Kanye West Offers Fan Yeezy Boosts If He'll Throw His Other Sneakers Away

Now that Kanye West's Adidas Yeezy Boosts have seen the light of day, Ye wants to make sure everyone he encounters has a pair. This morning, TMZ captured Kanye and Kim Kardashian's return from the Grammys at JFK, and Kanye is wearing his own shoes—as he did at the Grammys—and offers them to a fan he runs into at the airport.

When Kanye sees the red Nike high-tops the fan is wearing, he can't help but to offer a critique, saying, "The time is coming, no more of those, you know that. Which would you rather have—" and motions between his own sneakers and the fan's.

The fan answers (correctly), that he'd rather have Kanye's shoes.

And then Kanye makes him an offer he can't refuse, asking, "If I could give you these right now, would you throw those in the trash right away?"

The fan answers (correctly, once again), "Yes." Bye, sucker red shoes, this dude is getting himself a brand new pair of Yeezy Boosts.

Kanye then tells his security to make sure to get the kid's information so he can make sure he gets a pair and finds the way to enlightenment, adding, "I'm gonna get you some of those. You know what I'm saying? You just need to be enlightened. You just need to feel free, that's what I'm saying. We gonna hook you up today, man. No more oppression."

You can watch the full thing on TMZ and enjoy as Kanye shuts down as a paparazzo asks if he's "venturing into the fashion industry." Hi, um, he's shown at Paris Fashion Week twice and is showing this week at New York Fashion Week—he's already ventured. Kanye, of course, puts it better than anyone else could, replying, "Am I venturing into the fashion industry? Do you see this coat?" Bye.
