Kanye West Shoes Can Now Be Yours -- For $6,000 (PHOTOS)

The Huffington Post   First Posted: 03/01/2012 3:47 pm Updated: 03/01/2012 3:50 pm

Remember when Kanye West tried to be a fashion designer? Remember when we all kind of LOLed about it? Remember when the clothes turned out to not actually be that bad?

The line Dw by Kanye premiered at Paris Fashion Week back in October 2011, featuring shoes that Kanye designed after spending tons of time chilling with shoe king Giuseppe Zanotti.

One of those pairs was a ruffly white crochet stiletto that made it into Harper's Bazaar Australia and that vaguely resembled, well, infantwear. (The Gloss hilariously christened them "sexy baby booties.")

Well, guess what: those shoes can now be yours -- shoppers have spotted them for sale at posh French boutique Colette.

But obvs, Kanye shoes (Kanyoes?) are not going to come cheap. Colette is reportedly selling them for 4420 euros, or $5,887.

He's got the outrageous fashion pricing down, and he even designed more shoes that showed at Dion Lee's collection in London this spring -- maybe Kanye should pack up his unisex sweaters for London and move there after all.

Scroll down for more photos to see Kanye's first collection in full.

Different yes, but can't find the sexy in them. You can do better for a whole lot less coin.

I'm wondering what kind of damage a shoe like this would do to one's feet. But then again , I doubt anyone would wear them jogging :)

Those are shoes? Looks like Kanye threw up packing peanuts on the model's foot.

It looks like the model wearing those ugly shoes didn't shave her legs.

I understand that women don't shave their legs in Europe. When I was in Paris 20 years ago, you could clearly see that they didn't.

I think the shoes are cute but I would never pay all that money for something that I could do. If you want a real laugh do the slide show and see the dresses (if that what they are suppose to be). The are the most horrendouse things I have ever seen, not just 1 or 2 but all of them. UGH

The victim of this story is the person who spent soo much time and energy doing the bead work for such an ugly shoe. What a waste!
