The Shoes Kanye Designed Are Actually For Sale (UPDATED)

UPDATE: Those runway shoes are being sold for a whopping $5,883. However, Colette is selling a different Giuseppi Zanotti x Kanye West pair for a (sort of) more reasonable $938.

Kanye West‘s first fashion show was, admittedly, a bust. People hated the dresses and the fur backpack and pretty much everything else, but the most well-received item was a pair of shoes the rapper designed with Giuseppe Zanotti.

The ornate (beading! pearls! knit ropes!) heels have popped up in at least one fashion editorial, and Zanotti decided to produce a run of them for sale. As per Colette‘s Twitter feed, they’re available at our favorite Parisian store, though they don’t appear to be on the website (yet).

Between these, the shoes he designed for Dion Lee, and his Air Yeezys, maybe Kanye should consider becoming a full-time cobbler. Of course, we can’t wait to see what he has up his sleeve for his Paris Fashion Week show. STAY TUNED. Also, DONDA FOREVER.
