Kanye West Provided Free Yeezys For The Paps


Future presidential candidate
Kanye West is an oft-photographed man. There’s a variety of reasons for this (Kim, fame, Kanye living a Kanye life) and a few of the folks that have taken a number of snaps of the almighty Yeezus have been gifted some shoes courtesy of their bread and butter.

Kanye, who has a bit of a mixed relationship with the paps, offered up a pretty sweet gift for the paparazzi that have been assigned to his beat. Photographer Jack Arshakyan showcased multiple pairs of Adidas Yeezy 350 Boosts given as gifts to himself and his colleagues. How did this whole foot housing business come about? In November, Kanye declared he’s hook up paps with free Yeezy sneakers. Smash cut to today where those shoes are being introduced to the paps that’ll wear ’em. That’s some brilliant marketing from Kanye. It’s one thing to boast about having the ability to escape linebackers or steal home plate, but it’s a whole other thing to be the shoe choice for folks that spend their day chasing after Taylor Swift.

“Thx to Kim Kardashian and Kanye West for hooking me and my fellow papz up with Yeezy boost 350,” shared Arshakyan in the accompanying caption.

In addition to playing Kanye Claus, the sweater loving dad has another engagement on the go. MTV has given Kanye West some free time to do as he pleases at this weekend’s VMAs. Consider this news tidbit to be a warning not to include “Steve Jobs mentions” and “listen to the kids, bro” in your VMA drinking games for your own personal health and safety.
