Ahead of the season two premiere of his comedy series The Last O.G., Tracy Morgan appears on this week's episode of Sneaker Shopping. The actor/comedian hit up Flight Club in New York City with Joe La Puma to talk shop and pick up some kicks.

Tracy begins the episode by remembering how Slick Rick triggered his love of sneakers. From there, he dishes on never wearing dirty shoes and being more into classic footwear as opposed to newer, brighter models. Morgan also delves into the deeply-rooted connection between sneakers and hip-hop, and how people from Brooklyn have the best style.

Before discussing his 4,000-plus pairs of sneakers in his New Jersey home, with 10,000 more in storage, Tracy hit Joe with a memorable story of how he once pooped in a local swimming pool because some kids stole his adidas Superstars.
