Are the Reimagined 'Bred' Air Jordan 4s Any Good? | The Complex Sneakers Show

[@Complex]

What do you think is the best Air Jordan 4 ever?

[@gregfilmsstuff8886]

bring back Full Size Run!!

[@askaboutme8257]

I have to say IMHO it's a tie between the Grey KAWS 4 and the Fear 4 from the Fear pack.

[@oyedotuno9014]

Grey Kaws 4 is a strong contender

[@stussy1993]

The entire OG set, Encore Eminem 4's, Tour 4's, UNDFT 4's, Thunder & Lightenings, and Lasers. Best 4's ever

[@chukwuemekaduruji6793]

Bred 4s with the nu buck

[@ianm81]

Set looks nice. But having the shoes be visible in the main shot would be cool

[@brendandunnecomplex]

Gonna switch it up a little bit for next week.

[@galvey3591]

Love the set, however colour grading makes it difficult to watch

[@mrotaveria]

Hepathitis colourway, JLP hands look weird.

[@nak5eno616]

Too much green

[@bornandraisedinCali]

Wayyy too much green in the shadows especially. Thought I was the only one

[@gg_2315]

@@mrotaveriaright at the 10min mark they looked ghost white

[@jaybee4118]

It looks ok on my iPad but watching it on the big TV everyone and everything has a nasty green tint.

[@theshoemmelier]

When it’s a full wide shot, the wood panels, dark green background, and colors on the carpet give it a 70s vibe. When it’s a close-up on Welty and Dunne it looks fine. The lighting on the close-up on JLP looks off from side to side. Look at the difference on his face and hands when he moves around.

[@dgoody84]

There was nothing wrong with the last set imo. Don't quite understand why it had to change.

[@TheOneGuyUKnow]

Change is good

[@Dontbfake]

Change is good to get away from dementia

[@fabioacosta8067]

So then keep the set the same on YOUR viral podcast

[@venkateshjaiswal1612]

The carpet is bad for a sneaker show. Not able to see the sneakers clearly.

[@oyedotuno9014]

The set is good , the carpet is definitely horrendous .its making the set look like a jungle

[@PadreDePato]

Need a black “off white” carpet 👍🏼

[@A_78939]

Matches the atmosphere, I love it. It’s hard to see obvious green shoes but better than a grey concrete flooring

[@TheOneGuyUKnow]

[@jangthoven2603]

Brandon heard you don’t even worry they gonna have that ovaries changed by the next episode prolly

[@ApostleRashad]

I have a suggestion. Each one of y'all should have your top 3 sneakers of the year on the back wall that you rearrange throughout the year. By putting up, removing or staying with the order.

[@Yesyou_]

Welty getting called out in his New Balance D riding is hilarious

[@ianm81]

100% agree on DBooks shoe. Not releasing in PHX, being limited and then moving onto other color-ways before letting people having them in hand is a head scratcher.

[@jordancarter4060]

Mustache is gonna be waiting another 5 years minimum for the nubuck pair. Bro Bred 4s are a must cop for me regardless the materials used.

[@Moe_Lester_fromUptwn]

With swoosh? absolutely

[@MFSHECKS]

Im good with the set changing and all but i just hope the og podcats vibe prevails, no new format. And the carpet it’s just a little to wild, need to tone it down. Glad to see you guys again 🙌🏼

[@whykid]

Gotta protect Welty and Brendan at all costs. Welty has been dropping truths after truths every episode, even on FSR (too bad that's ended). His analogies are GREAT and stance on certain things deserve praise. Brendan's non-bias attitude has always been so good for discussions and debates and needs to get more credit on that. Joe, well JLP is JLP but sometimes I can't help but feel major FOMO, try hard, and hyping a lot of things that mainstream media pushes like Welty and Brendan are supposed to be agree with them can be kinda corny imo - almost reminds me of Ross Geller lol. But no hate though, these guys have been truly giving great perspectives since day 1.

[@JawnNawva]

I agree but the chemistry is peak with these three. Even when their takes aren't as good, the product is quality.

[@whykid]

@@JawnNawva one hundred percent on the chemistry.

[@mattkaminski1832]

Hyping those wack terra humaras was a bad take by jlp and jlp is my guy also not trying to hurt d books feelings is a bad look

[@kalbataofficial]

Great new set, color grading is weird, kinda miss the desks. Welcome back 🏆

[@THEsoulquarian]

I got the 4’s from 2019 and prefer them over the leather version. Still think the leather 4’s are dope and definitely going for them.

[@djlawler9925]

I think the leather Jordan 4 bred are fire. Are they better than the original suades? No but I think they are still a very very good shoe and a must pickup. The leather makes it better for someone who really wears their sneakers, easier to clean and maintain and just looks better worn than suade. And it’s fine if most people don’t like them because then they are easier for me to get more than one pair. Wear what YOU like not what others think are good or not.

[@meshboysummer]

Great show. Not the biggest fan of the lighting/color palette though. It puts a green hue over everything that just kinda puts me off. Idk if there's a way to add great lighting effects without making you all look jaundiced lol.

[@inalaboyy]

Love that Brendan’s getting Aussie exclusive TNs.. Tides go hard asf. Need to get someone from Australia on the show. Sean McDowell would be great as he designed the TN, he’s doing a trip to my city (Brisbane) & another to Sydney for TNs

[@timli1830]

Thank you to the team at Complex for posting this video today! I was just told that I have a non cancerous brain tumor which I did surgery for yesterday. This video has really brightened my day!

[@JoseGarcia-qp1kg]

Love the show guys keep this one alive 💪🏽

[@liampaschen4328]

love the set, would love to see a lot more sneakers though

[@sjeverton]

Definitely need complex sneaker spotify lists

[@scottyderouen4696]

Good take Welty about buying kids real or reps. I must agree that it is not practical to buy kids expensive sneakers.

[@wp-theillest1987]

I really couldn’t wait for this….BECAUSE THERE IS NO MORE FSR-we need an hour and 45 mins…..more abt the sneakers tho….I would pay a small fee for that.

[@haiinguyenn777]

Finally, only show that I love from complex finally uploaded!!!

[@rickkivick90]

lol Welty knew them Taylor lyrics without hesitation. Good job playing it off . Good show you guys .

Great podcast !!! Sneaker talk is always a vibe

[@thabisomuthui8997]

I agree with Matt when it come to taking away the sneaker of the year, their should be archival picks

[@kimberley6763]

I’m not a fan of the set. A little too retro 70’s for my taste. Also, I like Welty’s takes but, sometimes, he comes across super pretentious and that can be a tad off-putting. Glad you guys are back!

[@TrealMP]

Instead of the plants we need sneakers as the backdrop. And get a different carpet lol

[@chrisscanlan8819]

Can you please add a pic of Welty’s jumper in background?

[@shady2493]

I’m crying from happiness. I was just wondering about this show yesterday

[@Papertryl]

The undefeated nikes should make the list. I need those.

[@wp-theillest1987]

Need those croc sneakers….I have vowed to never wear crocs…BUT THOSE!….must have

[@BookerT69]

No lie besides air pods the Salehe Croc is one of the best things I’ve ever bought

[@CiscoSneaks]

you guys are busy enough but taking this show on the road and making it like a 2 hour show just talking about sneakers would be super awesome! im such a fan guys!

[@brendandunnecomplex]

Hope we can do that some day-would love to pop out to different cities.

[@omarmac1]

Greatest set for a sneaker show….miss them this holidays

[@j4s0n1337]

Can you please add a framed picture of Welty in a fitted?

[@CiscoSneaks]

So good to have you guys back! dearly missed!!!!

[@jonjulofranklin3873]

Yo…thank God you guys back…love the new set and you guys are GOATS…that’s it before I get emotional.

[@JayyT_727]

Matt and Brendan's Fortnite bit at the end was gold. JLP to Matt: "You think if people go to a Travis show it's like playing Fortnite?" Brendan: "You've never even played Fortnite, buddy!" Matt, trying to answer Joe's question: "The other day, over the weekend, I was..." Brendan: "Playing Fortnite?" 🤣🤣🤣 - so glad these guys are back!

[@Phamousillday]

The set is nice! However, I could be wrong but I only saw Reebok and Nike shoes, could you guys add other brands?

[@carlosboixlopez8859]

Sneaker of the year over here it’s the military blue 4s no doubt 💎 thanks for all the great content guys! Keep doing what you do

[@desihernandez3476]

I am beyond grateful to see & hear you gents in 2024!

[@arthurman6129]

I think the purple and green hue in the lighting is a bit too harsh. I understand that those are the colours of the new set but it’s lighting the hosts’ faces and hands (very anaemic looking) in a very unnatural way. In the long run it’s probably worth tinkering to make the lighting look a little more neutral.

[@drewdistefano4267]

Welty was on defense mode this episode. How many times did he reference that he likes stuff the others dont like and they like stuff he doesnt like

[@nhlanhlazwane9465]

The only shoe podcast that matters! Best Wishes Gentlemen!

Guys talk about spiderman and then proceed to do the spiderman meme 11:06

[@zanemontego8090]

I’m with Joe with the Magma colorway of the 1906. I was with the Lava one at first but that ruby red midsole just catch my eye more than the silver. IDK how the purchase experience was for you guys on the Spunge website (if you went for them that is). But it left alot of people disappointed and wondering why they didn’t get a password to enter the store. And for those that did say the shoes were sold out while it was in their cart and checking out. 2 days later I found the password in my spam folder SMH and SB said on his IG story that there won’t be a New Balance web store release …utterly ridiculous. My opinion, this shoe drop was worse than the GANNIS 1906. 😮‍💨

[@ahkeem_thedream]

Managed to cop a magma size 12 on site. Had the password from the email but a ton of Twitter sites posted it as well. Password became functional right at 12 pm.

[@zanemontego8090]

@@ahkeem_thedream I found the password from a comment on IG. 20mins later there was only a size 10 left and after one click it was sold out. LOL

[@McFlyGod]

First of all, they are “Black Cement” 4’s. Second of all, the leather pair is better than the original nubuck.

[@doctorterrell]

I think the set should either look alike a back storage room of a sneaker store, or a custom sneaker set up like where you can sew your sneakers and paint them. I think it would be interesting to have a guest do a little custom sneaker when they come on there also while you guys are talking.

[@rchrdp305]

Glad to have you guys back. I’d say maybe add more sneakers in the background behind JLP. Maybe on top of the foliage and on the sides. Maybe special pairs from each of you.

[@askaboutme8257]

I like the new set. That green, purple & wood frame on the walls definitely a clean look. Idea here..I was wondering if you all ever thought of bringing on a fan to interview on The Complex Sneakers Show?? I think it will be pretty cool. Of course I volunteer to be the 1st! Let's make it happen 🙏🏾!

[@Dontbfake]

I like the set. Gonna grab the reimagined breds. I live in rainy PNW this ones for us 😊

[@doctorterrell]

Also, I think you guys should do a segment where it’s on location either at a sneaker drop or something exclusive, or a sneaker convention

[@wsjones1981]

That's wrong, I love the Puma Mostro. I just both both colorways that released on the 13th. I hope PUMA re-releases the RPT & Urban Downhill too. Come on guys, show Puma love. They make some great shoes!

[@andrewwhite2488]

THANK U GOD!!! U GUYS ARE BACK!!!! I WLD LOVE TO MEET YALL!!! APPRECIATE U GUYS!!

I like how Joe said he hasn't bought a Jordan in a while but yet THIS one puts him back in the store.

[@SLUMOUTLAW304]

MATT MELTY IN THE CUT ‼️‼️

[@jr69135]

What's up guys. In regards to the new look, I would recommend an alternative center piece displaying the Complex logo. That specific green backdrop behind Joe does not compliment the set overall. I would suggest an emerald or pine green color to add a more vibrant and modern look. I also think that a fountain style display for the Complex logo could be very interesting. I would reference Greek mythology . Any design on set "giving" the fountain of youth or a wishing well aesthetic would be so awesome !!! I love the grey paneling and overall lighting of the set. The brown paneling behind Welty and Brendan is nice , but a brick like design with a similar colorway would pop much more especially as a additional background for any type of signage. Lastly, I would suggest removing carpet and moving torward a wooden floor or a more neutral color for carpet possibly grey, blues, or tan. When we look down at your feet it would be visually stunning if the floor represented some form of pavement, blacktop, hardwood, or sandlike design. Love the show. Keep up the great work. Quickly becoming a huge fan!

[@demetriusbryson1706]

Add any Gifted pair of Sneakers from every Epic Guest & create a Museum Tour after every season…!!! Love Y’all’s new set up 2024 to Infinity

[@mattyjruys]

How many times will Welty say "ubiquitous" this year? Can he break his own record? Start counting.

[@Milky_17348]

The boot talk was a surprise for me. Can't wait for the whole crew to have a full boot cam at least for one episode. My personal recommendation would be a pair of Tecovas.

[@SneaKUR]

Sets 🔥🔥🔥 fellas

[@williamsmith9315]

Set is decent, visual quality seems clearer too. If being critical, the books under tables aren't cool. 👏

[@subidoody]

Pancakes are good for you. All syrup set aside, would be sweet to see some cool LEDs in the set backdrop. Also, the reimagined black cements are amazing quality surprisingly. I remember trekking around in Europe with my 2012 Bred 4s 10 years ago. Loved the nubuck ones, but not mad at the leather pair at all!

[@fite1313]

Maybe add the 'Accountability Whiteboard' in the backround somewhere but otherwise the set is cool... no need to overthink it. Most of us are here for everything else besides the set.... also giving the set designers notes from us is like the set designers giving you guys notes on segments & talking points!😂
