Update: Lil Wayne Confirms Collaboration With Supra Shoes
On the heels of releasing his own skateboarder-friendly clothing brand, Trukfit, Lil Wayne also hinted he was working on “a signature sneaker,” but kept details mysterious. When Vibe noted that the rapper has been spotted wearing a fair share of Supras, Weezy remarked, “Uh oh! Watch out!” – ostensibly giving it all away. Now, it’s official: Supra is indeed the brand developing the signature Lil Wayne skater shoe.
As has been the case with all recent sartorial developments in Wayne’s world, the rapper revealed the information in a tantalizing manner on another hip-hop web series, this time “Hip Hop POV.”
Besides confirming the deal with Supra, he dropped some other news. “Dr. Dre Beats, I’ve got my own Beats coming out soon. I get money,” he adds. Looks like expansion of the Weezy empire shows no sign of fatigue. “I fit in every situation and I want my clothing line to do the same,” he explains.
Earlier in the year, he broke news of the impending Trukfit clothing line through his own web series, Lil Wayne’s Sports Planet. Rolling Stone later attended the NYC unveiling of the brand.
