The Air Yeezy Countdown Begins....April 4th
Big news for those of you who’ve been stressing out about landing a pair of the Yeezy’s when they come out on April 4th—you might actually be able to get them. At Kanye’s request (he’s really nice), in an attempt to give more people the opportunity to rock his space-shoes, more stores than expected will be shelving the sneakers.
In NYC, in addition to the 21 Mercer store, The House Of Hoops in Harlem, and both the 34th street locations of Foot Locker and Footaction will now be getting the Yeezy. **Also, we just got confirmation that the sneakers will retail for $215. To see hi-res shots of the Yeezy’s, as well as some never-before-seen sketches and prototypes, read our exclusive “Making Of The Air Yeezy” feature.
