Nike auctioned two special edition Air Yeezy sneakers. Each of them are one-of-a-kind and were only made available for the sole purpose of the auction.
“One pair features a black leather upper and Jordan VI bottom, the first and only time the shoe will be made available with a Jumpman logo, and the other pair is THE Air Yeezy that Kanye worn on The 50th Annual Grammy Awards.” As cool as these kicks are I cannot see anyone getting tooexcited about wanting to get a sneaker Kanye West wore at an awards show. (Tee-hee…)
However, it’s for a good cause, and they are certainly nice pairs of sneakers that come in equally nice boxes. The auctions ended last night. The Jordan VI-inspired pair sold for $7,400 and the West-worn pair sold for $16,500. DAMN! All proceeds went to the Doernbecher Children’s Hospital that’s located in Portland, Oregon.
