Celebrity Feet: Jay-Z – Jordan Son Of Mars ‘Pop-Art’
March 19th, 2012 by John K. | 56 comments

It seems like Pop-Art is making a comeback in more ways than one. After tearing it up at SXSW, Jay-Z returned home to the Big Apple and was spotted in New York City with wife Beyonce and new-born Blue Ivy on their way to Nobu restaurant. Jay-Z’s style caught the attention of some photographers, as he matched his simple gear with the Jordan Son Of Mars ‘Pop-Art’, a shoe that’s been spotted on several celebrities since it released earlier this month. The Son Of Mars has seen mixed reviews by Sneaker News readers, but they seem to be a-okay in Hova’s book, so check out Jay-Z and his kicks below and let us know if you copped a pair. via mirror








march 3rd i was at atmos to cop. fuk jay-z
ummhhhhuummm
TUURRRIBLE!!
I actually wanted the CLUB PURPLE colorway but if I have to make line the forget it... FUCKEN GUY!!!
BEYONCE WHY? HOW? SMH "You can pay for school but you can't buy class" and apparently you CAN'T BUY GOOD LOOKS
style has an expiration date. the carters like 40 who cares
He's a dad now give him a break!
what does having a child have to do with sneakers stupidass!!!!!!! Lil Wayne's bi-curious ass wears ugg boots but oh wait he has kids never mind sneakerheads we have to back off of lil Wayne we forgot he has children. -_-
lol what a way to make yourself look stupid as hell.
GI've him a break the man obviously lost a bet with someone
It's funny all these people hate on these but love yeezys (look very similar to me)...wear what YOU like people!! Not just because some celebrity wears them or not! These def not for me...
Agree somewhat. Slightly similar to yeezy. Not a fan of yeezy either. The shoes or the rapper...
theze shoes is wack and so is JAY-Z wack azz
no Hov, please come out later and make a statement saying you were payed to wear these. you one of the few artist i have respect for....but this?
disappointed...these J'z are for a tasteless nigga like Wayne...feel disappointed to see Jay rock em.
Nooooooo! Say it isn't so HOV
I don't give a f*** if hov rock em, those js r still weak.
Amen!
unique = swag oversaturation = boring
Well unfortunately these are going to sell-out now that Jay-Z has been spotted wearing them smh
these shit looks like the air yezzy step-brother smh
Is it not hot outside? Only time I should see these is from outlets stores to play ball in only! If they even good enough for that!
Jay whatchu doing son?!
this is living proof the sneaker game is seriously messed up. when 6 rings came out, they ended up on the sale rack. when AJFs came out, they ended up on the sale rack. when JB 6-17-23 came out, they ended up on the sale rack. even spizikes, probably the best executed JB hybrid, are 50-50 when it comes to ending up on a sale rack. heads were selective about what they bought. now, JB creates the ugliest hybrid ever, and hova is rocking them with a goofy smile like he's wearing some undefeated ivs. next thing you know, every sneaker is sold out in 5 minutes online and there's a gang of idiots camped out for a week over some nonsense. WTF.
6 rings and fusions sold out where I live.... I was like "smh" at these kids
I bet Spike sent them to everybody in hopes they wear them and they sell and 40 acres and a mule gets a percentage. Lol. Because nobody for real likes these things. For real
maaaaayb wear da purple & white pair but not theeeeese hov... u might as well put ur blk cement 3s back on lol
he's a MAN CHILD. bruh you wearin KIDDY SHOES!!!!
i LOOVVVEEEE JIGGA !!!!
I'm with stupid ^*
he prob. gets em' for free but they still are basura
I'm not a fan of these, but it is pretty hilarious how the same cats that crucify these joints praise the Air Yeezys! The sneaker culture is full of hypebeast, and I applaud Jigga for making a wack shoe kinda work. Everyone dik riding the Air Yeezys do yourself a favor...looking in the mirror and smack yo self!!!!!
II tokd yall the shoes was hit !!!
I dig the silhouette on the SOMs too - I don't get why they get so much hate. The green laces on the pop arts killed them, but thats an easy swap. Not too impressed with the color combos, but its a dope shoe, super rare too. You can't really hate these and love the Yeezy 1s IMO.
how the hell is this shoe super rare?
Stick to the OGs like normal until something worth wearing drops
Should have kept it looking like a five and gotten rid of that stupid velcro strap. Cant beleive these even hit the market,You cant match this!
Dayum people either love em or hate em. But since they've been getting nothin but hate here I might as well be the first one to say I dig em. I like the purple in white version better but the strap frm the 20's and the upper and pull tab from the 6's do it for me.
I guarantee your just saying that cuz this guy wore them. Lol otherwise you would join us as the 99.99% real heads that think these are a disgrace to the sneaker culture. C'mon son!
Jigga, Nooooooooooooo
and then???
All I can say is these celebrities were given a pair and paid to wear them. Or that they were given a pair, paid to wear them, and decided to because it presented an opportunity to pair up a uniquely different outfit with these kicks. Regardless, they are ugly as shit and a Jordan mutant that no self-respecting kick connoisseur would ever wear.
2nd that
I'm so appalled.
I wonder how many sheep are gonna like these, now that Jay Z is wearing them? BAAA
WTF?
Still think these sneakers are trash it doesn't matter who wears them.
what a bitch
C'mon Jay your better than that
And you're better than spelling YOU'RE wrong...
yeahh booiiiiiiiiiii
i do boy, believe dat
