We all know that sneakers are a big thing in the world. Everyone wheres them, but what we don't realize is how much of a big part they are in the music business. Sneakers can be more than a style but they can also say something about the person wearing them. They can also be apart of someones life and they can also sometime show us that persons unique style.
I think that one of the most notable artist with a good shoe collection is DC's own Wale, wearing Nike Sb's, Classic Nikes, Jordans, and other original shoes a lot of people don't have.
The style varies from coast to coast, some would say that rappers on the East Coast and Mid West dress better than rappers from down south or west coast. I agree with that, but there are a lot of people that would disagree with that statement. People usually like what they have grown up to see, i grew up in jersey so of course i would like our style over any other i see, and the same for people from the west coast or mid west, or even the south.
It also varies from genre rap, hip-hop, pop, R&B, Country, Rock, and so on. There are some rappers that dress like rockstars and rockstars that dress like rappers. John Mayer has one of the best shoe collections that i have seen out of any artist.
