On the latest episode of Sneaker Shopping, the Golden State Warriors’ Draymond Green hits the east coast to visit Stadium Goods. The three-time NBA Champion connects with Joe La Puma to speak about an array of topics while sporting the Off-White™ x Nike Air Max 90. The conversation opens up with Green reminiscing about the Air Jordan 11 “Cool Grey” getting him into trouble during his days at Michigan State. Continuing the Jordan conversation, he also holds the Air Jordan 8 “Aqua” close to his heart as he donned the pair while receiving prom king honors, despite wearing a last-minute makeshift Jumpman T-shirt. The two recall more recent events such as Draymond debuting the Off-White™ x Nike Hyperdunk on-court and why the kicks are more appropriate for fashion rather than performance.

Take a look at the video for the entire conversation and let us know your thoughts on his pickups. In related news, you can dig into the reasoning behind DeMarcus Cousins’ decision to join PUMA.
