Your top sneaker of all time?
Nike Cortez. They're comfortable. And cheap too. All the gangsters wear Cortez so if you have them and a bald head and baggy trousers all the cops are gonna think you are a gang member, no matter what. I still wear them though cause they are firme shoes. They've been around for a long time.

A lot of gang members are wearing running shoes and hi-tops these days?
They do. Like Nike Air Max. All the running shoes are real popular. I just bought a pair of Nike Zoom Flights. They look like space shoes. They have a see-through-sole. I like sporty shoes. Something I can look good in. So I can look clean cut. Some wear Adidas and Guess but I prefer Nike and Fila.





Humpty staples his trousers for neatness


What do you wear with your sneakers?
Usually a white t-shirt and baggy Ben Davies. I wear them long so you can only see the tip of my shoe. But you know how some guys get their pants all messed up, dragging them in the dirt? I don't want my pants all dirty and torn up. That's why I staple the hem to the sole of my shoe.





Humpty's son, Manuel jr, makes it difficult to keep those sneakers clean.



Do you clean your shoes every day?
Yeah, I keep them clean with soap and a toothbrush. I have a son now, Manuel jr. He's seven weeks and I gotta look out so he doesn't throw up all over my shoes. That stuff is hard to clean off! When he gets a little older I'll buy him some good-ass Nikes.
