What They Wore: Celebrity Sneaker Stalker
Posted by Nice Kicks | May 18, 2009
While you guys were watching the Lakers and the Magic sending the Rockets (sorry Houston fans) and Celtics packing, we were scouring the net for photos of celebrities rockin’ your favorite kicks. The majority of pics come from Big Sean and Drake’s concert in Detroit. While Large Sean rocked the 1st colorway of the Yeezy’s, Drake went with the Jordan VIII’s and even Wale made an appearance wearing the silver ½ Cents. Hit the jump to see the concert flicks as well as Pharrell in Vans x Supreme, Kanye in Jordan VIII’s and Kid Cudi wearing the Jordan V’s from the Bravo pack, early. Who’s killin’ ‘em this time? Let us know in the comments. |
Wale wears the 1/2 Cent, Big Sean rocks the Yeezys and Drake wears the Jordan VIII’s in Detroit
Kid Cudi wears the Jordan V from the “Toro Bravo” pack.

May 22, 2009 at 6:40 am
skinny jeans are for WOMEN!!!!
smh @ Cudi
May 21, 2009 at 4:12 pm
Big Sean Killed it. everyone else was just okay. I think they caught Kanye comin’ back from playing basketball so he wouldn’t be killin’ it, and Kid Cudi was just shopping and didn’t feel up to trying to kill it.
May 20, 2009 at 6:59 pm
Lovin the Aquas main, got fresh pair myself. Waiting for this Seattle rain to let up so I can rock them again!!
May 20, 2009 at 5:26 pm

May 20, 2009 at 9:37 am
drakes jeans arent even that baggy…
bayAREAkid is supa lame seriously… “its for us high school sneakerheads”???
fudge is u t’om bout boi… everbody aint built for skinny’s, & that makes u lame for tryna impose that everyone should hop on’a a band wagon jus cuz u’re a follower… & i quote WALE “dem true religions make ya butt look ugly youngin”… dat skinny jeans is ideal for skateboards homie make’n it easier to skate, notice how everyone but SKATEBOARD P has baggy jeans on…
holla at a drain smoothie kid cuz u hav much to learn…LOL
May 19, 2009 at 8:36 pm
SKINNY jeans are the best!!!!!… It’s the NEW style.. Its for us high school sneakerheads!!.
Y’all must be OLD & grimmey buying Js!.. With kids!.. Hahaha.. Y’all LAME..
” you a JERK… I know”.. Hahaha jerkin movement! All day!
May 19, 2009 at 5:22 pm
kid cudi got a swag but he shouldve at least wore vans or chucks with those shoes or any other low profile shoe instead or jordans.jordans are for baggy jeans
May 19, 2009 at 5:19 pm
HOW DA HELL DID WALE GET DEM 1/2 CENTS ALREADY!?!?!
May 19, 2009 at 2:04 pm
I don’t get why some ppl still think Kid Cudi jean is “fitted.” Cause its not. And I totally agree with the person who mention how back in the days ppl would make fun of others for wearing tight jeans. Now those bullies are the same ones wearing skinny jeans. F.ucking hypocrits. And yea, what about straight leg fitted jeans? Those aren’t baggy and they’re def not skinny. And you can find em for between $20-$50! Just remember, grown men don’t sag. Fyi, the store Cudi is in is American Apparel.
May 19, 2009 at 10:54 am
AQUA 8s hands down, I have them on today and I wear them more than any other shoe in my collection
May 19, 2009 at 9:22 am
BigHead, you’re an idiot, the store cudi is in, is American Apparel and it is not expensive at all
May 19, 2009 at 8:53 am
yo that store cudi’s in is in greenpoint ,brooklyn
i shop there its costs mad dinero
May 19, 2009 at 7:33 am
its outta cudi with the torro vs and wale with the 1/2 cents drake has no style baggy ass pants die in 02 just like 50 cent career please baggy jeans are DEAD
May 19, 2009 at 6:25 am
The skinny jeans movement has to die very quickly its like swine flu please get that antibotic for thsi sickness!!!
May 19, 2009 at 4:15 am
^^^true. I really like wale alot he looks like someone I could kick it wit…and he dress like a ordinary sneakerhead type of person….real cool dude.
May 19, 2009 at 3:24 am
Wale is probably the only person who tries to look decent everyone else look like they just jumped up and threw something on. I don’t think like this new style, the concept of not matching is beyond me. You can pretty throw anything on it don’t matter if the colors go together not as long as you have some hot kicks it don’t matter. I ‘m not sayin you have to wear the exact same color on everything but can the color schemes at least go together. How does a blue and yellow tee, a fire engine red hat, and grey pink and orange kicks go together on top of that is a brown louis vuitton belt. I don’t even know why they put kanye up he was ballin, what does that have to do with style but I guest cuz he wearin the VII’s. There’s no thought into anything they do now just throw it on and everybody’s going to like it because I am who I am. I’m not hatin but they used to try harder than they do now.
May 19, 2009 at 2:50 am
Blah… you can’t really decide hu’s wearing their shoes best since ALL of them (’cept Kanye) have their backs to the camera…. Oh well.
On the skinny v baggy jeans topic, what about straight jeans? That should please everyone.
May 19, 2009 at 1:19 am
people kill me wit the baggy jeans vs skinny jeans. yes the skinttights denim is ntcool but so is have big ass pants that fall off ur ass and make u look like a blob. bee there and down that. i will never rock skint tight jeans but i’ll rock some fitted loose custem levi’s or tru religions
May 19, 2009 at 1:09 am
NIKE please come out wit the EGGPLANT CW of the 1/2 cents… I will def spen another $190 on those…anyone else agree???
May 19, 2009 at 1:08 am
Oh nd the new CW’s for the 1/2 cents are sum ugly ass shoes…Glad i got my royal blue ones cuz these CW’s are not crackin…
May 19, 2009 at 1:06 am
All of their fits are garbage…they need to learn how to dress….The first picture of all 3 of them on stage look like they retarted or like they in a Special ED class…horrible…
May 19, 2009 at 1:02 am

May 18, 2009 at 11:00 pm
first off if youre still rocking baggy or oversized jeans you gotta check yourself..kudi’s jeans arent tight. they are fit. the way you are suppose to wear clothes.
May 18, 2009 at 10:05 pm

May 18, 2009 at 10:04 pm

May 18, 2009 at 7:21 pm
They killed these outfits…I think Wale redeemed himself from that TB III Catostrophe.!Lol.
-Everybody outfit was killer…Lovin that the rap game is gettin bacc to original acts instead of the same type rappers…BLing and big ass Shirts.!
May 18, 2009 at 7:09 pm
amazin- How do you even know P’s Vans are scuffed??
Or are you just being a smart ass, looking to gather a few “lol’s??”
May 18, 2009 at 7:05 pm
Also - remember when peopl got picked on as a child, for wearing tight clothing?
Or those who picked on others for doing so?
Now it’s “cool” to do so.
Much like being a “nerd” is or not belonging to the “in crowd”…
People kill me with this trend hopping to be “different,” yet looking the same as eeveryone else.
May 18, 2009 at 7:04 pm
If u have a problem wit judging mens clothes den u most not b dat confident in ur sexuality …der nothin wit dis kind of column…wat happens wen u see a dude wearin a pair of kicks dat u may or may not have u don’t react by sayin why am I lookin at dat guy for…so jus shut up nd appreciate dis cool column
I like dis new thing nicekicks good job..i’m like addicted to dis website
May 18, 2009 at 7:03 pm
tell me why pharrell is a millionaire and hes rockin some scuffed up vans?
May 18, 2009 at 7:01 pm
Damn I see some major haterage at the beginning of these comments, geez!
But I do agree with MANY about this skinny jean craze.
Save that sh!t for the females…
I actually wonder if ‘Ye can hoop, or is he one of those that do it for the cardio??
May 18, 2009 at 6:57 pm

May 18, 2009 at 6:22 pm
Kanye was shooting hoops, don’t think he was trying to make a fashion statement.
Pharell don’t even wear his own sneakers now more lol, he’s just waiting for that Vans deal to come through
May 18, 2009 at 6:15 pm
Funny to me how kid cudi stay wearin those brown skinny jeans .. Check his day n nite video he weared dem wit blk cement 3s and in the battle wit him and wale wearing trb 3s and once again here wit these 5s
May 18, 2009 at 5:58 pm

May 18, 2009 at 5:46 pm

May 18, 2009 at 5:26 pm
And why doesnt pharrell rock any ice cream sneakers anymore, Im waiting on what sneakers IC gon come with next and skateboard P keeps pullin out the Low Vans. Whats up?
May 18, 2009 at 5:24 pm
I coulda sworn this about shoes…a therapy group for dudes who look at other men’s pants ain’t what I signed up for.
May 18, 2009 at 5:22 pm
Lol..everybody has the aqua 8s, i sware shops musta been givin em’ away. Im really feelin the silver 1/2 cents tho and the toro 5s are dope…but i personally just prefer OG colorways of Jordans.
May 18, 2009 at 5:20 pm
hipster rappers eh..
May 18, 2009 at 5:02 pm
I agree with cat above, Nicekickz should dedicate to the people who struggle and wait inline for these kicks instead of celebrities who get them for free.
May 18, 2009 at 4:39 pm
What do you wear @ Joshua, leggings–excuse me, “fitted jeans”- and v neck undershirts?
May 18, 2009 at 4:28 pm
Cudi is the winnwe this round…love those Toro 5’s…im waiting to get my hands on those…maybe this saturday or the next….
May 18, 2009 at 4:13 pm

May 18, 2009 at 3:20 pm

Cholly Da Beat Man, folks u’a fool for dat 1…
May 18, 2009 at 3:19 pm
My shoes - yeah: most new kicks are wack (see jordan element, jordan ol skool… & on) My jeans - no: my balls need some room to swang. I dont wanna have to fold up my package to get dressed.
May 18, 2009 at 3:16 pm

May 18, 2009 at 3:14 pm
HAHAHAHAHAHA, Ye’s rocking young shorts!!!!
May 18, 2009 at 3:14 pm

May 18, 2009 at 3:13 pm
Y do the 1/2 cents gotta cost so much
May 18, 2009 at 3:13 pm
unfortunately fashion is equivalent to karma loop lil homie, stuff stay comin back in style, jus like retro jays, charles barkely, penny’s, bo jackson af1’s, dunks etc…
May 18, 2009 at 3:12 pm
<—- Pouring out a 40 for my Aqua’s that my old dog chewed up.
May 18, 2009 at 3:05 pm
Nut-huggers got played out in the 80s along with acid wash, leather vests, airbrush, jheri curls & Iroc’s

Re: Pic #2
BTW, who’s the crackhead shoplifting in aisle 5?
May 18, 2009 at 3:05 pm

May 18, 2009 at 2:59 pm
Yeah keep the jeans baggy - i mean what u tryna do show a camel toe? If I had on lil girl pants like Cudi i know for a fact my balls would ache all day. I’ll be at Hilltop mall Richmond CA with my eggplants on Saturday for my TB-V pack if yall need a cue on how to rock fits
May 18, 2009 at 2:59 pm
I’m just sayin. I’m a man of the people homeboy. Much respect to sneakerheads savin up to buy their kicks
May 18, 2009 at 2:56 pm

May 18, 2009 at 2:54 pm
no that was def a type-o home bro…lol
seriously reach out for sumthin’ to play me on, but its not that serious…lol
May 18, 2009 at 2:54 pm
Love all the ghetto fashionistas who mock pants that fit and shorts that look like shorts. What is Kayne supposed to ball in, baggy capri pants? Y’all got the saggy gear ready for that Limp Bizkit reunion.
May 18, 2009 at 2:53 pm
but i will apologize to you, since u gettin’ geek’d for sum e drama…lol MY BAD…
May 18, 2009 at 2:53 pm
To trill moronroy did u say “we celebrities”cuz I never heard of u. Stop swingin frum these rappers balls groupie
May 18, 2009 at 2:52 pm
Gunther Deniro getta grip on life… im quite sure that nike leaks out some of this info to inquire what we feel about it… if you’ont think nike is lookin at any of the complex media network blogs u’re sadly mistakin…
May 18, 2009 at 2:52 pm
Kanye always wearing those aquas those are his favs no doubt
May 18, 2009 at 2:49 pm
you got one JJboston…
fam do wear the same jeans…
big sean is decent, but hes kinda soft compared to drake. look at drakes progress form: comeback season, to room for improvement, to so far gone, from each one his diction grows and bars get more complex…. big sean is good, but not gonna say he has more potential than drake, especially the way hes buzzin and the bars that hes kickin… no diss to big sean…
May 18, 2009 at 2:48 pm
Those 1/2 Cents are insane!!!! (He Must be a SAMPLE SIZE!!!!).. lol
May 18, 2009 at 2:43 pm
Seriously everybody is focused on the wrong ppl… Wale is a sneaker head… Like full fledged sneaker head… I am sure his Jordan game is up there right along with his SB game… I mean seriously he is killing it in the 1/2 Cents… And I’m sure we will be seeing him a lot more often
May 18, 2009 at 2:42 pm
Yo trill moronroy. Whut u care if the shoes r marketable idiot. I didn’t know nice kicks is owned by Nike dummy
May 18, 2009 at 2:36 pm
i give it to cudi
May 18, 2009 at 2:35 pm
How did NiceKicks manage to obtain all of my favorite new artist in one Segment??!! LOL! But anyway I would have to say out of all the Big Sean killed it, Wale also killed it, Cudi did his thing, and Kanye and Pharell were relatively dresse down. As for Drake, I don’t care for his style sense but to each his own. My stlye probably favors Big Seans more than anyone of the guys. And kinds off subjuect I feel Big Sean has more potential than Drake, if u don’t believe me listen to his Mixtapes Finally Famous Vols. 1 and 2 and see his growth from each one. Just my opion so please check your hate at the door.
May 18, 2009 at 2:34 pm
and no its not the same show. last show was the pink/black yeezys now its da grape 8’s get it 2getha rich ppl
May 18, 2009 at 2:31 pm
drake wears those jeans @ every show
May 18, 2009 at 2:27 pm
1/2 cents, J’s looiin good tho… pass on them yee-z’s
May 18, 2009 at 2:26 pm
I would receive a concussion from a blunt objects by random people if I was ever seen wearing jeans like drake in my town. Oakland cats don’t get down like that.
May 18, 2009 at 2:25 pm
Wale is a certified sneakerhead.
May 18, 2009 at 2:25 pm
Gunther Deniro is a clown…
why would they show randoms wearing shoes when its more marketable if we celebs in’em…
keep thinkin like that & u’ll neva be i the position to get free kicks…lol
May 18, 2009 at 2:24 pm
Yo Bundlz good advice I will I just wonder sumtimes if these cats were regular folk would they be hustlin to get them new kicks or do they rock em cuz it’s easy
May 18, 2009 at 2:22 pm
as usual (not a sneakerhead), really proves he is a loser…lol
shadow how do u classify a hypebeast, when all of these rappers were wearin this since b4 they started rappin’…lol play’d urself with that one…
but kid cudi proves once again to hav no sense of style…
& yeah drake is wearin the same thing b/c they’re from the same show…
May 18, 2009 at 2:16 pm
Every time I see Kid CuDi I like Jordans less and less… But man, ya’ll see Wale with the 1\2 Cents dumb-early? I don’t even like the silver ones like that but he’s definitely winning this round. I, personally think I can rock the Aquas (which I do have, lol) better than Drake but that remains to be seen…
May 18, 2009 at 2:16 pm
Seeing KanYe in the J’s confirms the point i was posing to myself, abt the longevity of the ‘AirYeezy’ the brand and/or vs. Jordans! It’s clear that, (i was right all along) rocking the Jordons, be it by Mr Wesssssssssss himself, or you or me, expresses your appreciation and love for an authentic classy influence… “were are you Yeezy?
May 18, 2009 at 2:15 pm
@Gunther Deniro Work Hard Live Well. Make them want to give you free shoes.
May 18, 2009 at 2:14 pm
kanye and his aquas…
and wale is always doing it big…. silver 1/2 cents are DOPE!
May 18, 2009 at 2:14 pm
@Matt Halfhill - you’re right he is slaying em with those, I’m surprised I didn’t notice.
May 18, 2009 at 2:14 pm
I’m tired a seein these wack celebrities wearin shoes they get for free while I gotta pay hard earned cash plus wait in line .it’s a slap in the face.I’d rather y’all show real sneakerheads rockin the kicks
May 18, 2009 at 2:13 pm
I like em all. Nothing wrong about em. LOL @ Kanye shorts that come up to his knee, that’s the big bro though.
May 18, 2009 at 2:13 pm
wow, not a single comment about Wale’s Silver 1/2 Cents…
May 18, 2009 at 2:10 pm
cudi u bastard!!!
May 18, 2009 at 2:06 pm
and yeah chi city those jeans do look like he rocked them with the yeezys a week or two back. idk might be a dif. pair idk though.
May 18, 2009 at 2:04 pm
Kid Cudi has the dope Toro Bravo’s on. Not Feelign the Skinny Jeans at ALL!. Drake/West Killing The Aqua’s. Yeezy’s are also a good look.
May 18, 2009 at 2:02 pm
I swear they showed drake b4 and he was wearin tha same thing idk tho i might be tweakin
May 18, 2009 at 2:01 pm
all i see is nothing but a bunch of hypebeast!
May 18, 2009 at 1:59 pm
all the shoes are decent…but drakes jeans could use a wash and an iron…oh they were made like that?!(rich idiots)
May 18, 2009 at 1:54 pm
1st……….time commenting hahaha
