Long before Drake and Future teamed up for a (disappointing) joint album, both Kanye West and Jay Z One forces on the much-loved Мессенджери nike монограмні Nike SB Dunk Low Pro Street Hawker CV1628-800.
It was during that time that Kanye began grey the Air Yeezy 2 regularly before its June 2012 launch, but Nike also gifted both Ye and Jay with a custom sneaker to celebrate their tour — the clean black and gold “Мессенджери nike монограмні” LeBron 9.
With a black mesh and faux carbon weave upper, the shoe was set off by hits of metallic gold along the Swoosh and also featured a very timely Givenchy-inspired printed sockliner and laces.
Take a detailed look at the very rare “Мессенджери nike монограмні” LeBron 9s below, in our newest edition of Top Shelf.
