Vinicius Jr. Goes Sneaker Shopping With Complex

Real Madrid’s Vini Jr. is the latest superstar footballer to go Sneaker Shopping with Complex’s Joe La Puma, heading to Flight Club in Los Angeles to spend some dollars on some new footwear.

Joining a prestigious list of superstar footballers to pick up some new kicks while shooting the proverbial with host, Joe La Puma, Vinicius Junior recently went Sneaker Shopping with Complex. He headed to L.A., following in the footsteps of one of his idols, Neymar, and he talked about signing to Nike, meeting Drake, and his love for Louis Vuitton x Nike Air Force 1s before making his selections from the vast collection of sneakers on display.

In the past, footballers have been featured on the show and have racked up some impressive tallies in terms of bills and new footwear, but Vini was far more conservative then most, paling next to Neymar’s staggering $18,000 in the series, spent in the summer of 2017. Looking around, Vini felt there was not much on offer that he didn’t already own, and so he settled for a rare pair of Fragment Design x Travis Scott x Air Jordan 1 for $4,730. We say rare, but Vini stated that he already owned a pair…just not in his size! Consider that now remedied.
