Kanye West: All About The Kicks
Jul. 1 2009, Published 3:39 p.m. ET
The UK is clamoring to walk a day in Kanye West's shoes - literally!
The style-conscious Jesus Walks singer has stepped up his fashion game a notch (from Nike to Louis Vuitton) with his LV sneaker collaboration, which hit retail shelves in the UK this past Monday.
Going for around $900, the line of high-stylin' kicks are in such demand that a sales associate from UK department store Harrods told us that prior to the launch there was over a two-month waitlist for the high-end Kanye foot-fashions.

Judging from the English exuberance over Kanye's shoes, we're betting the US launch of the luxury hip-hop foot-fabulousness will cause a shopping frenzy unseen since the original Cabbage Patch Kids went on sale!
Don't forget, Kanye's Nike Air Yeezy's sold out in no time!
In terms of style: the fab footwear is very Kanye, very urban, and very expensive!
