From hip-hop to flip-flop! Kim Kardashian swaps Kanye's Air Yeezys for thongs as she visits the nail salon

She has been proudly showing off the flashy pair of trainers she was gifted by her beau Kanye West over the last few days.

Instead they were replaced by a pair of disposable green flip-flops after she indulged herself by getting a manicure and pedicure.

And the trainers, which are on sale now at a cost of $245, are like gold dust among urban fashion followers.

Inspired by basketball shoes from the late Eighties, the shoes were fetching pre-release prices between $6,000 and $89,000 on eBay.

Being Kanye's girlfriend clearly has its perks, as Kim tweeted a photo of the couple wearing matching Air Yeezys on June 12. 'His & Hers!' she wrote, accompanied by a photo of the pair's feet.
