Complex Exclusive: The Making Of The Air Yeezy

Where are you Yeezys? Oh, here you are.

This morning, we brought you our futuristic new cover story with Kanye West, but that’s just the beginning. Also included in our stellar (if we do say so ourselves) April/May 2009 issue is a special “Making Of The Air Yeezy” feature with Nike Creative Director Mark Smith and Kanye himself.

In the feature, we get the skinny on how the long-awaited sneaker (which hits stores next month) came to be, complete with some never-before-seen blueprints, samples and sketches from the design process. Sneaker fiends, rejoice!
