• Nike Air Yeezy Stress Test

SoleCollector.com member, Euthanasia, has put the Nike Air Yeezy to the test on the basketball court and has provided a review of the performance of the sneaker on the SoleCollector.com forum. You must be a member of the forum to view the thread, but it’s definitely worth the read and provides great insight on the sneaker’s comfort level, stability, durability, fit, and overall value. Here’s a little excerpt:

After getting the Air Yeezys from a friend, I decided that they had the ankle support of the older Nike basketball shoes, extra padded lining, padded ankle supports like the Jordan 5s, and a midsole that carried along through many of Nike’s shoes. Who said that the strap wasn’t useful? It definitely tightens the grip on the hold for the width of the shoes, so there’s a bit more resistance when doing quick motions.

• Give Me My Yeezys

Using Kanye West’s hit single “Heartless” and the infamous auto-tune, Blake Carrington and O-Sound have recorded “Give Me My Yeezys.” The song is a parody that reveals the heartbreak of not being able to obtain a pair of the Nike Air Yeezy. A feeling we have all come to grips with the past few weeks following the May 2nd release of the sneakers. Very creative song, fellas. Kanye should send over a pair immediately for the suffering his sneakers have caused.
