Dez Bryant owns how many pairs of Air Jordans?!?!?

Maybe you love Air Jordan shoes. Maybe you have a few pairs of J’s. Heck, maybe you get crazy and are into double digits. Or you’re out of your mind and have more than 100 pairs.

You’d probably pass out if you saw Dez Bryant’s shoe closet.

He has … between 3,000 and 3,500 pairs of shoes. All Jordans.

“I have two rooms filled up with shoes,” Bryant said, according to Clarence Hill of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram. “My garage is filled up with shoes. My other garage is filled. It’s between 3,000 and 3,500. I’m going to have to tweet y’all a picture.”

Let’s say 3,000 is the right number. It means Bryant could wear a different pair every day for eight years and still have some he hadn’t touched.

But that won’t happen, because Bryant won’t be caught wearing yesterday’s Jordans. Or even tomorrow’s Jordans.

“I’m not wearing a shoe after it releases,” Bryant told Hill. “When it releases I’m done with it. I get my shoes six months to a year early. I’m already in January 2017 right now.”

Now, this is an important point: Bryant is sponsored by Jordan Brand. He said he gets 50 pairs of shoes each month sent to him (seems like overkill with 30 or so days in a month, but whatever). A shoe habit of a dozen shoes a week could get expensive if it was coming out of Bryant’s pocket. But he’s fine.

Bryant said he’s planning to donate all his shoes to charity. Someday. For now, he’s happy collecting.

“Nobody has better shoe game than me, beside Jordan himself,” Bryant said.
