Drake shows off his massive Kobe Bryant shoe collection.

Generally, when you are in awe of someone’s shoe collection it includes Christian Louboutin, Manolo Blahnik and Jimmy Choo. But if you’re a sports fan (which, you probably are) it’ll look more like Drake’s closet does … but probably on a smaller scale.

Drake showed off his massive Kobe Bryant Nike shoe collection on what would have been the NBA great’s birthday on Sunday. We lost count trying to keep up with all the shoes Drake has and it honestly feels endless.

Kobe Bryant’s shoes were more than just athletic gear

The shoes have meant a lot to a lot of people, especially now that Bryant is no longer with us.

“Every game, I write on my shoes, ‘Be Legendary,’ which is what Kobe signed on my shoes back in 2016,” says Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (h/t Nike) “He’s had an impact on my life that no one’s ever had, and probably no one ever will have again. He taught me to ask myself, ‘What am I doing here if I’m not trying to be the best at it?’ That not just a basketball quote. That’s a life quote for me.”

Various sports figures around the world shared their memories and tributes to Bryant who died earlier this year. The Los Angeles Dodgers all wore Bryant jerseys before the game and Bryce Harper wore a Bryant shirt under his jersey on Sunday.
