Versace

The radio broadcaster flexes his wide knowledge of cool sneaks to cop. Just take a look at his 2Chainz x Versace Chain Reaction collab pair that features the luxury house's signature greca details, chain-link sole, and braille lettering. These familiar deets were coupled with the American rapper's athleisure take on the shoe that boasts of an embossed croc neoprene collar with dual zip closure. Since its release in early 2019, this pair has already sold out—lucky Tulfo for securing a pair.
