A nice new low top sneaker comes as part of the Louis Vuitton Fall/Winter 2009 Collection. The sneaker comes with a leather/suede upper and a strap over the laces. We like that they kept the branding to a minimum. Look out for a release soon.

The Kanye West x Louis Vuitton Sneaker Collection will be officially released in LV stores globally tomorrow, July 1st. Last week we showed you our photoshoot, as well as a video that we shot of part of the collection. Today you get a complete look at the collection – all three models in all colorways.

As mentioned before by us, we are actually more than satisfied with the outcome of the collection, both in terms of design and in terms of quality. When we had the shoes in the office we had a lot of people come through to check them out and opinions vary widely, with most people actually liking the outcome. The tastes also go in completely opposite directions, with some people loving the flashy pink sole and others prefering the more subtle tonal styles in the collection. We belong to the second group. Quality is really on point, with all sneakers featuring butter soft leather uppers and some nice details. The Hudson boat shoe is our personal favorite, next to the tonal high top sneakers. We find the large heel flap on the low tops a little strange to be honest, but that is just our personal opinion. All in all a very solid collection of sneakers. Make sure to pass through a close by LV store to see them live, it’s well worth it.

We can safely say that until now you have not seen the footwear in so much detail, so make sure to take a look at the complete Kanye West x Louis Vuitton Sneaker Collection, consisting of the Don, Jasper and the Hudson, after the jump.

Yesterday we presented to you our Louis Vuitton x Kanye West Footwear Photoshoot. We had worked with a lot of colors, adding some psychadelic flavors to the collection. To follow up on the photo spread, we show you today a viral video that we produced. The video has a much cleaner appearance, matching the design of the footwear. The release of the sneakers is just around the corner. Louis Vuitton stores around the globe are already taking reservations. Once again, we hope that you enjoy it!

By now, most of you have seen the line-up of sneakers created by Kanye West for Louis Vuitton. Opinions vary on the outcome of the collection. We’ve always compared the line to what Louis Vuitton has done in the past with sneakers, and think the Kanye West collection beats those efforts by leaps and bounds. Just like in the regular sneaker game, some people like it more colorful, others like it more subtle, and this line-up offers something for both tastes. Personally, we prefer the tonal high tops. We also had the chance to field test them and can tell you that quality and fabrication are very much on point, as to be expected from Louis Vuitton.

Having worked recently with Nike on the Air Yeezy, the LV collection is the second major sneaker project by Kanye West. Take a step back and think about what is happening here – we see collaborations all the time with boutiques, brands, artists and other creative fields. How many times can the colors and the materials on the same shoe silhouette be changed and still look new and different from the hundreds of releases we see every year? Kanye West got to design his very own silhouettes in both cases, probably the most impressive part about these projects.

With the Kanye West x Louis Vuitton sneakers releasing worldwide in the coming weeks, we wanted to do something out of the ordinary with the footwear Louis Vuitton gladly lent us for this special shoot. We teamed up with German photographer Daniela Muller-Brunke to shine some new light onto the Kanye West x Louis Vuitton collection. To give you some background on the shoot, we used the iconic LV symbols and projected them in different colors onto the background of the sneaker, with the outcome being a psychedelic mix of fading colors. Hopefully you like it.

The Kanye West sneakers for Louis Vuitton will be hitting stores in June and today we can for the first time get a good overview of the line-up and especially get a closer look at the numerous high top sneakers that are part of the collaboration. The high tops come in both colorful variations and more subtle black and white tones, making the line overall very well balanced. Via BKRW.

Another Blazer Mid comes from the Nike Tier 0 range. This time the mid top sneaker comes in premium leather in a curry brown tone. The Swoosh is once again perforated, just like we have seen on quite a few recent releases in the Tier 0 Collection. The sneaker will be available from Limited Edition Vault as of November 2nd.

It seems like the Gucci theme never gets old in the sneaker business. Here comes another release from Nike with the Big Nike Low making use of the iconic green/red color combination. At least they mix it up a little in terms of materials, using premium exotic leathers on the upper and giving the Nike logo on the heel a bit of a crackled look. If it was not for the over-used color theme, we would actually see this as a good release. The sneaker is now available at LTD.

The release of the Kanye West x Louis Vuitton footwear collection is just around the corner. Today we came across another style that we had previously not seen. The boat shoe style also comes in the grey/pink colorway, in which we had previously only seen the high top. More news on the collection to follow very soon! Image via Easttouch.

After presenting you yesterday another Louis Vuitton sneaker designed by Kanye West, we give you today a first look at the high top model that will be coming as part of the collaborative collection. It seems to come with a pretty clean design, two wide velcro straps and an interesting mix of premium materials. Hopefully we get soon a better look at this one!

Update: Here some new images of the shoe via Revolve.

Thanks to an article that was recently published in the DSM paper, we get a look behind the scenes of the designing process of the Kanye West for Louis Vuitton Footwear collection. Kanye worked with Louis Vuitton designer Fabrizio Vitti on the collection. You get a nice look at the making of the sneakers, including drawings by Kanye. Images via KNOTORYUS.
