Chase N. Cashe is a man of many interests. The producer/rapper is big on healthy living, he’s an avid hooper and he has a jersey collection that’s on another level. He also knows a lot about shoes. A whole lot. While making records for the likes of Drake (“Look What You’ve Done”) and Troy Ave (“Your Style” Remix) pay the bills better than blogging, he could definitely write history lessons on some of the best basketball and running shoes to release in the past two decades. We met in the middle and had him share his current sneaker rotation. See what’s getting heavy wear from Chase in the latest My 5.
Nike Air Max Plus
Chase N. Cashe: “That shoe is the shoe that made me pay attention to running shoes and designs outside of the Air Max 95. I remember my cousin had the original blue joints and I couldn’t get them. I got the orange ones and he was so sick. People were always complimenting me on them, even people who weren’t into sneakers. Even now they still do. I went to Madison Square Garden one night and ran into a guy from Europe who had them on too. His looked so much better than mine. That design, that sole, it’s like everything they copied when they started making the Griffey Air Max 360s and all that.”
