[@enolaholmes3309]

LOVE THESE VIDS SO MUCH! Also what's with the blurred Mars shoes at 16:12??

[@pedromolina9558]

Too much docu series in 1 week Complex. Y’all should’ve dropped 1 vid a week. Love the content.

[@basilgreenslade5471]

Pedro Molina I get to watch on my lunch break everyday man.

[@martyna5407]

@19:29 what are those shoes plz they’re amazing

[@Ohheyitscalvin]

Lebron 16 "Fresh Bread"

[@4791_]

well, so what happened to Vans? They are the first and real skate shoes NOT the Nike SB Dunk!

[@dinosaurthat]

Kudos to Gino , Reese and Danny but NikeSb is NIKE SB today because of PAUL

[@evek4785]

Facts!

[@KenGutierrez01]

P Rod and Bobby Hundred, dope

[@pedromolina9558]

The Dunks & Jordan 1s are the best shoes ever!!

[@impish-love]

2 pairs of Jordan 1s for $25 MIND BLOWN

[@TheBrob1983]

I love how in all these films the creators talk about wearing shoes ..i wish the kids today would wear them and not just hoard them and let um sit on shelves ..over time they will rot so wear them while you can before u cant ..and once u cant they will be worth nothing .

[@TheBrob1983]

@Call me Vii you cant hold forever.i know a guy who had a 20k collection in his apartment.1 fire and poof gone.

[@tezza8061]

Who'd know it,🤷🏻‍♂️ great story man.👌🏻

[@pedromolina9558]

Crazy how Nike changed the game. I wonder if the ppl in Adidas are upset with Complex for only showing love to Nike. Lol

[@petercannon9964]

Pedro Molina they cant deny the fact that nike created the culture

[@voyager7971]

Adidas fucked up when they didnt want to sign Mike

[@valdeaunia]

19:32 okay you gotta blur this part out (shoutout Welty, Dunne)

[@97NikeSb]

Nike SB changed the sneaker game and made street culture cool because it’s early collabs. Nobody can dispute that

[@kidclutchmamba8493]

THE KIXSOLEOGIST WAS HERE.

[@quintintarantino2485]

Melrose has definitely changed over the years I loved the vibe back in the day now it's just people trying to show off how strange they are and trying to be cooler then the next persons outfit with zero shopping bags in hand.....

[@Hfartini]

Turtle was the first sneaker head

[@pedromolina9558]

The Shoe Surgeon is an artist not just a shoe maker.

[@Hersheytheslowvios]

LA episode without mr. cartoons and nike cortez?

[@firstpirst5058]

Exactly. Wtf.

[@enriqao20]

Godzilla Beats dude is says “skateboarding culture” on the title lol mr cartoon is more of a lifestyle and Cortez’s are more idk... “urban” lol

[@leebear2987]

LA sk8 culture bro , not chicano

[@Hersheytheslowvios]

​@@enriqao20 yeah you're right man my bad

[@Hersheytheslowvios]

@@leebear2987 it's been 2 yrs, my opinion has changed. you're right bro. tru tru

[@friendswitdadealer]

Should be called how large corporations infiltrate organic street movements.

[@BLVCKSEA]

It wasnt just LA..it was SF and NY too...FTC..SUPREME..

[@TheVegPie]

"they're real but they look fake" lol exactly why I buy reps

[@JONINXBOX]

Real skaters wear Vans.. 😎

[@vinneyboombotz727]

Van VANS,VANS,VANS,VANS,,,BACK IN 70,-80S WE COULD ORDER OUR OWN CUSTOM COLORS ,IN LEATHER OR CANVASS

[@jantmalnegro1995]

Damn!

[@moiwarning]

Only came here for the skater side of the story because in reality we rule the world.

[@majbx]

THE SHOE SURGEON

[@_nm287]

yuhh

[@pedromolina9558]

I hope Nike rerelease all these kicks.

[@RichieGz]

LA cool and all but NY better ❌🧢

[@hiphoploverjon9180]

Why do New Yorkers always feel the need to say this shit. This is about LA go to the NY episode and say that.

[@jorgebravo8290]

Not a fam of the sb

[@agicatch22]

This docu seems too scripted... when the SB came out skaters weren’t flocking to them. You were deemed a corporate sellout if you had them. But Jordans did have great traction on a board
