We've been watching the throne for a little over a decade now and, finally, its sonic manifestation is upon us. In the time its taken for one of the most epic albums to date to come to fruition, we've seen Hov and 'Ye in some pretty dope footwear – better yet, we've seen them together in some really dope footwear. Clearly, if you're going to be of hip-hop royalty, your kick game's gotta be proper. So, while you listen to Watch The Throne for the very first time, check the technique of two kings in 10 Classic Jay-Z and Kanye Footwear Moments...
