Styles P Loses It Over His Fresh Pair Of Custom Sneakers Inspired By His Rap Career As The Ghost

In episode seven of FRESH PAIR -- the new sneaker interview show from Uproxx -- Styles P reacts for the first time to a pair of custom sneakers, newly created for him by hip-hop icon Just Blaze and sneaker customizer-to-the-stars, Katty Customs. The sneakers celebrate Styles' career as The Ghost, being part of The Lox, his art, and his journey into new business ventures -- all through the creativity of the shoe design.

The ghosts, gangster and gentleman, juice condensation, and a stash pocket -- it's all here! In Styles P's own words: "These look more than custom made, they look factory. Like you were at the factory."
