Celebrity Feet: Kanye West   Nike Air Flight 89

Rappers and celebs like to boast about how they “never wear the same outfit twice”. That’s not the case for fashion taste-maker Kanye West, who clearly knows what he likes, and wears what he likes. He was spotted yet again with the Air Flight ’89s that he wore during the high-profile Game 3 between the Miami Heat and New York Knicks, and does so again during a recent outing in London with Kim Kardashian. If you look back on Kanye’s Celebrity Feet sightings, you’ll probably recognize a pattern – Air Jordan VI, Timberlands, Yeezy 2s, and now the True Blue ’89′s. More on Kanye’s Air Flight ’89s after the jump, so take a look and let us know where the Flight ’89 ranks among your all-time favorites! Photos: zimbio

Celebrity Feet: Jason Sudeikis   Nike SB Dunk Low Hemp

Actress Olivia Wilde graced the these pages just last week in the celebrity column, showing up in an Air Jordan selection we suspected was aided by her significant other, SNL member and bonafide sneakerhead Jason Sudeikis. Wilde is here again, but this time around her sneakers are rather tame, with Sudeikis being the focus in his choice from out of the Nike SB vault in the form of Cascade pair of ‘Hemp’ Nike SB Dunk Lows – part of the original SB Dunk ’4/20′ release that appeared in 2004. Hit the jump for some more shots of Sudeikis strolling around in these Nike SB classics and let us know what else you think he has in the stash in the comments below. Photos: JJ

NBA Feet: Ray Allen   Air Jordan VIII

This postseason has been quite a showcase for sick kicks thus far. Gilbert Arenas wore the Air Jordan IV ‘Lightning’, Nick Young whipped out the Metallic Red Foamposites, and Kawhi Leonard of the Spurs rotated some white/black/grey Air Jordans during the First Round. It was only a matter of time that Ray Allen would shut down the competition with a PE of his own, and did so during Game 2 of Boston’s series against the Philadelphia Sixers with the Air Jordan VIII ‘Home’ PE; although the Celtics lost the game, Ray led the Celtics with 17 points off the bench. Is this the best NBA Feet sighting of the Playoffs thus far? Check out Ray and his kicks below and let us know what you think. Photos: espn

NBA Feet: Weekend Recap   5/11   5/13

Just a small handful of games went down over the weekend, but what the NBA lacked in number, it overcompensated with heated competition and some new sneaks! The Los Angeles Clippers finally put away the tough Memphis Grizzlies as Chris Paul and his CP3.V led the Clippers to victory. Teammate Nick Young wore the best kicks though, wearing the Air Foamposite One ‘Metallic Red’ to match the Away uni. On the other side, Rudy Gay of the Memphis Grizzles brought back the Air Max Tempo in White/Navy. The other LA squad advanced to the second round as well, led by Kobe Bryant who wore the ‘Lakers’ colorway of the Zoom Kobe VII ‘Dart Frog’. The East was already on the Semi-Finals round of play, as LeBron wore the LeBron 9 ‘MVP’ and teammate Dwyane Wade chipped in with the Fly Wade 2 EV. Paul George, who has been Kobe VII-friendly this season, broke out the Nike Zoom Kobe VII Elite ‘Away’. The final game of the weekend was between Philly and Boston, led by Rajon Rondo’s Zoom Huarache 2K4 iD. More of the NBA below, so take a look and stay tuned for more!  Photos: espn

NBA Feet: LeBron James   Nike LeBron 9 MVP

On Saturday, LeBron James was officially announced as the 2011-12 NBA Season MVP, earning an unprecedented third honor in this era and joining quite the impressive unit of fellow multi-MVP winners like Magic Johnson, Michael Jordan, and Wilt Chamberlain. What separates LeBron from that honored group is the LeBron is the only one to not win an NBA Title, but he’s definitely on his way as he led the Miami Heat to a Game 1 win against the Indiana Pacers while wearing the Nike LeBron 9 ‘MVP’ after being presented the award in front of the Home crowd. Of course, Sneaker News was first to give you a look at the LeBron 9 ‘MVP’, which boasts a mix of Heat-specific colorways with a sick ‘MVP’ medallion on the heel; these have been confirmed for a limited release next month so take a look at LeBron wearing the LeBron 9 ‘MVP’ during the earlier portion of the game and stay tuned to Sneaker News for more updates on this special edition release.

Celebrity Feet: Swizz Beatz & Allen Iverson   Reebok Question

The Reebok campaign continues and it certainly got a lot stronger with the support of Allen Iverson, Reebok’s longest-tenured basketball athlete endorsee in history. As you know, Iverson has a life-time contract with Reebok, and clearly he’s aware of the Reebok Back movement as he made a cameo appearance in Swizz Beatz’ latest music video ‘Street Knock’ (available for viewing just below). Both ‘The Answer’ and Swizz rocked the Reebok Question, with Swizz wearing them around his neck while spitting his tunes while Iverson wore ‘em while displaying his legendary handles. Swizz also wore the Questions during a recent taping of BET’s 106 & Park. More on this sick Celebrity Feet sighting below, so take a look and let us know how excited you are about the Questions hitting stores once again!

Celebrity Feet: Ronnie Of Jersey Shore   Nike Air Yeezy

We’ve seen Ronnie of MTV’s The Jersey Shore show off his sneaker selection before, but for the most part his footwork up to this point has remained within the lines of Jordan Brand. Not anymore, as he recently switched to a regimen of Gym Tan Yeezy, wearing arguably the most coveted pair in terms of secondary-market value in the form of the black/pinks at the opening of LA nightspot AV. Stay with us after the jump to get a better look at Ronnie in the Nike Air Yeezy and let us know in the comments if you respect his sneaker game a bit more now that we’re seeing branch out beyond the typical Air Jordan offerings with such a sough after pair.
