Monday, April 6th, 2009

Nike Sportswear and Grammy award winning recording artist Kanye West present the highly anticipated Nike Air Yeezy sneaker for Spring 2009. The shoe’s name is derived from Kanye’s nickname Yeezy, and reflects his unique style.

This graphic treatment was developed by West and Smith to pay tribute not only to the name of the shoe and it’s co-creator, but also to the various moments in history that spurred West’s initial inspiration for the Nike Air Yeezy.
