Help us kick off March with the first celebrity sneaker recap of the month.
One of the trends we're noticing more and more when making these posts is the increase in women who like to show off their sneakers. There's obviously a strong female presence in the sneaker game, but that wasn't always reflected in celeb watch. Now, with women like Alicia Keys, Rita Ora and Solange working directly with brands, and athletes like Skylar Diggins being strongly supported by athletic companies, the number of female 'influencers' seems to grow by the day. Do you think there are any female celebrities among the most influential in sneakers?
The Air Jordan 6 dethroned Air Jordans 3 and 5 for Celebrity Sneaker of the Week. It seems like everybody was able to get their hands on one of the 'Infrared' colorways that dropped during All-Star Weekend, and with the model celebrating its 23rd Anniversary, we can expect it to win sneaker of the week a few more times throughout the year.
Usher rocks both of his 1-of-1s, Chris Paul in unreleased Air Jordan 2s, Fat Joe laces up 'Linens' and much more in this week's Celebrity Sole Watch.
With 'Platinum' Yeezy 2s and 'Taxi' 12s, Kevin Hart earned your vote for 2.22. Sole Celebrity of the Week. Was his kick game good enough to warrant a repeat? Cast a vote for this week's top celeb below.
