Golden State Warriors star DeMarcus Cousins is giving Meek Mill a huge look. New reports claim the NBA All-Star is set to don a pair of Puma sneakers aimed at promoting prison reform.
According to reports, Cousins is lacing up the must-see woke kicks tonight (January 24) as his Warriors take on the Washington Wizards in DC.
Meek teamed up with Puma to launch the new Clyde Court #REFORM kicks — the profits of the shoe will go to Meek’s Reform Alliance whose mission is to reform the probation and parole system in the U.S. Everything about the shoe has a special meaning. The black coloring represents the American prison system. The red symbolizes the blood and sacrifice of those who have fought for justice. Gold stands for future victories. (TMZ)

There is also serious messaging from the bottom to the top of Cousins’ sneakers.
The shoe’s color, black, represents the American prison system. The red message on the bottom of the shoe, #Reform, represents the blood and sacrifice of those who have fought for justice. Gold accents represents future victories. Finally, there is a message from activist Tommie Smith, who along with John Carlos shed his shoes and raised a gloved fist on the winners’ podium after medaling in the 200-meter dash — Smith winning gold, and Carlos bronze — at the 1968 Summer Olympics in Mexico City.
