Getting your paws on Adidas‘ feted collaboration with Kanye West—resulting in the unfathomably coveted Yeezy Boosts—proves to be an arduous task at the best of times; an a fearless quest perhaps rivalled only by the hunt for life, or in this case, a kidney, itself.
One Michigan man willing to take the plunge and surrender his Yeezys for such a cause is 26-year-old Matt Neal, who posted on the WDYWT facebook page this morning, putting out a call for type B+ donors who are willing to trade kidneys for kicks.
With the Buy It Now / starting offer kicking off at 1 x working kidney, the price isn’t too far off current listings of Yeezy Boosts on eBay, all things considered.

The attempt is, truth be told, more than a fair request: according to Gift Of Life Michigan, kidneys are the organ most in demand in the state – with close to 3000 patients currently on the waiting list. (Friendly local-related PSA: Australians can no longer sign up to organ donor registry at RTAs. You can sign up to organ donor registry here instead.)
Do you have a kidney to spare, and are you on the hunt for Yeezys to gain?
