You can hardly find any athlete without a profound obsession with shoes. That has valid reasons, as comfortable shoes allow them to perform their sport at a better and faster pace. Also, it forms a fundamental part of their fashion statement, which the fans widely follow.
When it comes to WWE, the top dog of the roster, Roman Reigns is no exception to that norm. The tribal chief who enters the arena, keeping his head high, doesn’t seem to forget about his feet at all. His wide variety of highly envied sneaker collections surely speaks of that.
Roman Reigns names Nike Jordon sneakers as one of his essential picks
Roman Reigns has been simply unstoppable with his current run as the undisputed WWE Universal Champion. His incredible moves and maneuvers in the ring earned him millions of die-hard fans. But have you ever wondered how Reigns can perform the strongest Superman punches so seamlessly? Well, it’s because his magic skill perfectly teams up with his favorite pair of Jordon sneakers and does wonders.
While he revealed his obsession with Jordon’s shoes several times before, his recent interaction made it even more evident than ever. During a recent interview with menshealth.com, The 37-year-old heavyweight was asked to name the top six things as his most necessary picks. Mentioning Nike Air Jordon 1 Retro High boots as one of them, the sneakerhead noted, ‘I have so many pairs. They’re definitely my go-to.’
Previously the six-time world champion revealed that he has more than 75 pairs of these sneakers in his collection and still doesn’t seem to get over it.

However, beyond being a super-premium quality sport shoe, this particular brand’s boots have another significant connection with the champion.
Reigns has a special memory attached to Jordon’s boots
Reigns wore these Nike Jordon boots during one of the most emotional moments of his entire career, which took place back in 2019 when the Phoenix announced that he was in remission following his battle with leukemia.
Reflecting on that heartwarming moment and how his favorite pair of shoes contributed to it, The Powerhouse once stated, ‘I felt so much confidence and just so much gratitude. I think that was one of those situations where I was able to kind of come out of the Roman character and just be Joe, and that’s why you saw me the way I was. That’s why I was wearing Jordans. Just kind of a casual look, for the most part. For that moment, I kind of took that character armor off and exposed the real me and gave them a piece of me.’
However, The Tribal Chief is days away from defending or losing his title against the American Nightmare Cody Rhodes in a high-profile main event WrestleMania match this weekend and WWE Universe can’t keep calm to see him having the last laugh.
