We’re calling it. Kanye West is obsessed with the Air Jordan Aqua 8s as much as he’s obsessed with auto-tune. Today photos surfaced of Mr. West walking into his car after a workout session with Jonah Hill and for the 14857 time, he’s rocking a crisp pair of the Aqua 8s.
Whether he’s in street clothes, performing, playing ball or in weightlifting mode, the mullet-man seems to prefer this specific Jordan over anything else. Dare we say, even the Yeezys? Walk with us through a brief photo history of Kanye stomping around the aquas.
UPDATE: Kicks On Fire also has a in-depth look at Kanye’s favorite Jordans. Click here.

It’s 2009 and you’re talking about “matching.”
“Matching is for lames who rock Coogit polos, with Coogi pants or toddlers.
STFU!
sweet J’s. personally like the retro 8’s from the coutdown pack
UM TO Da_King..YOU DONT HAVE TO BE OVERLY MATCHY WHEN DRESSING. THATS ACTUALLY CONSIDERED WACK. WHAT HE’S DOING IS MIS-MATCHING, BUT THE COLORS STILL COMPLIMENT EACH OTHER. LIKE IF U HAVE ON LIME GREEN KICKS..PUT ON A TANGERINE COLORED SHIRT TO MAKE DEM SNEAKERS POP. THIS LETS YOU PAY ATTENTION TO BOTH ITEMS. I YOU HAVE ON ALL GREEN NOTHING STANDS OUT……(JUST A FASHION LESSON 1:1)
These are fav’s too. There is soo much stuff to match them these days wit the 90’s coming back in style. Fux wit a purple, teal (aqua) or black shirt and it’s a WRAP B!…
great pick but upcoming Nike Griffeys are my favorite…..
Who da fck matches anymore its 09 get wit the program fckn lames..but honestly the aqua’s r one of my fav pair of kicks of all tyme
I agree matching is so overated. jus da ohta day i had on a turquoise/purple/black color block hoodie with a all black pleather jacket with all blck white supras and wear i stay everbody wearing american eagle trying 2 match and dey ask me wat da hell im doin i tell 1st of all 2 cold 2 try 2 match and itz 09 who still matchez?! I dont even try sometimes for me it jus fall in place
I mean itz 09 matching is for broke people who wear the same outfit with the same kicks and they happen to wear the same outfit 4 times week matching is for lames 4real
