Jerry Seinfeld has heat, this much is apparent. Well documented and always appreciated, the authentic and unforced style choices of the comedian/sitcom star have made him one of the most liked figures in the sneaker culture with no need for an IG account.
Revered writer and Seinfeld fan Gary Warnett makes a strong case for Jerry as the most important celeb in sneaker culture in a new piece for Complex, citing Seinfeld’s opposite approach to today’s trend hopping and promo rooted ‘influencing.’ Simply put, Jerry wears what he likes.
Among the many interesting parts of the piece, Warnett dives into detail about Jerry’s shoe source during his Seinfeld days, Tracy Gray. Gray served as the seeder for a variety of ’90s sitcoms, lacing everyone from Jerry to Tim Taylor in Nikes of the signature and oddity variety.
