After years of working with the Reebok brand, Hall of Famer Shaquille O’Neal was named President of Reebok Basketball in 2023. The former basketball star, who wears a size 22 shoe, regularly steps out in Reebok sneakers, whether he’s hitting the red carpet, pounding the pavement or appearing on a talk show.

During an FN interview in 2021, Shaq revealed that he is actually a size 20, he prefers to size up whenever he buys shoes.“My shoe size is 20 but I like to wear a 22 because when I was young we couldn’t afford proper shoes so I had to wear my shoes tight,” he said. “[Now] I always get my shoes too big to make sure I have room.”

When the legendary athlete isn’t sporting Reeboks, he’s been known to pair a dapper suit with timeless loafers. He’s also not afraid to take footwear risks. Ahead, discover some of his most stylish moments through the years.
