TSG Exclusive: Wale Talks Sneakers Video

| April 7, 2009 | Comments (68)

Everyone knows Wale the rapper, but how much do you know about his shoe game? You can tell he’s very passionate about sneakers by watching his videos and listening to his music. TSG caught up with Wale while he was in Atlanta to talk about nothing but sneakers. We know all about his music, so we thought it was long overdue for a Wale sneaker interview. In this video Wale talks about how long he’s been in the game, favorite kicks, Holy Grail’s, DC’s sneaker scene, current state of the sneaker culture, kicks he’ll never rock, and more sneaker talk. Check out our video with Wale now and enjoy!

Big ups to Kick Stand
