After appearing in Nike’s recent “Shoe Therapy” ad as Dr. Dana Sole, Emmy award-winning actor, writer, and producer Lena Waithe had an oppurtunity to catch up with Joe La Puma and talk sneakers on Complex’s “Sneaker Shopping.” Rocking a fresh pair of Sean Wotherspoon‘s Air Max 1/97, Waithe discusses her love for Jordans, stating that “When you’ve got Js on, you’re connected to someone who’s almost mythical.” Waithe also discusses Kanye West‘s footwear design ability (spoiler: she’s a fan), and how she’s not very fond of having pink on her sneakers before grabbing two new pairs. For all that and to see what shoes she bought, check out the latest episode of Sneaker Shopping below.
