The adidas Yeezy Boost 350 was stalked by nearly the entire planet this past weekend, but not everyone was able to get a pair. One of the lucky parties to get their hands on Kanye's Greatest Shoe Ever was the crew over at Jenkem, a skateboard site. And they did what you'd expect skaters to do to their Yeezys —​ no, not use them as "chilling shoes" —​ they skated in them.

The site took the sneakers around NYC over the weekend and thoroughly blew them out. According to Jenkem, "We made this clip to see what it felt like to shred a thousand dollars via kickflips. To make people remember that these are just shoes. And to make Hypebeasts who are putting them in gold cases feel just a little bit more stupid. So do all of us a favor and send this on to your friend that cares just a little too much about his 'dope sneaker collection.'"
