Later this month, Rizzoli will be releasing a new book on Kanye West, focusing on last year’s Glow in the Dark tour. The 288-page book provides a look at on stage performances, behind-the-scenes shots, and also includes conceptual sketches by West, costume designs, and stage models. The book comes with an audio CD featuring the previously unreleased live instrumentals for “Hey Mama”, “Touch the Sky”, “Jesus Walks”, and “I Wonder”, as well as an interview with tour collaborator Spike Jonze.

Check out some images from the book after the jump.

For the past few weeks, many have been guessing at what the Kanye Louis Vuitton sneakers would cost. Most had assumed they’d be around $400, but we finally have confirmed prices, and they are far higher than any predictions. There will be one over $1100, but pretty much all of them are around $1000. We also get a look at the names of the sneakers. The shoes hit stores in June.

Following Nike, Kanye West designed a sneaker Louis Vuitton as well. The large padding on the heel was inspired by the over sized collars seen in the sci-fi film, Dune. The sneaker comes in four colourways and is set to release in June.
