What’s the best Air Jordan after 15?

[@jaymags3458]

None lol.

[@krob41]

16

[@cmn225]

16 & 18

[@evanmacdonald240]

18 royals. For sure

[@EricMrRareAir]

16, 19, 18, 17, 20 (in that order!)

[@claytonduffymusicoffical]

Tod krinsky was one of the best episodes in recent memory,, been loving this podcast (almost) every Friday since almost 2 years ago now. Appreciate it legends

[@Resist_Oppression]

Matt tells the LONGEST stories ever 🤣. His stories take up a 3rd of the show. Dope epi as always. Love the banter that fires when guests aren't on the show.

[@XavierPatterson15]

It wouldn’t take him so long to tell the story if he could stop getting cutoff

[@Resist_Oppression]

@@XavierPatterson15 nah, he likes to pause, ramble, get sidetracked, etc.

[@falcons889]

You need to drop two podcast a week man I can’t get enough

[@12w0]

Nah.

[@Resist_Oppression]

Facts

[@christopherbrown9573]

Welty may wear fake kicks, but he was DEAD ON about NFTs. I love the conversation about the Dot Swoosh stuff at the end of the pod. The hilarious thing to me is how the whole NFT craze seems to have come and gone before Nike could get this off the ground. RTFKT must be laughing all the way to the bank.

[@tylerm2769]

which fake kicks?

[@on10toes]

@@tylerm2769 all of em

[@VLoydM]

Great stuff boys! Had a busy weekend, just sitting down now to enjoy your insightful anecdotes!

[@AvalancheBT]

greenwall reference in a complex sneaker video wow. Worlds colliding, shoutout H3CZ

[@ronniemanning1157]

I hit on the lost and founds so can’t complain! Definitely wish more pairs were made so we could see everyone enjoying them

[@tiffanymeharg9408]

Sheesshh, that SW 97 is just such a pretty shoe! Congrats to who ever got that pair!

[@dgoody84]

Lost and found release was extremely disappointing. Tried for 10min straight to log into SNKRS with no luck. To get an L is bad enough but to not even get the chance to enter is just unbelievably disheartening!

[@Resist_Oppression]

Haha just another red and black jordan to me. I don't get the need for em.

[@3d1k3]

If the fabric can handle it, a quick wipe with a cloth damp with alcohol does the trick with mold. Had a storage issue and had a few kicks and some jackets have light mold and while I dry-cleaned the clothes wiped the kicks down and did a regular cleaning and it did the trick.

[@Sneakahead555]

Kick game proper as always ! The Salomon’s are insane ! Great question and a great sneaker giveaway ! I’d have to say 17’s but I do love 15+. Such unique silhouettes ! The run New Balance has been on is just crazy man ! I would say those 990 v2’s are a little of a contender Love this podcast forever ! Amazing episode guys !

[@jorgeiznaga470]

Those Salehe NB are tough 🔥 but Joe Fresh Goods and Bodega NB’s are fire 🔥 too!!

[@LilLou97]

Was waiting for the moldy Jordan’s topic, been happening a lil too much lately

[@Lilcali99]

FSR. Hot Ones and this today! What a blessing!

[@Pastasash]

Got extremely lucky to hit on the L&Fs, stayed resilient and was somehow able to get my entry in on SNKRS, waited 1.5hours and never have been happier to see a $190 apple pay notification to go through 😁, UPS man didn't steal my pair and it showed up with no mold. Seriously can't beat the odds any more than that I feel like, so extremely happy been needing a pair of Chicago's forever and I've worn them non stop, they're my Sneaker of the year for sure!

[@zanemontego8090]

Thanks for occupying my afternoon. I can’t sleep as I want right now.

[@Checkz_over_Stripez]

Best thing about Friday is getting paid and THIS SHOW!

[@DaS718]

It’s funny Virgil incorporated the window from the 2010s on the 5s and everybody loved it

[@peterrossini6345]

It’s so epic how Welty gets to weigh in on the sneaker world! I give him credit I like how he Moves ! Epic pod as always boys !!

[@peterrossini6345]

The story at end is epic Welty !!!🎉

[@peterrossini6345]

I have a friend named Kirby ! He had a dog named Kirby to !! Back in 99

[@peterrossini6345]

Dunne Woth tuesche at the end

[@peterrossini6345]

What about the 2 companies that Nike is suing

[@Dab3s]

i saw welty in person at complexcon and by golly his head is huge 😭

[@ryan52397]

Welty looking at those wotherspoons like an ex 🤣

[@rockN]

brendan w the starcraft reference. respect

[@MrLamarkelley]

Q. How do you guys determine what shoe to wear everyday?

[@saad19140]

Joe wanted to say “Ronnie splits the wood” so bad 😂😂

[@Rocca500]

The 17s are my favorite silhouette!! I nvr owned a pair tho. We need a retro asap!!!!

[@Schoei]

I work in a retail space and we have had a handful of name brand shoes and slippers get moldy because of shipping and covid but that hasn't been a issue since Aug(ish)

[@besronsitumorang.9284]

Good content

[@Yaowaaa]

14:30 how do you remove the fairy dust? Help!!!

[@Devananta-Rafiq]

Best podcast

[@jacobw2389]

Is there gonna be vid of the sneaker of the year debate at complex con?

[@stuart1767]

A few pieces I saw predicted resale of the lost and founds to be about $500-600 so for those that missed out the resale price now isn't too bad in the scheme of things. I'm a bit like Welty, I just don't wear high tops so would rather spend the money on something I'd get wear out of.

[@andyc484]

Did u guys do a pod at complexcon?

[@alexnyny]

How often do you clean your sneakers? At what point to you consider a sneaker cooked or retired?

[@ohiorichkidbeats]

That 9060 is HARD

[@djswany85]

Taking a bump means something entirely different to a lot of people

[@gfeast4518]

I just hope I can try to get the lobsters, I got the purples by camping but have had no luck getting dunks since then

[@TRPERA]

Lobsters got botted to death.. expect a re launch soon

[@hoodfellah]

I’ve always hated the 18’s until recently, but the black and blue, them joints hard

[@Its_kevvvv]

Wow no mention of the Up There 2002R the original release beautiful shoe

[@TheGoldinChannel]

Oil Spills on Suede Sneakers was a Bad Experience for Me but I couldn't Imagine getting a BRAND NEW Pair with Mold on them.

[@CristianColunga]

Shoutout to the Montreal folks, happy for y’all 😒😞

[@dtowngreatest3880]

Yo joe where did u get that hat it’s fire

[@edhere4u2nv]

how old were you when you got your first Jordan 1s?, what store?

[@tulost4u]

my bro went to seoul last month at they did camp outs for sambas there XD

[@bigjj15000]

Hold the entire phone, so you guys just not gonna mention Jordan Retro 20s, ankle strap and the strap across the foot with the details on them and that patent leather. I remember being in 6th grade wanting those so bad. Those have always been lowkey 🔥🔥🔥🔥💯

[@frenchfryheadahh2050]

My favorite Jordan to this day💙 glad someone appreciates the shoe lol that gets no love EVER

[@bigjj15000]

@FrenchFryheadAhh fr like I never seen them pop back up since all them years ago and I've always felt they were clean

[@DR.DisInfect]

I was so happy my lost and found came moldy part of the story. But seriously I got a free pair of js and they were easy to clean

[@joewalsh.studio]

That pink NB is the best salehe shoe yet imo.

[@EricMrRareAir]

39:14 the mock ups ALWAYS look better than the actual sneaker smh

[@angelpadilla2206]

How do I ask a question to the hosts

[@adamtan1413]

what do you think about the whole nike decades situation? do you think nike will ever rerelease them or will we ever see a resurgence of the model? 🛸🛸

[@ignignokt-6050]

What happened to the daybreaks? Is nike not producing them anymore?

[@adamtan1413]

​@@ignignokt-6050 lol decades, autocorrect

[@colouryounge]

Idk if you guys are familiar with the streetwear brand Kiy Studios, but they are on the wrong end of yet another Nike lawsuit, much like Warren Lotas & John Geiger. I’m curious on how Bape is able to get away with essentially bootlegging the AF-1 but these guys get hit with major lawsuits.

[@puplake]

The Welty Whistle was not something I was expecting.

[@mr.t844]

Welty in the food lagoon....lol

[@hoodfellah]

Where did they talk about the a ma amiere’s?

[@williamsmith9315]

Distilled vinegar for the mold. 👌

[@o.3313]

Shoutout greenwall lol

[@yabeny86]

Matt looks like a human being without the hat… Good job my guy

[@Resist_Oppression]

We need epis that last longer than an hour. Especially when no guest is on.

[@JoelJ79]

Q: Today most hyped sneakers go with relaunching classics, new color ways and collaborations. What will be next creative disruption?

[@drparham]

L&F tainted Nike alot to me all the resale shops in NYC saying they got their products directly from footlocker

[@Neophoenix89]

What is that hat Joe is wearing? Mainline Carhartt or a collab?

[@jwwj30]

Definitely Carhartt, it’s their logo.

[@Neophoenix89]

@@jwwj30 right but I feel like it might be a collab. Haven't seen anything like it on mainline carhartt or WIP.

[@Ratchetfan321]

Carhartt WIP Raynor Cap is what it is p sure.

[@downtownmb26]

I hit on Lost and Founds, but they were "awaiting shipping" for over a week. They ended up refunding me because they didn't know where they were. Such BS. I want my J's!!!

[@Benny_From_NY]

JLP is a try hard much respect to Welty and dunne for just being them

[@luisaponte8404]

Do you believe that Nike announcing a cut in production of 40 percent will just add new botters and resellers or will this force Nike to come out with better color ways and better quality shoes ?

[@luisaponte8404]

I am not able to reply but I hope I win.

[@Munchy2000]

I want to see Joe with a Welty beard, maybe a bit more groomed though. Also, you need to get Deon Point on the podcast.

[@shotbysaldana]

“Microdose Mold 🦠 “ - Welty

[@Jeffreynelius]

You’re telling me Welty worked himself into a shoot?!!

[@franalations]

Welty cop a SneakerPunkz by Franalations XD

[@joelgabriel]

Did they even mention the A MA MANIEREs????

[@calicojakk9974]

The resellers ate them all up.

[@tonylee3091]

The 19se fire the black and gold ones

[@RichardRodriguez-pk5tr]

Bro I’ve wanted a pair of those shoes forever lemme get those

[@Chaotic_Neutral76]

Just Nike effing the pooch as usual. Normally it’s just their standard subpar materials and QC, but the issues with the drop, the backdooring, and now mold took this to another level.

[@CarlosGomez-rt8vz]

Lol @ 🎻 violín and Jerimih

[@Newly.Balanced]

Some call me crazy, some give props but after the Lost & Found drop, I quit Nike for a year. Deleted acts I've had for.more than 10 years, etc & feel really good. Spending more time in New Balance & Clark's 🖕 Nike

[@TLHHE]

LEBRON 4 IS LBJ BEST SHOE EVER THE ALL BLACK

[@BookerT69]

I’m glad Joe rides hard *pause* for the 16 and 17. 17 is top 5 Jordan and the 15-23 are my favorite

[@GebbzSteelo]

i had jordan 1s that went mouldy but then i just washed them and sold them.

[@TroyGriffis-ir7lm]

back in my day dads on kicks

[@jonathanmclean2928]

16’s and 17’s!!!!

i didn’t even go for the lost & found’s 🤷🏽‍♂️ i prefer the Chicago 2’s or Cherry 11’s

[@WSUPK]

MURS 3:16

[@XavierPatterson15]

Get Sean Wotherspoon on the show

[@triniboy05]

Why would someone want a digital shoe over a physical one?

[@mikethompson3780]

Whotherspoons are 🔥 we need to see some more heat from him. The asics ones were ok, but the other releases with Adidas were mid imo

[@yahir5813]

I really like all of his adidas stuff tbh because it's just been so out there compared to other stuff. These new ones are probably the best ones so far in terms of adidas stuff

[@BookerT69]

You guys didn’t mention what shoes you have on!!!!! What is JLP wearing

[@BookerT69]

Wrong

[@busychild909]

i feel like the divisions of Adidas dont talk. Two pairs of shoes just bought same time, the 22 Code Chaos fit exactly the same as the last 3 seasons. and a pair of Adidas Drop Sets which fit almost half a size too big. TF

[@JoelJ79]

The SNKRS Nike app is awful, I’ve never been able to get any good drop. I hate it, but is the only likely way to get retail price without paying lots of extra fees on or getting finessed by resellers. 😞

[@Mr.Vega4]

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.
