Snkrs Day presents My 5, a new column detailing which sneakers artists, athletes, and industry personalities are wearing right now and why they’re wearing them. To kick off our My 5 column we caught up with Big Sean to find out his current rotation.<\/p>\n
“How many trends do you have to set before you’re considered great?” From the hash tag flow to the snapback craze, Big Sean’s been at the forefront and origin of both in the hip-hop community. Sneakers? No different. Sure, he’s picked up some high-end habits from his big bro Yeezy, but Sean’s been rocking a steady rotation of retro Jordans and sneaker heat when his peers were stuck on white on whites. Need proof? Reference “Getcha Some,” circa 2007. With his debut album Finally Famous<\/em> set to hit stores this summer, we find out what Big Sean’s rocking in preparation for his big release.<\/p>\n Big Sean:<\/strong> “Those are my favorite. Jordans just look good, (they’re) perfectly engineered. From the 3s, to the 4s, 5s, 6s?”<\/em><\/p>\n Air Jordan 3 Black\/Cement<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Big Sean:<\/strong> “I had the black and grey 8s and the white and reds ones, but I just love how the ‘Aquas’ are. I got those right when they dropped.”<\/em><\/p>\n Air Jordan 8 “Aqua”<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Big Sean:<\/strong> “Real fresh, plain, you know stunting on the low. Nobody knows what they are sometimes because they look like regular shoes but really they’re $900.”<\/em><\/p>\n Balanciega Sneakers<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Big Sean:<\/strong> “I love performing in those just because they’re good performance shoes. Jordans are easy to move around in. I go crazy when I perform so I can’t be f*cking my ankle up or nothing like that.”<\/em><\/p>\n Air Jordan 7 “Raptor”<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Big Sean:<\/strong> “They have a f*cking wing on em! Fresh. They’re some real Gs over there (at adidas).”<\/em><\/p>\n adidas Originals JS Wings<\/p>\n Big Sean’s singles “I Do It”<\/a> and “What Goes Around” are both available now on iTunes<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" He does it.
