• Ibn Jasper and Quintin Hats Collaboration
5 CommentsDuring Ibn Jasper’s birthday celebration this past weekend, he revealed his collaboration 5-panel fitted cap with Quintin, appropriately named after himself, “Ibn Jasper”. The Ibn Jasper appears to be constructed of a black suede and features a front that perfectly matches the lower strap of the black Kanye West x Louis Vuitton Jasper’s shoes. Not much else is known about the collaboration between Ibn Jasper and Quintin, but expect great quality and nothing less than perfection from a man like Ibn, who also happens to be Kanye’s barber and style consultant.
• Mr. Hudson Shows off the LV Mr. Hudson’s
6 CommentsArguably the most underrated Kanye West and Louis Vuitton collaboration shoe, the Mr. Hudson’s definitely establish a completely different aesthetic from the Jasper’s and Don’s. It has the silhouette of a boat shoe and loafer, while its construction and attention to detail fully represents the luxury appeal that is Louis Vuitton. Now, if you’re familiar with Mr. Hudson’s sense of fashion, then you’d understand that it was only appropriate for Kanye to name this particular shoe after his G.O.O.D. Music artist. Here’s a video of Mr. Hudson at RSVP Gallery in Chicago, showing off the Mr. Hudson’s and singing an acoustic version of his song “Supernova”.

• Turn Back Thursday: Kanye Wearing UNDFTD
1 CommentKanye West is one of few artists who can attend a Louis Vuitton fashion show wearing a $10,000 designer suit and go perform the very next night wearing a simple t-shirt with jeans. His fashion sense, similar to his music, is extremely versatile and diverse. Kanye’s knowledge of fashion spans all walks of life and sub-cultures, and definitely shows with every music video, magazine spread, and candid shot. Here is a photo of Kanye (with Virgil Abloh, Pharrell, and Jermaine Dupri) from 2007, just following the release of his Graduation album, wearing the Louis Vuitton Millionaire sunglasses designed by Pharrell and a t-shirt from the Los Angeles-based streetwear clothing brand UNDFTD.
