these are the "Mr Hudsons" (named after the GOOD Music artist and 808 collaborator) by Kanye West for Louis Vuitton. first seen back in
January*, they made their second public appearance when Mr West wore it to the recently concluded Givenchy F/W 2009 show

of all the designs - he did three basic styles in various permutations for men - these are the only ones that quite appeal to me. i prefer the low cut style and the slight preppy boat shoe vibe of this particular pair. i quite like the tassels too. though i don't see myself wearing it with acid washed jeans like he does, i can see it working better with chinos or even grey trousers.

i wish he'd also include this little piston seen on this women's model:

its the "Graduation" bear head by Takashi Murakami used his previous album:

Photobucket  cute huh?


here's the rest of the men's collecton including their (tentative) prices:

though these are not quite my style (bar one), they don't seem too bad either to be honest. i did expect them look somewhat like those YSL and Pierre Hardy high tops Kanye West is very fond of wearing. so no surprises there. but i still have to see these in real life to pass my final judgment.
