Kanye Wears Air Yeezy 2 at Coachella

April 18, 2011 | Category: Air Yeezy | Author: John

Kanye West ended Coachella 2011 wearing Nike Air Yeezy 2 sneakers and a red suit during his Act 3 set. Up to tonight’s performance, there was a lot of speculation that a second collaboration shoe between Kanye West and Nike would release, but no solid evidence had ever been released from Kanye or anybody from his inner circle. Tonight, Virgil Abloh, Kanye’s assistant art director, tweeted, “Start lining up now,” as Kanye was performing in the red suit, referring to the hype that an Air Yeezy 2 release would command. Several days ago, Abloh also posted on his blog a “Y” print that resembled the pattern from the original Air Yeezy shoe, further adding to the speculation of a future release. An Air Yeezy 2 price tag and release date is still unknown, but more answers and clearer shots should be expected in the coming months.

    Billy: Agreed. I’m hoping clearer shots surface soon!

    Voss: Hard to tell from the distance of the shots, but I’ll try to find out. I think a few people on Twitter mentioned Lanvin. I’ll post here after I do some digging!

    Mr. A From Tha T: I agree. I need better pics. As for price, I’m thinking it’s going to retail for the same amount as the first Air Yeezy, $215. But, stores will definitely up the price.
