The boxing champ was pictured courtside as the Heat took on the Phoenix Suns in head to toe cold weather gear, down to his $795 apres Balmain ski boots.

Mayweather, known for his over the top fashion, had to be a little on the steamy side. The weather low was a not so balmy 77 degrees.

According to Balmain’s website, the so called Capsule style is made of nylon and leather, ideal for the Swiss Alps, not downtown Miami.

But we applaud the fact that Mayweather decided to dress up for the occasion. Might we suggest sneakers next time?

We know pal Kanye West makes some cool kicks; the rapper-designer’s Nike Air Yeezy 1 Prototypes sold at auction for a record $1.8 million last year.

West and Mayweather just partied together at the club for Mayweather’s 45th in Miami. Oh, to be a fly on the wall listening to their sartorial discussions.
