Although it’s not officially out, the ad campaign for Kanye West’s line of Louis Vuitton sneakers has leaked all over the internet. What’s more striking is the fact Mr. Gay Fish- I mean Mr. West has included his girlfriend Amber Rose in one of the pics. The model/video girl turned-Kanye arm candy appears completely nude- definitely a creative way to sell some sneakers. The sneakers, which look like a fancy pair of Air Force 1’s, will be out in June and range from $800-$1,200 a pair.
A G for a pair of sneakers? I think I’ll stick to my 2 for 5 Old Navy flip flops.
