I don’t think it’s the worse but I think the most disappointing and lazy sneaker of the year are the South Park collection by adidas. Could of been a lot better for a show like that
Dunne is an absolute tank. Happy you’re alright! Love everyone on both FSR and the Complex Sneakers Pod but Dunne is my favourite person in sneaker media/the sneaker world. Stay safe out there Brendan.
Welty hit a core memory of my first sneaker store that I shopped at as a kid. It was on 86st in between 20ve and Bay 25st in Brooklyn. It did that same thing, price was hand written and the sizes were on the bottom of the sneakers. Thanks Welty
Brendan I am glad you are okay. You are right it could of been worse but thank god you came out of this with just some scars. I am happy you are able to laugh through this but please always wear a seatbelt!
Striped box era, hands down. You got; The bangers... What the Paul, Travis Scotts, Ben and Jerrys, Carpet Company, Street Hawker, Habibi, Strangeloves, Civilist And The Grateful Dead. And then on top of all that you have The Cliver, The Mummy, Strawberry Cough, The Parra 21', Stingwater, Hawaii and The Reverse Skunk. Is it even a fair competition? But I get nostalgia plus I wasn't a sneakerhead then so don't have the emotional connection to some of these pairs.
nike sb era was when I was at my prime "sneakerhead" age, so glad I kept so many of my shoes even if I skated them and are beat to death, they still remain some of my favorite kicks to this day
I'm new to the Complex podcast and Full Size Run so when I saw homeboy with the scar I didn't know the reason I've been watching episodes all out of order so I finally see this episode and get the whole car crash story, glad to see he is ok 🙏 wear your seatbelts and drive safely everyone, God bless and take care 💕
Welty, to your point about the homer and Jedi dunks not feeling as in your face as the adidas collabs, it’s because the Sbs were not official collaborations
Love you guys! Always feel part of the convo and part of a community🙏🏾 Sidebar grabbed the first pair of Cncpts Air max and was sick they aren’t tear away like I thought at first still a great shoe🤷🏾♂️
Glad to see Brendan is ok and cracking jokes. Silver box era hands down. I know we're all going through dunk fatigue, but 10 years from now the Striped box era will be appreciated more and probably be looked at as one of the best. The Rebellionaire's were definitely a bit of a miss for me. With all of the words it looks more collectors item than wearable sneaker.
I'm with you 1000% In the striped box era you got; The bangers... What the Paul, Travis Scotts, Ben and Jerrys, Carpet Company, Street Hawker, Habibi, Strangeloves, Civilist And The Grateful Dead. AND then on top of all that you have The Cliver, The Mummy, Strawberry Cough, The Parra 21', Stingwater, Hawaii and The Reverse Skunk. AND then a bunch of general release colourways. Is it even a fair competition? But I get nostalgia plus I wasn't a sneakerhead then so don't have the emotional connection to some of these pairs.
Pink box era is the best era imo, you have the grails [tiffany’s, stussy’s, Hufs, Medicoms, Unkles, pigeons] but you also had sleepers [vapor minerals, Band-aids, rayguns, bttys pack, midnight fogs, Hunters, jpack royals, classic white/st pattys day, etc] the quality is so much better, i been collecting silver box-gold box era and i just feel like pink box era is the best era, nice quality, colorways and had the fattest tounge of any era. Nike SB got really creative during the ‘04-‘05 era.
Got goosebumps hearing folks mentioning the Sea Crystal SB Dunks. Definitely one of my fav and still hunting for them. JLP, can I trade yours with my Supreme Burberry pink bogo hoodie? 😂
Dunne always with the smile & good vibes no matter the situation ! Love that he's in the Royal's again. Glad he's good 🙏🏽 Amazing question & beautiful give away 🔥 I would have to say Gold & Pink box era That retail story was so good and very true. Strongly agree with those 1's, don't like them at all The Air Max conversation was so dope ! Big fan of the AM1's & 90's Beautiful episode guys !!🔥🙏🏽
Truest is a great shop indeed , I’ve been in there twice and as an average Joe the owner wasn’t interested in me being in his store, no welcome, no what are you interested in, no have a nice day. No need to spend a thousand bucks on those hazes he had in my size.
A friend of mine was killed in a car accident sitting in the back seat. Their truck also flipped and in the process of flipping he was flung out of the window landing on his head.
Y’all triggered me when y’all mentioned mark down days😂, worked at a Footaction for 4 years so I know the struggle! Definitely agree on those were the most stressful but crucial days working in sneaker retail
posted comment before seeing the episode just so anxious to get some heat in a sz 10, sorry to hear about the car accident, slow it down broski, a lot people count on you to make their day two times out the week with fsr & csp going strong as ever we need the “pun dunne(don)” around to keep it goin but my question for the guys of the podcast, favorite sneaker moment of each other outside the podcast
saying that Drake's simple but original shoe is worse than those tacky Jordans is just crazy to me. the Drake shoes aren't my style at all, but they're simple and i can see the design through a positive lense if i choose to
I feel so bad for Brendan but by being here he proves that this is just what life is: you have to keep moving on and getting stronger. I am happy to see him laughing here. 🙏😊❤️
What's the worst sneaker of the year so far?
Solefly Jordan 1 low followed by every Yeezy that’s not a 350.
I don’t think it’s the worse but I think the most disappointing and lazy sneaker of the year are the South Park collection by adidas. Could of been a lot better for a show like that
Plastic leather dunks
Rebellionaires for sure no debate
all the yeezys
I love that Dunne is who he is. No matter the situation. Always got a smile. Always with the jokes. Get well soon man.
Glad Brendan is ok. Hearing Joe mention that he didn't tell his mum until he knew Dunne was ok shows how close everyone is.
Appreciate you making it to this week’s podcast & VERY thankful you’re still with us 🙏
More important than any sneaker discussion, so glad Brendon is alright , life is precious🙏👍🏻
God bless Brendan we’re glad you’re okay. ALWAYS WEAR YOUR SEATBELT!
Yeah wishing everything goes smoothly for everyone and everyone stay safe. Thanks for pushing through it Brendan Dunne.
Dunne doing the entire pod with dried blood on his face is insane but he’s a G for toughing it out just for our entertainment. Good episode guys. 👍
Dunne is an absolute tank. Happy you’re alright! Love everyone on both FSR and the Complex Sneakers Pod but Dunne is my favourite person in sneaker media/the sneaker world. Stay safe out there Brendan.

Let this be a lesson. THIS IS WHY WE WEAR SEATBELTS! Could have been so much worse but happy you're ok Brendan.
Not a mustache hair outta place. Gotta love it. Glad to see you're doing ok dunny. You're here for a reason my guy
Brendan I am glad you are okay. You are right it could of been worse but thank god you came out of this with just some scars. I am happy you are able to laugh through this but please always wear a seatbelt!
I can remember swing tags being as Matt describes when I worked in sneaker retail here in the UK, mark down/sale days were a nightmare!

Sports Express in Baltimore does the handwritten tags with sizes and price, very few still do that.

Happy Brendan is okay true legend bless your soul brotha!
Glad to hear that Brendan is okay
47:00 is where the talk of the Rebellionaire's start. I don't know how they missed that on their own timeline.
Sneaker city downtown Seattle still has the the same tags! Classic feels everytime!
Welty, to your point about the homer and Jedi dunks not feeling as in your face as the adidas collabs, it’s because the Sbs were not official collaborations
Glad you're alright Brendan. The podcast and FSR wouldn't be the same without you. Get better soon!
Just woke up and I was waiting for Dunne to gives us a status on his health on the podcast. Glad you’re ok!
Love you guys! Always feel part of the convo and part of a community🙏🏾 Sidebar grabbed the first pair of Cncpts Air max and was sick they aren’t tear away like I thought at first still a great shoe🤷🏾♂️
glad our boy Brendon is all good and seem to be in good spirits thanks for pushing through for this ep
Glad to see u kickin B
I want that hoodie Joe. Great colour.
Love to you Dunne. Respect to JLP and Welty for showing love to Dunne also. Love.
The photo Brenden posted on social is epic…. Love the smile
I wore my Royals today too!! Glad you’re doing well Dunne 💪🏾💪🏾
when i saw the photo i noticed Brendan in J1s first and after liking it i then noticed his face.. Glad everyone is all good! Stay safe peeps 🙏🏻
I feel like this podcast isn’t getting the marketing it deserves… should have way more viewsSsss. Keep up the good work guys
Dunne glad you r ok and honestly photos are cool
Glad to see Brendan is ok and cracking jokes.

I'm with you 1000%
In the striped box era you got;
The bangers... What the Paul, Travis Scotts, Ben and Jerrys, Carpet Company, Street Hawker, Habibi, Strangeloves, Civilist And The Grateful Dead.
AND then on top of all that you have The Cliver, The Mummy, Strawberry Cough, The Parra 21', Stingwater, Hawaii and The Reverse Skunk.

Helping me get through my Friday in the office 🙌🏻🙏🏻
Glad Brenan is okay just watch FSR was wondering what happened. Get well soon. Love the episode always love the conversations
Shoutout Welty with the casual Ellese
Hey, I saw Brendon Dunn today. I left him alone, but he looked to be in way better shape now!
Oddly enough I got into a car accident myself recently, fractured my wrist. Nice to relate with Brendan somewhat 🤧
I didn’t know this had happened to my boy man I am glad that everything is okay 🙏🏽
I need some royal 1's now , de3finitely glad our boy Dunn is ok. Gawddang
Glad to see you’re good Dunne! Hope you make a full recovery soon!
Got goosebumps hearing folks mentioning the Sea Crystal SB Dunks. Definitely one of my fav and still hunting for them. JLP, can I trade yours with my Supreme Burberry pink bogo hoodie? 😂
Yo Brendan hope you good bro, glad you’re alive man. Kinda tough seeing you like this, but I’m glad you’re good.
I like how Welty always acts like he’s about to cry when the guys tease him he gets so serious 😂 no no no! 😡😂
I live in West Palm and I kid you not.. I just bought my first pair of On's this past weekend
Dunne always with the smile & good vibes no matter the situation ! Love that he's in the Royal's again. Glad he's good 🙏🏽
Amazing question & beautiful give away 🔥 I would have to say Gold & Pink box era
That retail story was so good and very true. Strongly agree with those 1's, don't like them at all
The Air Max conversation was so dope ! Big fan of the AM1's & 90's
Beautiful episode guys !!🔥🙏🏽
Dunne dripped, flipped and still skipped away! Rest up and feel better soon 💪🏼
Dope
Good times Atlanta/Charlotte Family is a great store !
Truest is a great shop indeed , I’ve been in there twice and as an average Joe the owner wasn’t interested in me being in his store, no welcome, no what are you interested in, no have a nice day. No need to spend a thousand bucks on those hazes he had in my size.
Prayers to you Dunne 🙏
I really, really thought that someone would bring the fact that last week Matt said that Premium Pete would hit Brendan with a car.
Love the special sauce shoutout. Miss that place
Good to see you alive Dunne,and I have to say you look more Irish now
A friend of mine was killed in a car accident sitting in the back seat. Their truck also flipped and in the process of flipping he was flung out of the window landing on his head.
Glad Dunne is ok. Hopefully he gets a bag💰.
Good to see he's good and not harmed, I wonder if he would get discounts with one foot
Brendan.... glad your ok. Get better and stay positive
8am at Finish Line but it felt good catching something that you wanted and now it’s so low.
Dunne, so glad you’re safe & recovering. Only thing I’ll say is what mamma would say, buckle tf up from now on. Life forever brother
Hey I aksed that question last week, about your favorite stores and their experience.
Best era is the Orange Box era aka the beginning of NSB. But pre-NSB Orange Box era aka Pro Bs are best
Thought at first that Dunne was out tapping cars in NYC again.
Walters in ATL used to have some underground shoes.
Dunne seems like he's kinda person to never wear a seatbelt in a car but wear every single pad and a helmet when rollerblading.
We can get that Roger Pro sponsorship happen ;)
Y’all triggered me when y’all mentioned mark down days😂, worked at a Footaction for 4 years so I know the struggle! Definitely agree on those were the most stressful but crucial days working in sneaker retail
Brendan doing the pod fresh out of a concussion shows true dedication.
is that Freddy Krueger in the purple hoodie?
each person’s fav sneaker moment outside the podcast of each other
posted comment before seeing the episode just so anxious to get some heat in a sz 10, sorry to hear about the car accident, slow it down broski, a lot people count on you to make their day two times out the week with fsr & csp going strong as ever we need the
“pun dunne(don)” around to keep it goin
but my question for the guys of the podcast, favorite sneaker moment of each other outside the podcast
my fav sneaker moment of brendan outside the show now is the royals on the ceiling great to know you’re here to tell this great story
Speedy recovery Mr. Dunne!
i love the rebelionaire:)
we love you brendan💪🏽❤️
God Speed Dunne! Your Spirit 💪
You the MVP, Dunne 💪🏻
Don’t forget Rayguns Pink Box!
When the shoes are almost $200 more at a in person sneakers store, I often just look and think I can get it cheaper online.
Glad you're ok bro...🙏🏾
saying that Drake's simple but original shoe is worse than those tacky Jordans is just crazy to me. the Drake shoes aren't my style at all, but they're simple and i can see the design through a positive lense if i choose to
Glad you’re ok Dunne!
for someone who doesn’t play sports
dunne is a great sport
get well Brendan!
I feel so bad for Brendan but by being here he proves that this is just what life is: you have to keep moving on and getting stronger. I am happy to see him laughing here. 🙏😊❤️
1000% the Adidas Forum High x Kerwin Frost
DUNNE🙌🏽 I love you broski
I have the jedi dunk in size 8
What is your favorite suede shoes of all time any brand ?
Respect to dunne
Dunne....bless up brother
Dunne must've caught inspiration from the Kanye documentary
JLP I need to know where you got that hoodie loll
Dunne should do a Nike ID tribute to his car accident. Kidding aside, good to know you are fine! Wear your seatbelts boys and girls!
Dunne been stress testing the new Tom sach
JLP looks so handsome in the thumbnail
Happy your good
Glad you're okay Brendan!
We all love Brandon don 😍
