Snkrs Day: Speaking of exclusives, can we expect a D.J. Augustin Jordan signature shoe in the near future?

D.J. Augustin: I’m hoping man. I mean, when Chris Paul first signed with Jordan Brand, he didn’t get anything right away. He’s been in the league for like 3 or 4 yrs, just recently signed for like 40 million dollars and now has his own shoe. Also, I think Carmelo just signed for a good amount and now has his own shoe. So, starting out, I know that I have to work hard and prove myself on the court. If i do that, in a couple of years I’ll hopefully have my own shoe.

Snkrs Day: Presently, who owns the best Jordan signature shoe: Chris Paul or Carmelo Anthony?

D.J. Augustin: I don’t know man. I really do like the Jordan CP3.II. It is really nice. It’s something about the Jordan Melo M5 though. I cannot see myself wearing them but they’re cool.

Snkrs Day: We followed you, and many other players, consistently through our Kicks On Court daily column this year. We spotted you in the Air Jordan 21, the Jumpman Team Pro, the Jordan Pure Pressure and the Jordan 6 Rings. Which one of the four was your favorite?

D.J. Augustin: I’d have to say the Jordan Pure Pressure because there so light on my feet. I’m a guard and I use my speed a lot, so the Pure Pressure is perfect for me and it feels pretty good. I like the Jordan True Flight as well. I didn’t wear them a lot, but they were real light too. I think certain shoes fit certain guys. I feel as if the Jordan 6 Rings are for forwards like my teammate Gerald Wallace. He’s with Jordan Brand too, and he likes those 6 Rings a lot. I’m really excited to see what they have for me next year though.

Snkrs Day: By the way, everybody in our office agreed that you owned one of the better colorways seen on the Jumpman Team Pro (Black/Grey-Orange).

D.J. Augustin: Yeah, I like the Pure Pressure though. I also had shoes that I didn’t even wear. I don’t know the names of this one pair I have, but I never wore them because I stuck with the Pure Pressure. I like to stick with a shoe that is comfortable to me. I really don’t like to change shoes every game. But I had a couple of nice shoes that aren’t even out yet. I might break them out this year at the beginning of the season.
