Damian Lillard will be releasing a new sneaker soon that is a collaboration between Adidas and A Bathing Ape.

While at the Adidas headquarters in Portland, Oregon recently, Dame D.O.L.L.A. revealed to GQ that it was Lil Wayne who inspired his new shoe as his fondest memories of Bape are when Weezy used to wear the clothing line back in 2005 – 2006 (BET Awards, “Hustler Musik” music video, Vibe magazine cover, etc).

You can read exactly what Damian said about Tunechi influencing his new sneakers after the jump below. If you are interested in copping Lillard‘s Adidas Dame 4 x A Bathing Ape shoe, you will only be able to do so for $150.00 at Adidas’ 747 Warehouse pop-up shop in Los Angeles, California on February 16th as an online release has not yet been announced!

While out in Portland a few days ago for the “Drake vs. Lil Wayne” tour, Weezy F Baby met and took photos with a couple of his fans. One of these people was a guy named Shane Bugbee and he had an interesting story about meeting Wayne that you can read below:

Met lil Wayne today, harassed him by going for his gold chain, he yelped “nigga is you crazy” his body guard yelled don’t do that and then Wayne proceeded to sit with me in the lobby of the hotel and talk about the stack of books I had including “what witches do”.
