Dwayne Gates Jr. has just set up a petition for all sneakerheads and Yeezy fans across the world. Dwayne set up a Change.org petition asking Nike to re-release the ultra-rare Air Yeezy 2 shoes. The Air Yeezy 2’s were the last Kanye West/Nike shoe collaboration before switching to market rival Adidas. The pair of shoes were highly coveted and so sought after they were listed for $80,000 on eBay.
The petition states the following:
“Sneakerheads have been killed over these shoes, gone into debt, have killed for these, robbed for these, bought fake versions of them, been robbed for them etc. How long must this occur. Nike can easily just produce a mass amount in each color (platinum, solar red, red October) and solve this problem.”
The petition currently has over 12,000 signatures. To support and sign the petition visit here.
