Behind Fabolous’ stoic demeanor is an individual who does what he can to spread some of his fortune to others. Teaming up with New York sports superstars Robinson Cano of the Yankees and Ahmad Bradshaw of the Giants, Fabolous started the 3 Kings Coat Drive, which aims to bring warmth – literally – to those who need it. Fabolous attended the Coat Drive events, which were held in various Dr. Jays locations in New York City, donating some pieces from his own collection, and arrived in style; at the Fulton St. location in Brooklyn, he wore the Air Jordan Spiz’ike in the Knicks Orange colorway, and at both the Harlem and Fordham Rd. locations, he wore the Black Flip IIIs. Fabolous emerged as the Celebrity Feet mainstay of the year thanks to his consistent and eclectic display of Air Jordans, and although we’ve seen Fab in Black Flips, the Orange Spiz’ikes is definitely a first! Check out Fabolous after the jump and stick with Sneaker News for more Celebrity Feet updates.
