Rockets’ PJ Tucker is bringing more than 60 pairs of shoes to the NBA’s Orlando bubble

As a sneakerhead, packing for a trip can be a daunting task. Even if it’s just a simple weekend trip.

There are always so many pairs of shoes to choose from and so little space to store them in. There are also so many moments on the trip to pack for — the car ride, the flight, the airport walk, the beach day, the night at the restaurant. All of that.

Sneakerheads are focused on showing off the heat, so getting it right is important. Or else, that’s a few days of looking at yourself in a mirror and muttering “you can do better” to yourself over and over again.

That’s why it makes total sense that Rockets forward PJ Tucker packed over 60 pairs of shoes for his trip to the NBA’s Orlando bubble. And he’ll reportedly buy more pairs off of eBay while he’s there.

This is the right move, y’all. Trust me.

Alright, sure. I get it. On the surface, it seems like a lot. To the normal, non-sneakerhead 60 pairs of shoes probably feels like waaaaay too much.

But here’s the thing. Remember when I said it feels impossible to pack shoes for a simple three day trip? Tucker is going to be at Disney World for THREE MONTHS. Imagine having to pack outfits three months of outfits. It’s hard!

And, honestly? This was probably a struggle for Tucker. He’s got 60 pairs of shoes packed away and that sounds like a lot. But let’s not forget he had to choose them from the thousands he already has.

Listen, man. Let the sneaker king cook. He knows what he’s doing.
