In particular, artists and sneakerheads have a special relationship. In fact, nearly every best-selling sneaker on the market involved someone from the hip-hop world either backing it or designing it.

2. Adidas Superstars
We can’t have a list of iconic sneakers without mentioning the Adidas Superstar, the flagship sneaker of Run DMC.
The collaboration between Adidas and Run DMC was historically one of the first times a fashion brand and musicians teamed up.
Superstars remain a staple of sneaker fashion even in today’s age due to their timeless appeal, classic ‘Adidas’ look, and comfort.
If a casual sneaker is what you want, it’s hard to find one better than the Superstar.

3. Puma Suede
Originally a sports shoe (NBA star Walt Frazier famously endorsed them in 1973), the hip-hop world soon took notice – primarily for suede’s durability and flexibility (they were a favorite of breakdancers due to this).
Puma Suede’s feature fine leather for a classy look while being perfect for sports, exercise, and going to dinner with friends.

4. Ewing 33 Hi
If high-top sneakers are more your thing, the Ewing 33 Hi is the hip-hop sneaker for you.
The group Naughty By Nature sports these stellar high-tops, and they just partnered with Death Row Records (a leading hip-hop label) in 2019.
Similar to a lightweight combat boot, these ‘sneakerboots’ provide a tough, beefy look.
PATRICK EWING Athletics 33 HI x Orion Hybrid Red/Black/White 1BM00640-602
- The flagship Ewing Athletics shoe, the 33 HI is an exact retro of the 1990 original, and features a classic reversible ankle strap that can be worn on the front or back of the shoe, and a full length rubber cupsole along with a synthetic upper.

6. Nike Air Jordan III
Air Jordans are closely associated with hip-hop in general, but the Air Jordan III is the cream of the crop.
Spike Lee even reprised his role as Mars Blackmon (She’s Gotta Have It) for the commercials.
It was also a complete rethink of basketball sneakers in general, with Nike taking visual inspiration from elephants, of all things.
Air Jordan III’s have a dope silhouette and can work both off and on the court.

7. Converse Chuck Taylor All-Stars
While Nike and Adidas dominated the East Coast, Converse Chuck Taylor All-Stars were the quintessential sneaker in California.
In fact, N.W.A. regularly wore Converse Chuck Taylor All-Stars on stage and in their music videos. Ice Cube and Snoop Dogg are also big fans of this classic sneaker.
Chuck Taylor All-Stars can work for virtually any occasion, and they’re great for protecting your feet (which is why weightlifters prefer to wear Converse).

8. Nike Dunks
It’s since been rebranded as a skate shoe, but no one can argue the impact that Nike Dunks had on the scene.
Grandmaster Flash famously wore a pair on the cover art for his ‘Ba-Dop-Boom-Bang’ album, and Dunks helped popularize sneaker collecting amongst hip-hop fans.
They’re also sweet-looking kicks that work for basketball, performing on stage, skating, and going out on the town.

12. Nike Air Max2 CB ‘94
The signature sneaker of Sir Charles Barkley, the Nike Air Max2 CB ‘94, has a look that can only be described as ‘abrasive.’ In fact, its design was inspired by a straight jacket, believe it or not.
Yet, it still manages to be a super-cool sneaker that oozes style and attitude.

14. Adidas Attitude
Knicks’ basketball coach Patrick Ewing is to thank for this coveted hi-top sneaker from Adidas, the Attitude.
The Adidas Attitude in white, orange and blue (the Knicks colors) took over New York in 1986 – thanks largely to the fact that Ewing wore them on the court.
These leather high-top sneakers are visually stunning and can round out any outfit.
15. Puma Clyde
The Puma Clyde brings us back to NBA star Walt ‘Clyde’ Frazier, as these are his signature kicks – released in 1973.
Puma Clyde’s were staples of the old-school hip-hop scene of the 70s and 80s, but they still look as cool as ever today – a testament to their timeless appeal.
