According to The Sun, the 'Love Lockdown' singer has a member of staff whose sole responsibility is to keep his 450 pairs of shoes in order.
"I hire someone specially to take care of my shoes," he said. "They clean them, box them and take a polaroid so it's easier to find them."
West, who has his own Louis Vuitton footwear range, recently claimed that he was "forced" to change his name to Martin Louis 'The King' Jr.
