I'm pretty sure he meant that his shoe brought the same hype people had for retros.

The incident that happened with Zappos CEO Tony Hsieh sums it up perfectly.

You think less fortunate people would care about, what kind of sneakers they have on their feet? They might have never had something on their feet before. It would be better than destroying the sneakers.

If Nike wanted to really piss off Kanye, they should release the red octobers as a general release. Kanye would have a melt down.

Lol Ye wanted the Yeezys to be more widely available anyway so I don't think that would make him have a melt down. What could get under his skin is if they retro the yeezy 1&2's once a year or every other year and make them a super GR now that he's with Adidas.

So your suggestion is to give 5000 pairs of sneakers that could, COULD sell for $4000 to childern in third world countries?
Seems legit.

I am suggestion that would be better than destroying them, IF Nike wanted to destroy them. The key word is, "if". Someone posted, Nike is thinking about scraping the release and destroying them. It could be true or false(more than likely false).

All I have to say is, If Kanye paid his dues now, continued with Nike even though he wasn't entirely getting the monetary return he thought he deserved, in 5-10 years that return would be tenfold what Adidas could ever give him. Celebrities don't have patience, they believe because they have lots of money anything is attainable, even intangibles. Kanye wanted more recognition and money, NOW which is rather child like because hes got more money that scrooge mcduck.

Kanye just verbally confirmed on XM station HipHopNation that no more Nike releases will be involving his name.
In order for them to release it he has to sign off on it as well as Mark Parker.
She asked if partnership with Nike is over....he said most definitely. His logic is Nike sells 85% of sneakers in the world, Adidas is at 5%... he thinks his line can get them up to about 25-30%. Plus expect a special D.Rose x Kanye shoe in near future.

U reacting as a fan of Kanye
I'm reacting from what he's saying and his responses...
In every interview he was asked why can't u put up your own millions to start your own business. It bubbled on the Breakfast Club when he spoke about being able to provide for North and it boiled over in that sway interview.
Just b/c he's a celebrity, doesn't mean he's rich. Doesn't mean he's hasn't spent beyond his means.
Unlike most artist that waste their millions on frivolous and materialist things maybe kanye has over spent and wasted millions into his career. The biggest most over the top shows, the most expensive videos, the biggest album budgets, over spending on a start up fashion company, over spending on venues at fashion week in Paris. I mean the guy was buying time slots in between like Versace and Givenchy the last time he had a DW show at fashion week. All of that stuff cost MILLIONS.
Music his cash cow and the label still has to recoup all that bread back...
Idk all I'm saying is dude sounds like he may be broke
