Notable as the shoe brand's first non-athlete full collaboration, Kanye West’s and Nike’s project has released two editions as of 2013: the "Air Yeezy" (in 2009) and the "Air Yeezy II" (in 2012). Amid wide anticipation, the shoe was released with 5000 of each color way on June 9, 2012. In 2014 however, a new colorway, "The Red October's" had a surprise release on February 9, 2014. The third colorway of the Air Yeezy II shoes released exclusively on Nike's website, and sold out within seconds. The sneakers have been seen on the feet on select athletes and entertainers and come with an exclusivity feeling that is difficult to duplicate. The original “NIKE” box is in good condition, with folds, creases and rips in the corners and along the seams of the box but has the correct “NIKE.COM” sticker on it. Comes in the “NIKE SPORTSWEAR” bag with the crest embroidered. On the ends of the drawstrings are the weighted gold-colored pieces and on the middle of the drawstrings are the scaled leather circles with the roman numeral “II” on one side. The sneakers show slight signs of use on the bottom outside areas. The sneakers have all the correct markings. A few examples are the markings on the velcro, the inside of the strap reading, “KANYE_WEST@NIKE©MMXI”, the roman numeral “II” behind the scaled circle on the laces, etc. If you have any questions about specific identifiers, please do not hesitate to ask. Kanye West signed the outside bottom area of the right-footed sneaker in silver marker and in our opinion, rates a 5-6 overall. Size “12”. These sneakers are properly tagged, were presented to us as authentic and in our opinion shows light use. Accompanied by a full JSA LOA for the West autograph.
