Russell Westbrook made a notable style statement this weekend.

The basketball player showed up to the Thom Brown Spring 2022 show during New York Fashion Week wearing an ankle-length white kilt, off-white cardigan with front pockets and a diamond choker.

To complete his avant-garde and modern look, Westbrook paired the look with lace-up leather boots featuring brogue details and pebbled leather uppers. Many celebrities like Jordan Clarkson, Will Smith and David Harbour have embraced the kilt style. Westbrook’s minimalist ensemble offers some edge with his choice of footwear while keeping the look clean.

Though Westbrook is very well-known as a basketball player, he dabbles in fashion collaborations as well. Earlier this year, the athlete worked with Nike to release the Jordan Why Not Zer0.4 in the “Marathon” which is his signature basketball footwear. This multicolor sneaker shows how versatile and modernist Westbrooke can be.

The star also has a penchant for other high-end designers and cult-favorite shoes from Gucci, Dr. Martens and Thom Browne. As a true sneakerhead, Westbrook can be spotted in polka dots sneakers, multi-colored shoes and Converse kicks.
