In Kanye related news, he was spotted wearing rare Nikes.

In the pictures, Ye is wearing a full facemask, a blue puffer jacket, and a pair of Nike Vandals. While they might not seem like much, the pair West had on is pretty hard to come by. The Nikes released back in 2015 as a promo item for the movie, Terminator Genisys. The pair was inspired by the shoe Kyle Reese wore in James Cameron’s 1984 sci-fi classic, The Terminator. The pair goes for about $500 on StockX, and over $1,000 on other sites. One pair was even going for more than $14,000.
