Cleveland native and “Fat Raps” rhymer Chip Tha Ripper<\/strong> has been tearing up tracks for a minute now. He?s also been stacking up boxes. With an affinity for Air Jordans (strictly black? we?ll get to that) and a taste for designer sneakers, Chip?s rotation is top notch. While his new mixtape Tell Ya Friends<\/em> is currently making waves on the web, we asked Chip to tell us what kicks he?s rocking right now. Check out Chip’s “My 5<\/a>” to see why he favors black sneakers and how he scored a free pair of Kanye’s kicks from Kid Cudi.<\/p>\n Chip Tha Ripper:<\/strong> “I?m rocking these now with Dior jeans and a black Louis Vuitton hoody. I got these in 2010 but never really wore them. The “Aquas”<\/a> are dope too. Those would?ve been number six. I actually got those for my son. Those were his first shoes.”<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Chip Tha Ripper:<\/strong> “I was over at Cudi?s crib and he was showing me stuff in his closet. He had a pair of them-brand new, never worn. I was like, ‘Man, I?ve been trying to find those.’ I tried to offer him money and he was like, ‘Just take them. I won?t wear them.’ I?m like, ‘Damn, cool!’ I had spent like a month looking for them. You can never find those things. Those are some of the coldest shoes right there.”<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Chip Tha Ripper:<\/strong> Fresh. Those are my joints right there-one of my favorites. I didn?t have the originals. I?m glad they?re doing this retro stuff because I would?ve missed out on a lot. Coming up as a little guy, we couldn?t afford that stuff.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Chip Tha Ripper:<\/strong> I don?t really want to put them on a pedestal because, to me, they ain?t no different than my Jordans. You can wear those with anything. Sometimes, I just wear all black like Nino Brown.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Chip Tha Ripper:<\/strong> When these came out the first time I didn?t get them. When they came back out, I was all over it. The pair I have is pretty fresh. If they do anything different to a re-retro, I might grab them. I really only wear dark shoes so I gave the ?Orlandos? away to my homeboy. All my Jordans are dark. The only white pairs I have are the ?Cardinals? and the ?True Blues?. I only wear dark clothes so white shoes look like socks to me.<\/p>\n Follow Chip on Twitter<\/a> and download Tell Ya Friends<\/em> here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" What is your favorite pair from Chip Tha Ripper’s 5?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2415,"featured_media":200341,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1207912],"tags":[1225742],"cultivate_rss":[],"class_list":{"2":"type-post"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nAir Jordan 8 ?Playoffs?<\/h2>\n
