The buzz around the sneaker world for the past few months has been all about Mr. West's Air Yeezy, but on May 15, Jay-Z's going to try and takeover the footwear game by releasing the first sneaker under his Rocawear label.
Point-and-shoot pics of this RT1 "Evolution" sneaker leaked online last week, but now we have detailed shots of Big Brother's sneakers. They're not as flashy as the Yeezy's, but they're also much cheaper, clocking in at $84 a pair. How do you think Hov's sneaker stacks up against 'Ye's? Check more pics of the Evolution, and then vote on who's sneaker you're feeling more after the jump.
$84.99, http://www.rocawearevolutionsneakers.com/

First off, if you are under the age of 35, you will never understand the S. Carter sneakers. So let's get that out of the way. But, come on. Give both of these joints a chance because ya'll dam well every single pair of Jordan's weren't that hot when they first came out neither. People just copped them b/c they were Jordan's. STOP PLAYIN......

Jay-Z's are way fresher, because you could actually fuckin' wear them somewhere. The Yeezys are ridiculously expensive and easy to tear up. Not a good combo. Plus these just look more comfortable to wear. Can't have swagger if you can't even walk.

maaaan, that is so true! u gotta be comfortable in shoes, not in pain! Its also true that your swagg will be messed up if u cannot walk in the shoes. feet all sore and tired and u walking around looking disgusted. Im not in for all of that! i want to be comfortable yet the shoes look nice on me.

The shoe are two different types of shoes. One is more of a sneaker while the other has a more casual feel. They're both nice shoes if you ask me.
