You might have come across our article from a couple weeks back when we announced Ty Mopkins joining Mr. Alan’s as the new Brand Ambassador. Ty is one of the most well known and respected sneaker influencers nation wide, he has also helped out our website tremendously as well so we are very thankful to have a guy like Ty around.

We caught up to Ty at Mr. Alan’s on Woodward and 8 Mile in Detroit to ask him some questions regarding his new job role, charity work and what it means for the city of Detroit. Expect some great future collaborations to come out of Mr. Alan’s now that Ty is on board with them.

It’s great for us to be able to highlight the movers and shakers in the sneaker industry because many of our readers don’t really know or understand how these types of businesses work. We hope you enjoy our video interview below. As always be sure to keep it locked to Sneaker Bar for all your daily sneaker updates.
