In LVoe with Louis Vuitton: More on Louis Vuitton and Kanye West Sneakers

In 2009, you'd be remissed to name a rapper at the time bigger than Kanye. Proof can be found in his collaboration with luxury brand Louis Vuitton that dropped the same year. Anchored by three models, the Jasper's, Don's, and Mr. Hudson's, in a total of 10 colorways, SG highlights the Don's Patchwork (with five colorways in total). It features a mid-top silhouette, a combination of premium leather and suede paneling, and some of the most interesting color-blocking you'll find on a sneaker.

Kanye West’s signature Jasper silhouette with Louis Vuitton is named after his acclaimed stylist, Ibn Jasper. The upper features a patchwork application that incorporates a series of grey leathers with different textures and layering techniques, while the ribbed suede paneling on the heel matches the tone of the tongue lining. Two straps reinforce support, and the laces showcase a tassel design with gold locks on the ends for a premium appeal.
