Being big is something Shaquille O’Neal knows a lot about. It comes with its own advantages, but it also possesses its own challenges. From cars to clothing, it’s a chore for Shaq to fit himself into most things without ordering custom products. Shaq’s appearance on the Jordan Harbinger Show last year gave us a bit more context about the same.

O’Neal appeared on The Jordan Harbinger Show to discuss his basketball career, business dealings, the current NBA scene, and a variety of other things. During the show, he addressed his issue with fitting into things because of his size. Building on the same, Big Diesel took his jeans as example and made a shocking revelation.
“I will buy in bulk because I don’t like shopping. So like these jeans I have on today, I guarantee I have 40 pairs of each color in my house…I wanna have 200-300 pairs of jeans in each house.”
Shaq also revealed that he is a t-shirt, jeans, TOMS-type of guy, and he has to custom order all of these things. In fact, he once famously ordered a thousand pairs of TOMS shoes because the manufacturers refused to make a single pair of size 22 shoes. The NBA legend’s relationship with the brand has been solid ever since.

However, it’s not that Shaq only spends his millions on mundane everyday things. In fact, he recently splashed an estimated amount of $27 million on a private jet, with a Dunkman logo on it. That’s definitely more celebrity-like than buying wholesale goods.
