Today is Ye’s birthday, so in TwelveHub fashion, we are here to rank his top 5 sneakers from Nike, Adidas, and LV.

5. Louis Vuitton Jaspers “Kanye West”

This shoe is definitely odd-looking but it looks like a basis for the Nike Air Yeezy 2, which is a highly coveted model. Kanye declaring himself the LV Don is evident in this shoe, and its exclusivity and designer brand mix make it a grail for many Ye fans. Flight Club

4. Adidas 700 BOOST “Waverunner”

The O.G. 700 colorway finds its way onto this list based off the incredible color-blocking, as well as its introduction as the first chunky Yeezy to hit the market. These will be a shoe with long lasting hype, as the O.G. colorway for the Boost 700s. StockX

3. 750 Boost “Light Brown / OG”

These are my personal grails, and for good reason. The high quality materials and absolutely beautiful design makes this shoe the basis for Yeezy and Adidas. This shoe is a neck-snapping, and will continue to be severely hyped as long as Ye is a relevant designer, and even after that. Don’t expect to find these DS at a reasonable price, but if you got the bread, spend it on these grails. StockX

2. Adidas 350 Boost “Turtle Dove”

The introduction of the 350 in the Adidas line is a huge point in sneaker culture, and the Turtle Dove color way is the epitome of the Adidas Yeezy line, and it finds its spot in 2nd place of the continued hype for a simple shoe that started off Ye’s success with Adidas. StockX

Nike Air Yeezy 2 “Red October”

This is a no question #1 for Ye’s sneaker list. The hype behind this shoe is widespread and has lasted through the years. The all red design makes this shoe impossible to miss, and his work with Nike was short lived, so this shoe is the #1 in my book. StockX
