Rowdy Sneaker Shopping

Rowdy Rebel recently went Downtown to meet up with Joe La Puma for a special edition of Complex’s Sneaker Shopping series.

During their unorthodox interview, the Brooklyn Drill master spoke about finally being out of jail, his basketball playing days, affinity for Air Jordans, comical unfamiliarity with Off-white and reuniting with Bobby Shmurda.  My favorite moment in this sitdown (well, standup rather) is when Joe mentioned the famed sneaker store on Utica Avenue in BK called “Sneaker King.”  Sh*t, I’m surprised he even knew about that spot (great research, my guy!).  

A few years ago, I lived a few minutes away from the aforementioned shoe shop, and I must say, it is clutch for limited releases. Shout out to “Get Set” on Nostrand Ave. as well! I’m not sure if they’re still open for business, but I did stroll down the old hood to take a quick flick for those who are not familiar with it:
