What sneakers were popular when you were in high school?
"Got my Vans on but they look like sneakers"
I'm still in high school and beat air forces are popular here, and I wear fresh af1 or my Jordan 11's and I'm dripping
In the early 90's one of my favorites were the fila hightops with the Velcro straps that you would hang off the back. I forget the model name. But my absolute favorite from that time period were jordan 4's. Shelltoe adidas / superstars, air max, timbs , Cortez. Reebok classic nylons were in heavy rotation too. Both those and the
filas were mad affordable and came in any color you could want . we were rocking new balance back then too..cats act like new balance are new to the culture - "You wanna diss the Phifer but you still don't know the half/
I sport New Balance sneakers to avoid a narrow path" - Phife , tribe called quest , "buggin out "
Nike zoom
Barkleys, Jordan 6 & 7, Reebok Pumps and Kamikazes
the random catch up about stuff not sneaker related is always so good. y’all are the goats
Goats supporting goats
Welty’s rant about sizing is my #1 gripe with sneaker companies. Nothing worse than buying your 100th pair from the same brand only to find out that they don’t fit.
so i bought a size 9 gazelle on accident and am normally an 8.5 and man those 9s fit pretty well.
I talked to my niece she is in 8th grade, I turned her into a sneakerhead, I got her the dunk low Homer Dunks. She told me that most people on first day of school showed up in Panda Dunks lows and highs. She said she was happy she was wearing a pair of shoes no one was wearing and told me never to buy her panda dunks😂
We need a NikeTalk episode. So important to sneaker culture. What are your best memories of NT forums?
YAssssssss!!!! Covering everything, Froom screen names to beefs!
Love when we get a fresh epi. Dopest podcast. Also, Welty tells the loooooooooooongest stories. Even Brendan helps him sometimes🤣
I’ve been skating 20plus years and I enjoy when Welty and dunne talk skateboarding.
I watched about 4 podcasts of you guys and I love it. The randomness in yall´s podcast is very fun to listen to!
Another great video. Thanks so much, and keep up the good work guys.
My fave thing is when Welty is like 'I want to bring this up" not only coz its usually something funny but JLP usually smirks as well.
Complex keep doing ya with the sneaker vlogs keep them coming 💯💯💯👍👍👍
9:15 I’m in the process of doing that! Ultimate goal is to only keep all collab sneakers that are in specific colors. On the shelf, 4 rows, 4 pairs each row. 1st row pure white, 2nd white/black, 3rd white/grey, 4th white/unc blue, 5th white/burgundy. So a total of 16 pairs max.
me and the boys copping new sneakers to show off on zoom
You're still remote?
Another great episode! Can listen all day even if it’s not sneaker related
On the best back to school topic, there are heaps of really good sale shoes at the moment that will allow students to have a choice of affordable sneakers. If I was going back to school now, I would have to get a pair of the fire red three that are coming out next week.
I bought my first And 1’s in Chicago. It was the tai-chi baby blue and navy colorway. I also was able to buy the low top baby blue tai-chi. I remember the Jordan 16’s first dropped when I bought my and 1’s.
Never fails to entertain us
Being a DC native Wale was a huge influence on the culture. It was so frustrating wanting to cop SB’s but not being able to get them because there were so few skate shops in the DMV area and them being heavily backdoored. It was arguably worse then it is now as far SBs go.
NikeTalk & ISS days are definitely missed!
Dope episode fellas! Keep up the great content! Let's get more life talk in these pods
I work in footwear mainly running shoes and i have to do RTVs so often but finding the last shoe is so annoying.
love how comfortable these guys are around one another
Can you guys IMAGINE Welty & Kanye taking over with Adidas lol 🔥
In the early 2000s I was able to walk into emage in Denver and buy the futura SBs. They even put the Heinekens on hold for me.
Weltys rotation from the long weekend that he posted on his insta story was absolutely 👨🍳 💋 🤌
I loved the And1 basketball tournaments. I won the 3 point contest. Got 3 t-shirts and a basketball.
Man I had some tai chis for sure back in the day! With the matching trash talking to shirt! Lol
Amazing and different content.. Love from India🇮🇳
They turned my question into a whole episode
I work currently at a middle school and honestly the top 3 shoes I see are Nike Blazers, Jordan 1 Mids (they believe mids are retros) and Air Force 1s
I had the best 4 years. 2000-04. Infareds , midnights , concords then space jams. That’s just 4 months of releases.
Nike SB is doing a Cortez Remaster your thoughts on that? i like the way they look id like to get a pair on feet for the comfort factor
Phat farm sneakers were also big in my high school.
The creepy Ray Charles ending 😆
Those jjjjounds are insane.
Brendan talking about other people bad hair cuts is pretty ironic 😂
Does the price of a sneaker affect your decision to unds sooner rather than later to keep on ice?
My 5 year old wore Cool Grey 11s his 1st day of Kindergarten.
I think a great back to school shoe right now are all the Air Max 1s that have come out this year, especially all the women's colorways.
Gotta appreciate joes dyed air sunders, someone please put the time stamp where it pans onto those shoes
I want 1 of those Complex Water bottles.
ON and Hoka are big in the medical community
i got the blue union cortez theyre fire idc.
No Fear tees 🔥 🐶
Fusion Jordan’s was big in high school 06 ish
joe look like he a main character in a lego game
Digging that WWJD bracelet!!
So glad I grabbed both jjjjound ASICS
I love Matts one liners at the start🤣🤣
Is the eBay sneaker giveaway open to non-US residents now?
new balance 550.. mad popular
I'm normally 8.5 adidas US and in Japan had to go to a US size 9 🤷🏾♂️
Listening while I’m doing an rtv , the worst 😭😭
"can you add me to the wikipedia" 😭😭
Should let the podcast go longer lol I need 2 hrs
As an Oregonian... cool.
Is fsr over?
Didn't EPMD go to Brentwood Highschool Parish was a star QB at Brentwood out east
All the girls in my school wore orange dub-zeros
Travis Scott mocha 1s as a back to school shoe?!
@welty: What is the ID on the tee, please....
Weltys black & purple shirt?
28:50 don’t get to re dunne it.
Nike shox bomber mids with the heel strap ☠️🤓
Pickyourshoes was classic
Pickyourshoes what a classic lol
I wish I had a dollar for every time Welty said like
i bought 3 pairs of adidas ADV to try all size 9. Gazelle was way too big, tyshawn low way too small and superstar was true to size
Brendan, Joe, table tennis game on this show??
I think the fashion is so accessible and anyone with the money can just buy whatever to look cool and whatever is hot at the moment. I feel like a lot of people these days don’t care about the stories or history and just want to look good which is corny to me
Maybe it's how sizes translate from EU to UK sizing but have always found Adidas run a little smaller than Nike
Nike run true to size, except AF1 that run a half size big.
Adidas run mostly true to size nowadays (in UK)
New Balance run true to size unless it’s cleats.
My last two pairs of Reebok ran half size big too 🤷♂️
"shots @ my opps"
If Nike makes them Kukini in the pool water colorway IM COPPIN BEST BELIEVE
I prefer this to full size run - having the structure and topics keeps the conversation flowing .. I feel Matt has more to say - where in full size run, he always seemed out of place.
I’ve always felt JLP would be way better than Trinidad on FSR
Bruh The Professor got the WORST haircut of all time 🤣😂
Luna Rossa
I saw Welty walking down the street but didn’t want to bother him
Dang!!!…..Not Tripping just roasted you to the moon and back!!
@complex Pls leave the sneaker shots for a couple more seconds on screen. seems like they keep getting shorter n shorter. 🏆
What’s up Triipping Fam!?
Note to Welty: just because you CAN drop the weight on a deadlift, doesn’t mean you HAVE TO. Try controlling the weight on the way down as well you only get stronger.
Pandas the back to school shoe for sure and adidas sizing is ridiculous compared to any other brand
Does anyone else find it odd that yeezy slides are actually labeled wrong? They'll say 10 in US sizing and 10 in UK sizing on the same box. A 10 in UK is supposed to be 11 US. No wonder these things never fit 🤣🤣🤣
Alright, so I'll keep posting this on every episode in 2022 until eBay and Complex let overseas folks participate in the giveaway... If we can sell on eBay and pay fees, we should be able to participate.
The fact that we all thought panda dunks is what's wrong with the sneaker culture right now, no one is "unique" anymore.
Hibbert sports
What are each of your favorite memories of each other?
👍
Adidas don't run big... size 11 everywhere except Adidas i have to go a full size up .
release the welty cut
"Quit lying, you ain't seen these at Foot Locker, chump" - Murs
Man, Dunne has gotta stop interrupting everyone, every single time. So frustrating.
Nike
How can anyone hate Forest Gump?!
Welty is totally a Trumper with that mask comment explains so much about this guy from over the years
In old fsr episodes they always used to joke on Welty calling him a trump supporter
FZ-150 I jus saved a $150 Bucks
This is Full-size run without James...I like the flavor Trinidad brings
Thought Welty had changed for the better over the years but the no-mask-on-public-transit comment cemented that he hasn't.
