The collaboration sneakers between Kanye West and Louis Vuitton will be released at worldwide Louis Vuitton retail stores TODAY, WEDNESDAY, July 1st. Unlike the Nike Air Yeezy release, all 3 styles, the Dons, Jasper’s, and Mr. Hudson, will be released at the same time. The least expensive price is $840 for the Mr. Hudson boat-style sneaker and the most expensive is $1,140 for the Jasper’s with the pink sole. Surely, it is pricey, but what did you honestly expect from a French luxury brand that sells handkerchiefs for several hundred dollars?

Although Kanye West did not perform at Sunday’s BET Awards 2009, he did not disappoint on the red carpet. Here he is with girlfriend Amber Rose, before the show, wearing a pair of wheat-colored 6-inch Timberland boots. It’s a very different sneaker selection than what we all may be accustomed to, but doesn’t Kanye always surprise the masses with his style?

The crew over at La MJC was fortunate enough to receive the entire collection of the collaboration sneaker between Kanye West and Louis Vuitton weeks before its release. They teamed up with photographer Amaury Choay to create a lifestyle photoshoot with the sneakers and are the first individuals other than Kanye, of course, to actually be seen wearing the sneakers. The creative direction, presentation, and just the entire photoshoot, really, does a wonderful job revealing the great aesthetic of the sneaker; props to La MJC and Amaury.

We showed you unofficial product shots that Highsnobiety and Daniela Muller-Brunke did for the Kanye West x Louis Vuitton collaboration sneakers, and now, here is the video from the photoshoot. I especially like how the video reveals attributes of the sneaker that had never been exposed before in other product shots, like the special insole that reads, “Louis Vuitton and Kanye West.” It’s a great viral video that truly reveals the intricacy and attention to detail of the sneaker.

Michael, you truly revolutionized music and the entire essence of Pop culture like no other to date. You have been a big inspiration for many artists today, Kanye West included. Your presence will be greatly missed. Rest in peace, Michael Jackson.

When it comes to music videos and presentation, Kanye West is always on point. Whether it be the storyline, effects, or his outfit in the video, he never seizes to amaze viewers. The music video for Beyonce’s current single “Ego” features Kanye in a suit that complements the entire black/white theme of the video, while also wearing a pair of the white Mr. Hudson, 1 of 2 low-top sneakers he designed with Louis Vuitton. He’s also wearing the black flat-top style sunglasses by RETROSUPERFUTURE, which has been his prime choice for sunglasses several months now. It’s a nice, clean monotonic outfit that could be worn at work or even in the club. Here are screen shots from the video:
