What up everybody? It's Joe from Complex. We're right outside of
Oakland with all pro running back Marshawn Lynch at District.
We're going to browse the shelves. We're going to see what he's
Feeling.
I know y'all probably got a line on Kayne. Tell him to send me
Some of these or something. Send me some Yeeze's ya hear?
And hopefully he's going to buy some sneakers tonight.
Let's do it.
Let's rock.
I know you're a big fan of foamposites. We saw you with a
Couple through the season, off - off the field. Which ones are
You feeling right now?
Yeah I'm feeling some of these right here though.
You like - yeah, these are kind of like the original ones.
With the- but they have the Sharpie.
Yeah these solid right here and uh... these going too-
These going crazy right now. A little different material on these
Yeah.
I mean you know, you can't go wrong with no
Foamposites thought, to be honest with you.
Growing up was it important for you to have the best sneakers?
Growing up man, you just had to rock with what you had to rock with.
Yeah.
I mean you know I did a lot of Payless shoe stores.
Really?
Yeah man. The combat boots - them probably was my best shoes
Cause they lasted the longest, but You know moms couldn't come
And drop... let me see-
Yeah. That's going to be like two fifty.
Yeah mom couldn't drop no two fifty on a pair of shoes.
I got brothers and sisters - I had to- get taken care of too.
So, as you can see we have the Deon Sanders signature shoe.
Michael Vick, Calvin Johnson, Darrelle Revis, Bo Jackson.
These players got their off field signature shoe. How important is something
Like that for you? Um I mean it ain't too important. I mean you know
It probably will be cool, if uh- somebody was talking about they
Can't wait till Saturday when them Air Shawn's going to drop so..
You know what I'm saying?
Yeah.
It'll be a solid look. You I I done wore all of these shoes before. So-
You know I mean i'm a support them.
The most, kind of, adored classic sneakers are Jordans. I was doing
Research and I saw you in Oregon 5's.
Mmm-hmm.
Super limited. How did you come up on those?
I mean you just gotta know people. You know what
I'm saying? When you got people in high places they make things
Happen.
Are you a type to wear those a lot or wear them one and stun.
Or do you wear them till like they fall off?
Oh no, I'm I'm I I - I probably wear them a few times. Uh
Then I like to do the hand me down thing.
Okay.
I going to pass them down to - to a little brother. Or I might just-
You know, donate them to somebody in my foundation.
Awesome. Kayne's.
Yep.
Did you ever have a pair?
No, they out of my price range. I know y'all probably got a line
On Kanye, tell him to send me some of these or something.
Yo, Kanye, if you're listening. He will-
Send your boy a pair of shoes man.

Nice to meet you. Marshawn who who is this?
It's my lovely little sister.
So he was talking about that he wears sneakers and
Then gives them away.
At his camp I help give them away.
It's like if they do good in the camp or if they work hard.
Or less fortunate, they look like they need shoes. He give them away.
You know he asks what size they wear. And if they have their size,
Then he meet their size.
How big are you into sneakers?
You ain't no sneaker head.
Yeah I did.

On your instagram we saw that you have a collaboration with
Greats coming out. W- And it's kind of more this style. Less
Athletic and more lifestyley. Um what - what's up with that collaboration?
What can we expect from it?
I think they going to do really well- I think they only going to make about
Two hundred pair. So they going to be really limited.
Oh wow.
But uh, uh - when they drop I think they - they probably going to go
The first day.
You know we talked about the story of going to Payless and now
Actually having your own sneaker that is going to sell out in one day.
How does that make you feel?
I mean, it's crazy man. You know I never was-
You know, think about something outside of football.

But uh- You know I mean- it it's going to be a proud moment.
But some shoes that I probably want to try on
Yeah.
