Two Yeezy shoes are on our radar this week, but that’s not all.
The first is the all new YZY NSLTD BT ankle boot, which looks like down jackets for your feet. By comparison, the Yeezy Foam Runner doesn’t seem so crazy anymore – that’s probably why Kanye West (or Ye) ultimately decided to release it in a shocking shade of red instead of some other boring neutral shade his ex-wife had. Kim Kardashian would wear.
