Benjamin Kapelushnik is the Sneaker Don to the stars

I'm not that into sneaker culture. I like a few pairs here and there, but for the most part, the kind of shoes that generate lines are the ones I tend to steer clear from. But this kid Benjamin Kapelushnik is not like me. He is the opposite of me. Known as the Sneaker Don, he has generated over $1 million in sales of sneakers to celebrities and hip hop artists over the years. He's 16.

One of this biggest fans and buyers is DJ Khaled who you may already know as a huge sneaker collector (video below). Turns out a lot of those sneakers are from Benjamin and because of that the two have become quite good friends over the years. Pretty cool, but weird.
