• Theophilus London Tweets Backstage Photo of Air Yeezy 2s
1 CommentHip-Hop artist Theophilus London attended the Watch the Throne concert in New Jersey yesterday and tweeted a backstage photo of Kanye wearing the black/pink Air Yeezy 2 shoes. Kanye has been wearing these new Nike collaboration shoes since the beginning of the tour last month. No word has been set on an Air Yeezy 2 release date, but if you’ve got tickets to any of the Watch the Throne shows, be sure to look closely at ‘Ye’s kicks. If this black/pink colorway is never released, this might be your only shot at seeing them in person.
• Detailed Concert Photos of the Nike Air Yeezy 2
2 CommentsThanks to DJ Proto J from Sole Collector and NikeTalk, we’ve got some detailed images of Kanye wearing the black/pink Nike Air Yeezy 2 during the Watch the Throne concert last weekend. The overall silhouette hasn’t changed too drastically from the original Air Yeezy, but there is definitely a lot more going on with this new version. From the crocodile-like print on the side panels, ridges on the back of the shoe, embellishments on the strap, and material on the toebox, it appears that we can expect more texture on the Air Yeezy 2. So far, Kanye’s worn this shoe at all four Watch the Throne concerts, so don’t be surprised if we see additional images within the next two months.
• Kanye Spotted Wearing the Black/Pink Air Yeezy 2s
6 CommentsKanye West was recently spotted in New York wearing the black/pink Nike Air Yeezy 2 shoes. Kanye debuted this brand new colorway to the public when he and Jay-Z kicked off the Watch the Throne tour in Atlanta last Friday. To date, this is the third Air Yeezy 2 colorway that has been previewed and out of all the photos that we’ve seen so far, this has to be the clearest shot yet. There’s still no word on an Air Yeezy 2 release date or price. The Watch the Throne tour continues tonight in Baltimore and we should expect Kanye to be performing in these shoes.

November 1st, 2011• New Black/Pink Air Yeezy 2 Colorway Confirmed
5 CommentsVirgil Abloh tweeted that Kanye was wearing a new colorway of the Nike Air Yeezy 2 shoes last night in Atlanta. From our original post, it was difficult to determine exactly what that new colorway was. We guessed black/pink, and from new photos that have surfaced from the opening of last night’s Watch the Throne tour, the colorway is in fact a black/pink Air Yeezy 2. This exact colorway from the first Air Yeezy was arguably the most popular colorway in the trifecta. The question that remains is whether this colorway will be made available to the public, or if it will never be released, similar to the black/red Air Yeezys that Kanye wore throughout the entire Glow in the Dark tour in 2008.

4 CommentsKanye West’s assistant art director Virgil Abloh tweeted, “And some new Yeezy’s colorways are out in the #wild,” making a reference to Kanye wearing a new colorway of the Air Yeezy 2 shoes at the Watch the Throne concert in Atlanta tonight. It’s hard to make out what the new colorway is from the concert photos below, but the shoe definitely looks like the Air Yeezy 2. Could it be a black/pink colorway? Stay tuned for additional photos as the show goes on.
