Earlier this week, we posted the Kanye West x Louis Vuitton “Don” Collection but at that time we still didn’t know how much the sneakers would sell at exactly. In a random prediction, we guessed the shoes would retail at 600+ and boy, were we wrong.

As you can see, the cheapest Kanye West x Louis Vuitton “Don” Sneaker we run you $840 and the highest sits at a whooping $1,140. The collection includes the Mr. Hudson ($840), 5 different colorways of the LV Don’s ($870), and 3 versions of the Jasper’s ($960-1,140).  It’s also being reported that each sneaker gained their names from people closely connected to Mr. West: Mr. Hudson’s  (G.O.O.D. Music Artist), LV Don’s (Kanye Himself / Doc C – Kanye’s Manager), and Jasper’s (Kanye’s Barber).

If you want to match Kanye West’s swagger and reach that level of hundred thousand trillion then prepare to dig deep into your pockets and cash out the $840-1,140 plus tax this coming June 2009.

In between battling the paparazzi, spending time with his girl friend Amber Rose, and designing the soon-to-release Nike Air Yeezy, Kanye West has taken the role as a Louis Vuitton fashion intern and is preparing to release the Kanye West x Louis Vuitton sneaker collection. A few models have already begun to surface online, but here’s look at the latest images to leak on the net.

The Kanye West x Louis Vuitton “Don” Collection will included a low model, called the Don Low, and a high top model, which we’re assuming will be called the Don High. The Don Low will be available in a solid red colorway, a solid black colorway, and a brown / beige / pink / white colorway. As for the high top model, there will be a solid white version, solid black version, and a off-white / brown / pink colorway. Both the Don Low and the High top model sport a quilted flap on the back heel and leather tassels on the laces.

The Kanye West x Louis Vuitton sneakers are set to come out sometime in June 2009 and are expected to retail for $600+ due to the Louis Vuitton brand name.
