Dez Bryant Discusses Jordan Endorsement While 'Sneaker Shopping' with Complex

When it comes to kicks, Dez Bryant is willing to put even the most intense NFL rivalries aside.

"It's only serious on the field," the Dallas Cowboys wide receiver told Complex's Joe La Puma during a trip to Miami's Shoe Gallery in the latest episode of Sneaker Shopping.

"I'm a huge fan of Victor Cruz. I love his sneaker. I think they're pretty dope," he added of the New York Giants wideout and his collaboration with Nike.

Maybe it's because Bryant, with his never-ending assortment of Jordan cleats, feels as if he's the leader of the fresh-footed football player pack.

"I know [my cleats] are fresh," he said with a grin. "Everybody's gonna be watching, and I know everybody's gonna want a pair. I feel like I kind of started [the crazy cleats trend]."

Not every player has been able to so easily follow Bryant's example. When Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo gave it a shot, he was left hanging by the Jumpman.

"I was at [Romo's] house, and he said, 'Hey man, can you call Jordan, and can you tell them to make me some cleats?'" Bryant described. "I called and it was only for the Jordan Brand."

Even though his talent has earned him entry to the exclusive club, the All-Pro receiver doesn't take his endorsement lightly.

"When I was younger, I couldn't afford [Jordans]," Bryant recalled. "Being a part of the Jordan Brand is a dream come true."
