The Nike Air Yeezy 2 “Red October” remains one of the most legendary sneakers of all time, but a never-before-seen Looksee Sample has recently surfaced, showcasing a plush leather toebox and leather scale side panels instead of the standard mesh. This version, rumored to be one of only two in existence, offers an ultra-exclusive twist on Kanye West’s final Nike sneaker before his transition to Adidas.
First released unexpectedly via Nike’s website in February 2014, the retail version of the Red October became an instant cultural icon, marking the end of West’s partnership with Nike. However, this sample edition takes exclusivity even further, featuring premium leather construction that enhances the sneaker’s already luxurious feel.
According to English Sole, this one-of-a-kind pair is currently valued at $75,000, a testament to its rarity and cultural significance. With the hype for Nike Yeezy retros stronger than ever, this alternate take on the Red October only fuels speculation about a possible re-release in the future.
