The Nike SB Stefan Janoski Max “Mosaic” utilizes a unique wear-away construction in which the vibrant primary colors of the upper will eventually fade away to reveal an underlying pristine white.

The Nike SB Dunk Low “Grail” champions iridescent qualities while a gold skull lace dubrae is a nice harkening back to the guardians of the Holy Grail.

The Nike SB High “Stained Glass” has one of the craziest all over prints a Dunk model has seen in a while, as a transparent overlay on the ankle support adds to the cathedral inspiration.

Concepts will also roll out extremely limited custom wooden boxes for each shoe in both their Cambridge and New York locations. This perk has sneaker heads already lining up for the limited release. This is only the beginning just wait until dawn Saturday morning!

How could Nicholas Morgenstern ever top avocado-toast ice cream? In collaboration with First We Feast, he’s hosted a very special Kanye West Ice Cream Week.  Morgenstern’s Finest Ice Cream will sell special sundaes all inspired by what West’s fantasy ice-cream parlor might look like.

The offerings included Kim Kardashian Thirst Trap Sundae (sesame-caramel ice cream with Champagne-caramel sauce and whipped cream), All Day Vanilla Ice-Cream Cake (vanilla cake, vanilla ice cream), and, best of all, I Am a God Ice Cream Croissantwich: vanilla ice cream stuffed inside a custom-made Arcade Bakery  croissant.

For the fun of it lets imagine what Kayne West Ice Cream Week could look like without a reality check:

1. The Happy Host – Kayne himself will coop up his Yeezy frozen favorites:

2. The Kim K Double Scoop- A full double scoop of Ass Munch favored imitation chocolate ice cream (10 per cent milk, and 90 percent cellulite). Try sprinkling on some Ray J nuts for a salty bite.

3. Kanye’s Drippy Cone- Comes with a shot of penicillin.

4. Kanye West Yeezy 2 Red October Sundae Overpriced and overrated, will put inches on your waist while slimming your wallet.
