When Simu Liu Secretly Took Jordans From Shang-Chi Set – Marvel Still Hasn’t Found Them

In a move straight out of a Hollywood tradition, Shang-Chi star Simu Liu took home a keepsake that Marvel Studios probably never expected to go missing. While Marvel is notorious for guarding its props, Liu managed to sneak away with a pair of Nike Air Jordan Access sneakers worn during one of the most memorable scenes in Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings—the iconic bus fight.

In a candid interview with GQ, Liu admitted, “I’m pretty sure there is a Marvel PA out there still trying to track these down. But guess what? On my last day of shooting, I did manage to swipe them.” Talk about a move no one saw coming—except, maybe, for Liu, who clearly wanted to hold onto the moment. The bus scene was a fan favorite, with Liu’s split-kick move making waves across social media even before the movie hit theaters. Now, those very Jordans are a permanent reminder of that thrilling scene. Liu plans to display the shoes “in a case, somewhere until somebody I live with tells me that I can’t keep these around anymore.”

But the shoes weren’t the only items Liu couldn’t live without. When asked to share his top ten necessities, Liu listed a range of things from basketball to bubble tea. Alongside the Jordans, his list includes Asian snacks, sunglasses, watches, an Xbox, a Theragun, and even a manuscript of his book We Were Dreamers. His humble nature shines through when he adds, “I’m trying not to get ahead of myself too much. I really just want to see how this movie does and, hopefully, you know, get to do more.”
