Being a rapper has had a long standing perk of having masses of screaming fans who will do positively anything to emulate an artists' distinct style, and Tyga's T-Raww shoes, made in collaboration with [Reebok](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kanghyuk), sees fans getting the chance to walk a day in this rapper's wild footsteps.

Tyga's T-Raww shoes feature bold [animal print kicks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/samba-sneaker-4) that see tiger and leopard patterns combined to form shoes that could double as a tribute to the large, furry felines living in remote and exotic locations around the globe.

Accented with gold-printed writing, Tyga's T-Raww shoes pays tribute to this young rapper who is covered nearly head-to-toe in tattoos and is well-known for sporting a flashy and eye-catching wardrobe.
