Kanye West has dominated the music industry and recently has tried to dominate the fashion industry as well. He has done this by designing coveted sneakers like the nike air yeezy 2 and the yeezy 350 and 750 boost.

This has caused many people who are not part of the sneaker or fashion movement to try and receive a pair of the coveted yeezys.This has also demonstrated that teenagers are willing to spend most of their money just to fit in or do what’s cool.

Just like anything else, teenagers are willing to spend top dollar on items that will make them feel more confident or popular. With the release of the new Yeezys people have tried buying a pair even if they might not necessarily like the shoe and with a starting price tag of $250 retail, yeezys are not cheap, and resell prices go no lower than $800.

Some people wake up in the dawn of mornings and enter many instagram raffles in hopes of being able to buy a yeezy boost. Some of these people also have never collected a sneaker in their life, or even knew that Kanye West also made sneakers with nike before he went to adidas.

There is nothing wrong with liking a shoe designed by kanye west, what is wrong is when people disregard its design and like it because they saw Kylie Jenner wearing the shoes. Not only do people buy the shoes just because celebrities wear them, but also because owners of the shoe can flaunt on how the resale price of the shoes is not cheap.

People of all ages should wear what they like, and not wear something just because they believe other people will perceive them as cooler than before. The way one dressed used to be a way for people to express themselves, now its become a way for people to try to “fit in” or to be “cool.”
