If it’s black, pink and anywhere close to glow-in-the-dark, it’s dubbed a “Yeezy” colorway, and while it has been a game-changing color scheme, it’s surprising that Kanye West<\/strong> hasn’t drawn inspiration from his album covers’ artwork. In this rundown, we explore a number of color options derived from West’s albums, draped over the two signature sneakers in his Nike Air Yeezy<\/a> line. Should there be more colorways of the Yeezys? Drop a line in the comments and vote on which rendering you’d like to see.<\/p>\n

Nike Air Yeezy 2 “The Late Dropout”<\/h2>\n

If Kanye’s first album was a compilation of all 42 tracks from his first two long-players, it probably could’ve been pulled off flawlessly with no complaints. The theme and color scheme of the artwork remained the same, so one colorway covers and commemorates both with no problem.
\n<\/p>\n

Nike Air Yeezy “Graduated”<\/h2>\n

Kanye’s aptly-titled Graduation<\/em> album signaled the closing of a chapter in his musical career and also a marked difference in his fashion sense, departing from “pastelle” and vibrant colors to a more monochromatic and sophisticated look. As a goodbye, and in remembrance of his old life, we present the “Graduated” Yeezy 1.
\n<\/p>\n

Nike Air Yeezy “Heartbroken”<\/h2>\n

Two shoes in, and ‘Ye has yet to outfit his sneakers with a red bottom. Symbolically, you could say the outsole is red from stepping on the deflated heart featured on the album’s cover artwork.
\n<\/p>\n

Nike Air Yeezy 1 & 2 “Throne” Pack<\/h2>\n

The Watch The Throne<\/em> album featured two of hip-hop’s biggest artists on the collaborative cut, and with the Yeezy line two iterations deep, it only makes sense to drop a pack to commemorative the epic, golden opus.
\n<\/p>\n

Nike Air Yeezy 2 “Cruel Summer”<\/h2>\n

A whole album of G.O.O.D. Music can’t be a bad thing, right? Well, maybe if an LP titled “Cruel Summer” actually dropped in the summer, the outcome would have resulted in more income. Hey, Kanye, it’s the summer again, and Yeezy 2 colorways are few and far in between.
\n<\/p>\n

Nike Air Yeezus<\/h2>\n

These aren’t the “Red Octobers,” but with only 50 pairs being given away in a raffle, and no definite answer as to whether the Red Yeezy 2s will even be officially released, an all-red Yeezy 1 wouldn’t be a bad consolation prize.<\/p>\n
