NICE KICKS #1 PICK & COMPLEX #1 PICK: Nike Air Yeezy
Nice Kicks Says: Call me a hypebeast, fine, I'll take that. The shoes have been a journey. Ever since 'Ye wore these on the
courtstage at the Grammy's, the blogs were buzzing. These kicks were one of the biggest releases of not just 2009, but of the past few years. Never has there been so many campouts nationwide and a resale market that could pay off the national debt and pull us out of a recession.
Complex Says: After doing the making of feature from our Kanye cover story, we had a bigger appreciation for these. It was the first shoe that people who were dead set against camping out, were camping out for. People who hate just don't have them, and it's no shots at anyone, but The Yeezys showed that sneaker hype is alive and well. And for that, we're not really mad. Expect everything to happen all over again for the black/pinks on 5/2.

The 1/2 Cents & Eggplants are the sickest shoes ever, both are super Comfy. Yeezys are Sick too, but way overpriced!

i don't really like those "Nylon Dunk Vandals" or w.e but i do agree with getting the 1/2 Cent's, Fresh Water Griffeys, Eggplant Foams, and Yeezy's on the list.
