Chalamet, a born New Yorker and dedicated Knicks fan, sat courtside at game two of the eastern conference finals — where the Knicks went up 2-0 against the Cavaliers — wearing Ugg‘s men’s classic mini boot. He wore the suede, shearling-lined boot in the chestnut shade, which served as a neutral tan complement to his black Adidas track pants and Chrome Hearts zip-up hoodie. This follows his latest courtside moment when he wore wheat Timberland boots for the celebrity-attended game on Tuesday.
