- Guess who's back, baby.
What's popping, players?
It's your boy, A to the Y, Anthony.
Everyone knows a good pair of sneakers
is not only essential for you fit,
but also for your confidence.
That's why I say I'm helping out my boy Pablo
with his shoes.
This is "Pimp My Sneakers".
- Hi, my name is Pablo
and these are my sneakers.
As you can see,
they're not the prettiest, or the newest,
or even respectable at all, but I still love them.
They take me from point A to point B
and that's all that matters.
I take them with me to work, to the club,
I even play basketball in them.
Little kids always roast me
and call me Fred Flintstone's feet
because of the holes in the shoes.
And I guess the color is a little faded,
and the shoe laces were chewed up by opossums
That's a crazy story.
So please, A to the Y,
pimp my sneakers.
- One thing about me,
is I don't miss.
What'd I tell y'all?
Anyway, we just pulled up to Pablo's block
and we're about to see what's up with his sneakers.
But first, your boy got to go change.
I smell a little musty.
- Sorry, no one's home.
- That doesn't make any sense, but I'm looking for Pablo.
I heard he needs some help.
- No speak English.
-Who is it?
-It’s a cholo!
- That's not a cholo,
that's A to the Y.
He's a humanitarian that helps people in need,
like me.
Hey, A to the Y, how you doing, man?
I'm sorry about my cousin.
He doesn't like cholos.
- No worries.
It's a common misconception.
Anyway, I heard you have some sneakers
that need some love and care.
- Yeah, they need a lot of help.
- I'm sure they can't be that bad.
Oh, hell, no.
What is that?
In my 47 years of living on this planet,
I've never seen anything so disgusting in my life.
What happened to them?
- Well, I wear these everywhere.
I wear them in the shower.
I wear them to sleep.
I put them outside when it's raining.
I use them to clean my toilets.
I use them to clean my plates when I'm done eating dinner.
These are durable.
- Those sneakers lived six lives
at least seven different times.
They literally don't even have a sole.
- Oh, yeah, but I like the hole,
it's ventilation for my bunion.
Even if it hurts when I walk.
- Yeah, I don't think you can justify that.
I could literally see the fungus between your toes.
Anyway, just give me a week with those
nasty, pathetic looking shoes
and I'll have my boys at Northeast Southwest Customs
pimp them out.
- Thank you, A to the Y.
I can't wait.
- I can't wait to call the health department on you.
This has to be a crime.
All right, Pablo.
When we first got your sneakers,
they were not only disgusting
but honestly, a disgrace to your whole family.
They were practically decomposing on your feet.
- Hey, those are special to me.
My uncle gave those to me as a graduation gift
and he died.
- Yeah, well, he should have taken him to the grave with him
because those things were ugly.
But thanks to my boys
over at Northeast Southwest Customs,
they did their thing
and I present you your first pimped out sneakers.
- What?
No way.
These are clean!
- So on your other sneakers,
the paint on them was faded,
it was chipping,
and it was pretty much the absence of color.
So for these new sneakers, we gave you a mad,
twisted tomato red paint job.
They pop more than pimples during puberty.
- Now that's popping.
- Trust me,
you're going to be the talk of town with these shoes.
And not only that,
we surrounded your shoes with titanium grip tape.
So now you're never ever, ever going to fall with these.
- Oh, now I won't fall when I wear them in the shower.
- Why would you wear them in the shower?
- It saves a lot of time.
- Nevermind.
We also replaced the tongue of your shoe
with authentic, Amazonian gold snakeskin
imported straight from China.
- What?
I didn't even know that snake existed.
- Oh, no.
The snake isn't a real snake.
It's just the name of a vinyl wrap
we buy on bulkordervinylwraps.com.
- Bulkordervinylwraps.com?
- Bulkordervinylwraps.com.
- Wow.
- I knew you would like that.
And I think you'll love this next one.
We also hooked your shoes up with RGB, led shoelaces.
So now people will see you coming from miles away.
- Whoa, that's actually lit.
- Lit-terally.
- Lit-ter box.
- Yeah, let me do the jokes.
Anyway, like a famous philosopher once said,
"it's about drive,
it's about power".
So we turned your sneakers into a giant power bank
so now you can charge your phone anywhere you are.
- Oh, nice.
I'm always running out of battery.
But what's that screen on the side?
- Oh, you're not ready for that.
That right there is a brand new micro-cellphone
with a two inch touchscreen.
So not only can you call your gramps on there,
but you can also watch some videos.
- Man, that's crazy.
I love watching videos on my shoe.
- Well, now you can.
So Pablo, what do you think about your new sneakers?
- Oh man, I love them.
These are the best shoes I've ever had.
I'm going to take so much care of these shoes
that people are going to be like,
wow, that guy takes care of his shoes.
- But do me a favor,
just please don't wear them in the shower.
- Oh, I will.
Don't tell me what to do.
Thank you so much, A to the Y, for pimping out my shoes.
I can't wait to show 'em off!
- Just don't wear them in the wrong neighborhood.
Anyway, congratulations, Pablo.
Your sneakers have officially been pimped.
