Fieri was taken to Flight Club instead of Flavortown.

Guy Fieri isn't exactly the first person that comes to mind when you think of a sneakerhead but regardless, the Food Network chef sure loves his kicks. Thanks to that passion for footwear, Fieri found himself on the latest episode of Complex: Sneaker Shopping today where he hit up Flight Club in Miami to buy some fresh new sneakers.

Throughout the episode, Fieri talks about NBA players Steph Curry and Kevin Durant. Both players have sent signed shoes to Fieri's kids, which the chef says he appreciates a lot. From there, the sheriff of Flavortown explains how these days, he is typically wearing Adidas shoes because they fit him the best. As a chef, Fieri said he is on his feet a lot and that Boost is the best comfort he can get.

Fieri also got to do a deep dive on the Dave's Quality Meat Air Max 90 which showcases the different stages of cooking bacon. The Diners, Drive-Ins, And Dives host explained that he appreciates the story-telling in these types of collaborations.

Finally, Fieri finished off the show by purchasing over $2000 worth of sneakers. He picked up two pairs of Bape Adidas UltraBoosts, some Zebra YEEZY BOOST 350 V2's and a pair of Air Max 95's.
