Nike air mags. Yep hes rich as fuck

[–]pacoiam 85 points86 points ago

he wore them to a baseball game! Brian Wilson!

[–]WhatHaveWeHur 14 points15 points ago

He's got 2 different pair? That bastard!

[–]pacoiam 19 points20 points ago

I know I wanted to buy them but the auction price was like $5,000 haha! maybe I'll have better luck in 2015!

[–]penetrode 1 point2 points ago

Don't worry... I got chu

[–]buffaleezy 1 point2 points ago

One pair he keeps on ice.

[–]Uhmm_yes 24 points25 points ago

I got myself a pair as well. I'm not rich, I just saved a lot of money for it. Proof, left top corner

[–]deltarob 24 points25 points ago

Sneakerheads always confused me until I realise people collect literally anything

[–]this-username 3 points4 points ago

Eh, I saw mine as a useable investment. After a while I narrowed my collection down to my favorite 5 pairs. I probably spent $500- 600 total on them and kept em in great condition for 3-4 years. Sold em a few months ago for $850 total, so I got to wear them in that time and made a nice profit.

[–]mau5aboutthehau5 4 points5 points ago

Now that is a shoe collection. Nice work

[–]DiegoBanana 3 points4 points ago

Nice little collection you have! Loving the LV Dons!

[–]WomensBlowsMe 1 point2 points ago

I see you also have two pairs of nike air yeezys?

[–]Uhmm_yes 2 points3 points ago

Indeed. The Nike Air Yeezy in Black/Pink and the Nike Air Yeezy 2 in Grey/Red.

[–]Whatdidyoueggspect 1 point2 points ago

Wow, nice. Of all those I have... only the Piet Mondrian dunks. But seeing as how almost every shoe I own is Nike SB I guess it makes sense.

[–]applebuttaz 0 points1 point ago

Let me ask you a question...where the hell do people get their air yeezy's and what were the prices when they dropped?

[–]corbinr23 0 points1 point ago

South Beach's? Those are my favorite of all time

[–]bgbritt1015 0 points1 point ago

You really fucking love shoes!

[–]Lub3rs 6 points7 points ago

[–]Billthebutchr 5 points6 points ago

K.Ds line at the end ruined the commercial.

[–]chewp911 3 points4 points ago

Billthebutchr's "@" in the post ruined his comment.

[–]thejayway 1 point2 points ago

LONE PINE!

[–]DeltaShield 5 points6 points ago

Fuck yeah - Nike Mags !

[–]bambisaurs 1 point2 points ago

I thought they were the Marty McFly nikes. But still base point rich as fuck.

[–]SlaterHater 6 points7 points ago

It's probably because he is you know a professional athlete

[–]E-Step 0 points1 point ago

So he'll be bankrupt within five years?

[–]jonbones 0 points1 point ago

i said, 'cot DAMN'

[–]alwaysdoit 1 point2 points ago

Seriously. Time-travel ain't cheap.

[–]HalfBlackKid 0 points1 point ago

[–]ilovemtdew 0 points1 point ago

haha 1st thing I noticed too, then I realized it was Brian Wilson. Which made it even better since he is my favorite athlete at the moment.

[–]jselvey 0 points1 point ago

I don't know much about shoes (all I wear are Vans). So why are these so expensive?

[–]thebestmike 0 points1 point ago

Those shoes are fucking ugly

[–]gatinas 272 points273 points ago

um. those are back to the future Nike's. This guy is a badass.

i support this man's style.

[–]hookeslaw 70 points71 points ago

He was yelling "We were promised hover-boards!"

[–]yarmulke 1 point2 points ago

You'd think he'd be yelling "BLACK OPS!"

[–]jbg89 29 points30 points ago

It's the San Francisco Giants baseball pitch Brian Wilson.

[–]mysterion12 15 points16 points ago

[–]dego_frank 17 points18 points ago

Wtf is a "baseball pitch?" He's the Giants closer.

Does your friend work for the Giants? This was posted on their account today...

[–]ferminriii 6 points7 points ago

Power laces alright!

[–]JiovanniTheGREAT 11 points12 points ago

*Marty McFlys

[–]BobLeBuilDerp 30 points31 points ago

Nike Air Mag.

[–]jnatale 2 points3 points ago

with power laces.

[–]chewp911 2 points3 points ago

Not yet.

[–]MrAgoo 2 points3 points ago

I remember him wearing those in the dugout the first day they came out.

[–]isofat 0 points1 point ago

He probably got them when Michael Fox and Nike were auctioning them off to raise funds for Parkinson's.

[–]Mever815 1 point2 points ago

This mans a "Millionaire" FTFY

[–]DrJudgmental 0 points1 point ago

I think he's also wearing a Killer Jeff hat.

[–]ecancil 1 point2 points ago

They were incredibly expensive

[–]jwolfer 33 points34 points ago

Of course he has those shoes.

[–]FreshlySquozen 2 points3 points ago

Self-fulfilling prophecy?

[–]OChunks 46 points47 points ago

the shoes he has on are literally worth thousands of dollars..lol

[–]Am_no_longer_lurking 4 points5 points ago

Honest question here, not trying to sound like an idiot. What makes these particular shoes so valuable? I'm aware that they cost several thousand dollars, but why? Are they made better, are they a particular brand...I really have no idea. I appreciate anything you could tell me. thanks in advance, and have a great day.

[–]TrigunReaper 21 points22 points ago

They are expensive because they were auctioned off to help with Michael J. Fox foundation for Parkinsons. They only made a few pairs.

[–]chewp911 11 points12 points ago

On top of the auction, they are extremely limited releases (as mentioned) of the Nike model shoes from Back To The Future. They don't autolace (yet) but they do light up and look the same. So not only are they a limited charity release, but they are a movie edition of an iconic shoe, so it has lots of different appeal. 1500 pairs I think total.

[–]Am_no_longer_lurking 3 points4 points ago

Is that so? Thanks, it makes a bit of sense if that's how it is. Best of luck in life, bro.

[–]queuequeuemoar 2 points3 points ago

It's because they are from the movie Back to the Future. They also light up. That's pretty much it.

[–]zaphod_85 2 points3 points ago

rarity + nostalgia = $$$$

[–][deleted] ago

[–]mcmonky[S] 129 points130 points ago

This is San Francisco Giants relief pitcher Brian Wilson. Known as a closer, the slogan "Fear The Beard" was associated with him during the 2010 season and World Series.

[–]tumbleweed1993sf 46 points47 points ago

I thought this was /r/sfgiants and was confused why you were telling this to us.

[–]zaphod_85 6 points7 points ago

I thought I was on /r/baseball up until I read this. I was starting to wonder where everyone's flair had gone.

[–]bigangry 2 points3 points ago

I was confused that this was not Oklahoma City Thunder 6th man James Harden, but now I am not.

[–]ikilledyourcat 0 points1 point ago

x-post to /r/sneakers before i do and steal your karma!

[–]ak_ 0 points1 point ago

Thanks for that. I was wondering what i was missing.

[–]qrtr_inch_seam 56 points57 points ago

I'm a Dodger fan living in the Bay Area and I actually respect this guy a great deal. He's wacky, and I think he is very, very bright, plus he does good charity work. He's been in the announcing booth during his rehab, and I think he is trying to position himself for a post-player career in broadcasting, and he'd be quite good and funny as hell. Lord knows if Joe Buck, who is dumb as a post can get a job in the booth, then this guy deserves a gig with a mic.

[–]dougersb18 33 points34 points ago

I'm a Dodgers fan from the CenValley (can be even worse than the bay area) and I can't get enough of this guy. I really think he's the funniest person in baseball, and that includes the Mariners. Plus, the man's wearing a fanny pack...takes guts.

[–]DevDawgg 21 points22 points ago

I dunno, man. The Mariners are a pretty good joke.

[–]Megadeth619 6 points7 points ago

You should check out the Astros comedy. It's borderline genius with how funny it is.

[–]DevDawgg 3 points4 points ago

Totally puts the Cubs' to shame.

[–]deltarob 0 points1 point ago

hey! we're not sucking too badly currently

[–]corgan_burger 6 points7 points ago

You leave the M's alone, dick hole. You're lucky I don't tell Gaylord Perry what you said.

[–]jackrabt 2 points3 points ago

I saw him on a late show once where he dressed as a grizzled old sailor with his beard gray and a pipe.

For apparently no reason.

Then he sits down on the couch and removes his hat to reveal a smaller hat underneath.

The guy is ridiculously funny.

[–]CyberneticDickslap 2 points3 points ago

Footnote: Joe Buck has a job simply because of his daddy's own broadcasting career.

[–]SwissArmyDruid 3 points4 points ago

God, Joe Buck. Why, Joe Buck? Kennymooseandgoose has more personality than him. A block of cheese has more personality than him!

[–]Sleepermon 2 points3 points ago

I'm a Giants fan and I support this message. Even though it's an opinion of a Dodger's fan. :) P.S. Screw Joe Buck.

[–]WhatHaveWeHur 3 points4 points ago

Really? I find him to be obnoxious, he strikes me as one of those guys that tries way too hard to be funny. Plus, a lot of people seem to think he's the best closer in the game... when he's healthy he's good, but not THAT good.

Then again, maybe I'm just jealous of his shoes.

[–]nojusticenpeace -1 points0 points ago

As a human being from California, SF doesn't respect you... not one bit

[–]Joevual 0 points1 point ago

Brian Wilson has worlds of wit and charisma. He'd be great as a broadcaster.

[–]MackerLad93 11 points12 points ago

Man he looks like Scroobius Pip, with the trucker hat/beard combo!

see

[–]Derpington_Fosworth 3 points4 points ago

He's like Pip in hulk mode, I was very confuse at first.

[–]snakeybasher 2 points3 points ago

Brian Wilson and Scroobius Pip should be best friends.

[–]VI_Zexion_VI 1 point2 points ago

More like if Pip's beard started to try and eat his neck.

[–]Put_It_On_Her_Tab 26 points27 points ago

This is one of those 'zero fucks given' kinda guys.

[–]upitchrosin 18 points19 points ago

[–]aceoftrachs 4 points5 points ago

He's way funnier than he should be.

[–]te_ogre 7 points8 points ago

I've watched his interviews before but it wasn't until just now that I realized that his comedy style is very similar to zach galifianakis.

[–]smithincanton 1 point2 points ago

Thanks, I just almost died choking on my own spit laughing.

[–]Counterkulture 4 points5 points ago

Yeah, you can tell he really doesn't give a fuck if people look at or pay attention to him or not. Nothing has been more obvious.

So humble.

[–]Dundy 22 points23 points ago

GOT HEEM!

[–]STiSausage 7 points8 points ago

Omg the Nike shoes from back to the future!

[–]NotSeriousAtAll 6 points7 points ago

Am i the only guy here who was checking out the sweet scooter?

[–]lost_hubcap 14 points15 points ago

SO FUCKING ALPHA

[–]Wanrenmi 11 points12 points ago

Brian Fucking Wilson, an American we can be proud of! (Go Giants btw!)

[–]Dingle_Fairy 2 points3 points ago

[–]dnbjarhead -1 points0 points ago

If he wasn't already my favorite closer ever this would solidify that

[–]tyvanius 4 points5 points ago

I've never seen an athlete look as metal as this guy. Brian Wilson is the reason I'm a Giants fan (especially now that Ichiro left my team. The Mariners have nothing left).

[–]Baldish 14 points15 points ago

If he wasn't an athlete, there would be a lot more hipster comments. Guess people fear the beard too much to say that

[–]wysiwyg23 1 point2 points ago

He fits in well in San Fran.

[–]miracle_man 14 points15 points ago

You NEVER SAY SAN FRAN.

[–]mylifeforshire 6 points7 points ago

This man speaks the truth. No one says "San Fran" except for people who are not from San Francisco.

[–]JTCunning 4 points5 points ago

Or how about the teenie bopper's "FRISCOOOOOOO!"

[–]matthewstringer 4 points5 points ago

It sounds like the name for an awful font.

[–]anthrocide 4 points5 points ago

That dude is living life right.

[–]magicrhinos 7 points8 points ago

I spotted him last year walking past Safeway towards the ballpark and demanded a high five. He has very dense palms.

[–]brash 9 points10 points ago

Man, Brian Wilson is the shit, he's so awesome. He's really living the dream; just doing something he's great at, making tons of money, and being as weird and wicked as he wants to be.

[–]thegouch 8 points9 points ago

What every hipster wishes they looked like

[–]Koopslovestogame 3 points4 points ago

cool! power laces!!!!

[–]hendeeze 2 points3 points ago

A fanny pack that matches his shirt.

[–]DonFalcon 3 points4 points ago

I hope he doesn't fall off that scooter. The Giants don't have the best luck with players and motorcycles. I recall Jeff Kent injuring himself washing his.

[–]NastyKnate 2 points3 points ago

ah yes, san francisco

[–]sirmitchellot 2 points3 points ago

Seriously, though: Anyone know what sort of scooter that is?

[–]bravestdawg 2 points3 points ago

Pretty sure it's a Goped electric scooter. One of These

[–]debon_snow 2 points3 points ago

Thoughts in order 1. Must be more to this picture than hipster style 2. Holy buckets I recognize those shoes, they're like 20k 3. Why does this homeless man have such nice shoes and where did he commandeer a scooter!? 4. Ah. I am not a clever man.

[–]remjob61 2 points3 points ago

Fuck with Brian Wilson, fuck with the god of all beards.

[–]JMCrown 2 points3 points ago

Got' damn, he's hot!!

[–]ElvinFrish 2 points3 points ago

trendiest fucking guy i've ever seen

[–]Psychotic_Puffin 2 points3 points ago

That bastard has a pair of the McFly's. I'm going BacktotheFuture

[–]Billthebutchr 3 points4 points ago

Can't believe he's rockin the McFlys. Jelly.

[–]RockintheShockin 2 points3 points ago

I'm so happy that there's always the off chance I can run into him around Baton Rouge.

[–]ButtFuckSlutsGoNuts 1 point2 points ago

Shouldn't he be lyin' in bed?

[–]klutzr 2 points3 points ago

GOT HEEEM

[–]PresidentGSO 1 point2 points ago

I've never been a fan of him. It's like he's going out of his way to be all weird and wacky, just to earn extra attention. He has that whole "look at me! Look at me!" attitude that I can't stand. He just seems so fake and forced.

[–]WhoTookPlasticJesus 18 points19 points ago

I thought this at first, but I've come to realize that it's more holy shit, I can totally get away with this. So he does. Like when he had the gimp casually walk out in the background during a Skype interview with ESPN.

[–]PresidentGSO 4 points5 points ago

Now that is actually pretty funny.

It looks like he is a giant, and there's a guy standing on his seat, holding on to his belt, and leaning to his right side to see where they are going.

[–]PussyMuffin 1 point2 points ago

As a San Franciscan, I'm not sure how I feel about that. I'm leaning towards "not great"
