designer…..they look like nothing else in the sneaker game
Some of these crazy ass designers make chuck look-a-likes and be selling them for 300 bengis smh
March 12th, 2009 at 9:11 pm
You’re right Wase
I almost forgot about the Air Yeezy’s and now it makes complete since.
These kind of prices are normal when speaking of high fashion. He’s giving normal ppl the Nike kicks. Everybody looking at these prices with the screw face but thats only cuz we don’t be checkin on Louis V and r not used to Louis V prices.
And btw… R the Jasper’s named after that dude Ibn Jasper who Lupe shouted out in Paris, Tokyo???
March 12th, 2009 at 10:08 pm
Damn yo why is everyone hating one of the reasons why its so expensive cuz its LV and they put the price not him so dont have that money shut up no one forcing you to buy them damn but i think the designs are nice and yo wait till warm days come niggas will be in lines on canal street for them Lmao
but yeah price fucken high niggs kind of broke this days u know its Jigga, 50, Diddy, money right there but for regular new york dudes nah chi chill ye
March 12th, 2009 at 10:09 pm
Ultra wack. A 1000 for these weak ass shoes. This brotha done lost his mind. Kanye I’m almost done with you.
March 12th, 2009 at 10:37 pm
Ummm you can buy a pair of Louis Vuitton shoes for well under 1,000 dollars, so I don’t know what half of you are talking about
But anyways,
Cosign #31, a true shopper like myself
March 12th, 2009 at 11:09 pm
Those Mr.Hudson’s is right.Those red don’s is alright too.If a nigga had the money I would order some.
March 13th, 2009 at 12:00 am
Yeah I like the colours and concept, and the shoes are pretty fresh, but the price is just ridiculous, even for louis kicks. 400-500 would be a more reasonable price for lv since their stuff is overprced either way. In the meanwhile, you can grab these Kanye Bapesta Kicks for $95.00 and they are pretty dope in my opinion. 1

March 14th, 2009 at 5:16 pm
I SPENT 4 HUNDRED ON SOME PRADAS SO IT REALLY DOESN’T MAKE A DIFFERENCE WITH THESE PRICES… I MIGHT COP THE ALL BLACK JOINTS

AFTER READING A FEW OF THESE I TOOK A TRIP TO TE LV WEBSITE TO C 4 MYSELF. THE HIGHEST PRICE ON LV SNEAKERS IS 980!!! SO YEA IN ALL ACUTALITY…..KANYE IS TRIPPIN WIT THESE DAMN PRICES. LV HAS BEEN AROUND FOR A WHILE O THERE PRICE CAN BE EXPENSIVE AS THEY WANT….KANYE ON THE OTER HAND IS JUST HITTIN THE SHOE GAME AND WIT PRICES LIKE THIS WONT BE IN DA GAME 4 MUCH LONGER……SO 4 YALL WHO SAYIN THIS AINT BAD…THINK AGAIN CUZ ITS WORSE THAN BAD!!!!!
March 16th, 2009 at 1:35 am
DID YA 4GET LOUIS VUITTON AINT FOR BROKE NIKKKAS??? SO QUIT CHA BITCHIN!!!!
I WAS EXPECTIN $740 MAXXX FOR THAT PRESCHOOL DESIGN. BUT PRICE MARKUPS IS WAT HAPPENS WEN OUTSIDE DESIGNERS GET INVOLVED. DEY GOTTA GET PAID TOO. LIKE DEM NEW SPROUSE KICKS DESIGNED MY MARC JACOBS AND INSPIRED BY SPROUSE. DEY GO FOR $980 BUT DEY FIRE!!
March 16th, 2009 at 10:07 am

March 16th, 2009 at 5:48 pm
tha only ones i’ll rocc is the black highs and those red lows. fucc those other dirt made kickz. but louie trippin on dem pirces.
March 31st, 2009 at 8:17 am
You guys are idoits. If kanye was worried about selling shoes he would put out a 10$ sneaker like Marbury. The point of buying LV is that not to many ppl can afford them so they are rare. The louis stores are only getting 1 pair for each size. If louis sold 100$ sneakers it would loose their allure.
April 17th, 2009 at 7:07 pm
the price is so everyone cant afford them and u wont c everyone walking around with your kicks like jordans
April 17th, 2009 at 7:08 pm
co sign 52
April 17th, 2009 at 8:07 pm

WAY 2 GO MR .WEST…KEEP SHOWIN U DONT CARE. AND U SAID BUSH DONT CARE BOUT BLACK PPL. SHEEEEEIT
May 12th, 2009 at 2:26 pm
too expensive for me… but u figure that if 100 ppl buyin j’s for 100 is the same as 10 ppl buyin these shits for 1000. so they will still make money. wether ur black white or yellow these kicks is overpriced
May 13th, 2009 at 5:31 pm
HE TRIPPIN…900$………WHAT PART OF HIP HOP IS THAT?…….AND THATS WHY MICHEAL JORDAN IS THE GREATEST….KANYE???? YOU GOT SOME CRAZY PEOPLE OUT HERE MAN….FOR THAT PRICE..NIGGA WILL SPIT ON YOUR SHOES
May 14th, 2009 at 12:31 pm
You all are all tripping if you think this price is Kanye’s doing. Yes the prices are jacked up but not because Kanye put a price tag on them but because LV is capitalizing off the fact that Kanye is a celebrity and hoping people will buy them. One BLACK man cannot control what is essentially a WHITE company and what they do with their prices. Keep it real, Black folks. You hating the wrong person.
May 27th, 2009 at 12:31 am
i love these sneakers very much? does anyone where can i order them? crazy item at crazy price? i don’t think so http://www.stylesell.cn/louis-vuitton-jaspers-white-sneaker-p-1861.html
May 28th, 2009 at 8:00 pm
for kanye west LV sneakers simply go to http://www.nelwouisvuitton.com and you can find in affordable prices
August 9th, 2009 at 9:55 pm
First of all these shoes wont be as rare as evry1 thinks they gonna be cuz they gonna be bought by all the kanye west suckoffs and like some of the people on here jus becuz but the thing is the shoes are mad fuckin tacky nd if u buy them jus cuz you prolly a tacky ass nigga tryna show off jus becuz people will be able to recognize these shoes more often than another pair of better lookin LV shoes and u want attention….but the thing is ppl who have a sense of style care about how they look not jus the name……like the LV aviators socoa damier(the frames wit the checkered lenses) are 530+tax and most ppl thought i was crazy wen i bought them but the thing was dem shits was fiiiiire on top of bein LV not like deez shits jus ridin on the name
August 9th, 2009 at 10:02 pm
and ppl talkin bout how its not rly that much for LV sneakers the thing is they are SNEAKERS not dress shoes most of the LV sneakers arent that high so whoever sayin that u kno u dnt rly kno wtf ur tlkin about
