The
38-year-old’s Yeezy Boost 350 sneakers are now selling for upwards of
$10,000 dollars on eBay after the athletic shoes, which originally
retailed for $200 a pair, sold out in the US just 15 minutes after going
on sale. Multiple resellers are asking for $10,000 for one pair of
the Yeezy Boost 350 sneakers, which were designed by Kanye in
collaboration with sportswear brand Adidas, although users have yet to
bid on the pricey athletic shoes.
Kim
and her sisters Kendall and Kylie Jenner have all been photographed
wearing the black and grey sneakers during workout sessions and trips to
the airport in the
weeks before their official release date last
Saturday, no doubt helping to ensure the limited edition sneakers were
all the more desirable to fashion fans.
Recording
artists Chris Brown and Tyga have also been spotted rocking the
sneakers designed by their fellow musician. Kanye made his debut as a
designer during New York Fashion Week in February, showing his first
collection, a collaboration with Adidas Originals. However, many of
fashion industry elite were unimpressed by his work. Guess he’s having
the last laugh.
