Allen Iverson Talking about Sneakers Is Oddly Mesmerizing

Published:
I’m pretty sure you could put a video of Allen Iverson talking about botany in front of me and I’d watch it. He’s so captivating, no matter the subject. Of course it helps when the inspiration behind the great sneaker of all-time – The Question (Blue Toe) – is talking about his own product… and then buys it.
Best part of the video? When Iverson seems to almost get choked up talking about how his mom didn’t pay the electric bill so she could buy him a pair of Jordans. No one keeps it more real. No one.
