Jay-Z, one of the major headlining acts of the SXSW music festival, took a few moments from rapping his tunes to talk about his sneakers – the Nike Air Yeezy 2. Undoubtedly the most talked-about and anticipated sneaker at the moment, the Air Yeezy 2 received even more ‘cred’ when Jay-Z himself couldn’t resist giving the shoes some love to the crowd. Another Nike sneaker that could’ve been massively popular (if it released) was the Nike LeBron 9 PE designed after the ‘Watch The Throne’ Tour, which featured a luxurious interior graphic inspired by Givenchy Creative Director Riccardo Tisci and a massive gold jewel piece by Gabriel Urist. If your cash flow is right, you can make the super-rare Nike LeBron 9 ‘Watch The Throne’ by copping this available pair from got_kickz on eBay.
