Kanye West has already conquered the music industry -- and now he wants you to spend $5,800 on a pair of his high heels. The hip-hop star created these pearl-embroidered stilettos in collaboration with Italian designer Giuseppe Zanotti -- and now they've been picked up by high-end Parisian boutique Colette, which will release them in the spring, The Insider reports.


The heels made their debut during Paris Fashion Week last October -- and while reviews for Kanye's duds were mixed, the shoes were popular, MTV reports. "I snuck to Giuseppe Zanotti Factory still under contract and learned to design women's shoes for 2 years before my first show in Paris," West tweeted.
Zanotti, for one, is a fan. "[Kanye] loves learning about shoes [...] both the design and construction, and we've tried to design something together," he told Womens Wear Daily. He added, "In a couple of months, he could have his own special collection out." If the fancy shoes are a little too steep for your budget, don't worry too much: a second, all-black pair in velvet leather will retail for a mere $930.
