On the latest episode of Complex's Sneaker Shopping, host Joe La Puma chops it up with Fall Out Boy's Pete Wentz at Stadium Goods.

Wentz touches on topics including the importance of Vans on the West Coast and skate culture, how Jay Z originally got the band into Bape, his favorite Yeezys, and more. At one point, the Fall Out Boy bassist even compares some of the sneakers he buys to his collection to fine art. 

"I think the collaborations are really cool. To me, shoes are kind of like art, like the art on your wall," says Wentz. "My taste is going to be different than somebody else's taste and you gotta look at it everyday when you wake up, and I think it's the same with shoes. There's a lot of shoes that I love, but they just look really weird on my feet for some reason." He even specifically mentions how he loves the KAWS x Nike Air Force 1 despite not being able to pull them off himself.
