Getting a list of li using selenium java

I'm trying to get a list of the li on this website http://www.supremenewyork.com/shop/ but it doesn't do what I want it to do.

this is what I'm currently using 

public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {

    System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "Your\\ChromeDriver\\Path");

    ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
    options.setHeadless(false);

    WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(options);

    driver.get("http://www.supremenewyork.com/shop/");

    List<WebElement> allElements = driver.findElements(By.cssSelector("ul#shop-scroller")); 

    System.out.println(allElements.size());

    for(WebElement e : allElements) {
        System.out.println(e.getText());
    }

}

and all it returns is 

new

Edit: I'm trying to get the ul in the div with the shop class

if you want to print the ul inner html (or get its attributes such as id and style), you should do like:

  driver.get("http://www.supremenewyork.com/shop/");
            List<WebElement> allElements = driver.findElements(By.cssSelector("ul#shop-scroller"));
   WebElement ul = allElements.get(0);

   // getting ul data
   System.out.println("ul id = " + ul.getAttribute("id"));
   System.out.println("ul style = " + ul.getAttribute("style"));
   System.out.println("inner html: ");
   System.out.println(ul.getAttribute("innerHTML"));


   // getting all li in ul
   List<WebElement> liList = ul.findElements(By.tagName("li"));
   for(WebElement li: liList) {
       System.out.println("li class = " + li.getAttribute("class"));
       System.out.println("li style = " + li.getAttribute("style"));
       System.out.println("inner html: ");
       System.out.println(li.getAttribute("innerHTML"));
       System.out.println("---------");
      // getting the image  in li
     List<WebElement> imgList = li.findElements(By.tagName("img"));
        WebElement img = imgList.get(0);                
       // do something

}

In fact, there is a "new" text in the span of each li tag. That's why the method getText() prints "new".

Thanks to everyone who helped me find a solution. here is my final code for anyone else that comes across this problem.

public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {

    System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "C:\\Users\\Name\\Desktop\\WebStuff\\chromedriver.exe");

    ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
    options.setHeadless(false);

    WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(options);

    driver.get("http://www.supremenewyork.com/shop/");

    List<WebElement> allElements = driver.findElements(By.cssSelector("ul#shop-scroller")); 

    WebElement ul = allElements.get(0);

    List<WebElement> liList = ul.findElements(By.tagName("li"));

     for(WebElement li: liList) {
    /*       System.out.println("li class = " + li.getAttribute("class"));
           System.out.println("li style = " + li.getAttribute("style"));
           System.out.println("inner html: ");
           System.out.println(li.getAttribute("innerHTML"));
           System.out.println("---------");
           */
           WebElement link = li.findElement(By.tagName("a"));

           System.out.println(link.getAttribute("href"));

           driver.get(link.getAttribute("href"));

           return;

       }



}

If you observe the HTML of the website http://www.supremenewyork.com/shop/ the data you are looking for i.e. skate, jackets, sweatshirts, etc are contained as class attribute of the <li> tags. To get a list of the <li> tags you can use the following code block :

List<WebElement> allElements = driver.findElements(By.cssSelector("ul#shop-scroller li")); 
System.out.println(allElements.size());
for(WebElement e : allElements) {
    System.out.println(e.getAttribute("class"););
}
