[Music] put up everybody's Joe from complex or in New York City at stadium goods with globally renowned actor singer and model Chris Wu everyone's on these men but there's so many they find in China good to do some sneaker shopping today good to see what he's feeling what he's not and then I'll hopefully is gonna buy some sneakers they'll get it let's go you travel a lot but you lived in China what is the biggest difference between sneaker shopping in China versus the major cities in the states like LA or New York if you want like a like a fault like a more collection like more choices affect selections you want to be out here then China they like Jordans been so hot like over the years everyone's it's kind of crazy about it too extreme fashion not that so right now I would say if you go like ageing Shanghai will be like similar you'll get like the folks perience to your influence is so palpable in Asia what u.s. celebrities are influential overseas guys like Drake that you know viana Chris Brown yeah yeah so they're huge no tribe is scotch I was blown got rain that's here so like that definitely male hip hop's becoming like so so big right now in China because bacala dating and hip hop was kind of underground it's been in the ground for a long time I was kind of like almost like kind of seemed negatively the whole time I was it's so conservative back home you know it was kind of different but then after the show that kind of brought hip on to the lights and everyone's like all all got hit on that hip hop music the culture they love it you have a specific pair that you got a few years ago that paid a grip for that are very special to you what were those now wish I had a mom I had them here today I to show you me and my friends I've been talking about like the og ones no I was like I wish I can get a pair of those right and then I started looking on like crazy everywhere like in like Asia and I found one on eBay it's got tag saying 85 0 7 0 91 Wow that's the like that oh she the first pair of AJ ones black and red crazy so it was these but in the OJ was a straight up OG it was it was kind of liked one down a little bit but it's still in good condition though I probably wore them only once in my lifetime though and right now it's just like a collection that I have at my home puppy I feel that if I keep it for another 10 years the price would go out and be double yeah everyone's like there's no way you can get one because they're so box and papers and everything everything was I you know what I'm gonna find it and I found it man but 6 K though that's crazy yeah about three years ago you've been photographed a lot in these Jordan to lows which is kind of like a a choice that strict Jordan heads may not go to but you keep it open when it comes to choosing Jordan design fair to say yeah pretty much cuz I was really never found during to like I was never I was into threes yeah once or 11 but never to but then this how I was like I just walked in I was like why not give it a shot right and then you know it was really comfortable and it kind of matched like the type of stuff I was wearing at that time so our were these were probably for like a straight month let's go to a section about a sport that you had dreams of playing professionally all right let's do it [Applause] you know Steph Curry and LeBron now they make trips to China once or twice a year yeah Steph was in Shanghai things like about a week ago so what's the global impact of Steph Curry and LeBron in China huge man like first of all basketball has been like ever since Yao Ming you know these guys they doing good in the NBA it just it just blew the up the sports so everyone like loves Iverson out there that Kobe t-mac and that is you got stuff you got the Brawn you know what I wouldn't buy the trying to sports huge man everyone's playing basketball and I was like yeah yeah yeah I'm good like I'm on it oh that's pretty you showed up just ballin yeah and that's hot then that's how they scouted me to the pro they're like oh this guy can follow and I was like six six one and like age of 15 you know like he's got potential right yeah they scouted me now is in like playing for like a year to then the thing is like I stopped growing ever after yeah I'm into this guy he's continually 60 yeah thank you she's gonna be like huge enjoy so they started me like playing like for it because they think I might grow taller right it's never happy [Music] is there stuff in this case that you've never seen in real life before I know are these pretty much I like these man I thought this is really your collaboration the material using on this one it's the color way man I think this one's a really dope for sure and then the Tiffany yeah I don't think I have that yet I was thinking about I don't know what happened I just never got one it's funny I actually ordered them off eBay years ago like when they first came out it was a fake pair but I love the Tiffany dunks yeah then over here we have some supreme collabs I know that you've had the supreme up tempos yeah I'm all about the supreme collaboration man I don't have these ones though I'm not gonna lie if they have my size I'm getting these today a man taking them home this is real and these ones are those too because they got like the Agins yeah this is those and then here one question I want to ask it came out a couple weeks ago that adidas has overtaken Jordan and sales do you see the competition in China as well yeah for sure man yeah everyone's on these men but there's so many fake bunions I'm really they look exactly the same - you know to be honest man like I'm kind of like over the easies now when I first came out with super dope like these guys the bill but yeah and then when I started going like this way I was just like I don't know man like this is kind of nice if ye playing you can just easy to mix and match did you like the Tom Sachs collaboration it was a big collab that came out a couple months ago they're they're fire if you don't have those you this is one that you should definitely you're not getting those size 12 Oh perfect

I'm surprised he's a true and blue sneakerhead..also to my knowledge he is the only guest ever who has been cool on the Yeezys. Truly in his own galaxy!

[u/Drilluminator]

It's been so long since I've seen a guest actually drop racks on this series, and he got some heat, probably one of the better episodes I've seen

[u/PureS0u1]

Damn, i wanna get the Nike Tom Sachs too
