I am a Nike/Jordan guy mainly, but man, this collection is sick.
+Memphis Thunders agree with you 10000%
+Memphis Thunders We agree!
Nice Kicks what is the name of sneakers on czcams.com/video/NaKPdLKLRq4/video.html
this episode and the one with sneaker grandpa are my favorite episodes of sneak peek !!
+Wael Bououni ewww sneaker grandpa was so bad....generic ass newbies and sauconys, he had no exclusive ones
+jerusareem i like these two because of how wearable their collections are , i don't realy care about exclusivity ! but that's only my opinion
Agreed. Like my collection full of variety, which makes a true sneakerhead.
+Wael Bououni Agree with you. Two things jump out about their collections:
1. They both appreciate quality
2. they both know what they are talking about when it comes to their collections
TheTurdFerguson1 and both their collections are suitable for people that do have to go to work
Seeing a lot of the comments, very sad. Seems most people miss the point of what Sneek Peak is. It's not meant to affirm the tastes of viewers, many of whom all wear the same stuff. It highlights what's beautiful about sneaker culture. That independent of ethnicity/gender/social status, people have awesome collections, and varied ideologies about their footwear. Rather than dissing someone with a different taste, try to look at things from their perspective/lifestyle. Don't know why so many seek the alternative where everybody has all the same shoes/mindsets. In a world with thousands of shoes, so often, so many make it a narrow conversation.
Well said my man unfortunately like the one guy said that's way to deep for most of these young kids. They have a one track mind and it's jordan , jordan , jordan hype .
People say those things because of the fact that these people are rich and famous and yet they still have tons of grs and not much different than the other people. That's why even though the perfect pair has mostly Nike and Jordan's he actually had tons of samples and exclusives that's why he's considered the best. In my personal opinion I think Greg street has the best collection we've ever seen but to each his own.
💯
S0052 magooch bruh his New balance collection makes me wanna go get some they fire idc
New balance is the most underrated brand of all time I’m happy that they are getting more recognition today now in 2019
George kiel polo game strong 💯
Best Sneak Peek i've seen hands down
+Mario Magaña So good!
+Nice Kicks Hey, why did mayor's sneak peek get deleted from CZcams? thats a great vid there.
It's nice to see someone with a collection that expands in brands like new balance versus Nike and Jordan every time. Sick collection!
Great to see some variety and also the point of view from a shop owner with the opportunity to produce collabs on his own. Refreshing to see something different and someone collecting and wearing what they like with variety mixed in instead of shoes that never get worn. Another great season NK and continued success to Rick and Burn Rubber.
This guy moved into my Top 3 sneak peaks. Hella crazy collection, Burn Rubber also got some dope collabs under its belt too
Why dont they do george kiel and he could present himself i think it would be dope
truue
+DRE.DR thats what i been wantin them to do
+Knowledge Is Power 😂
The older guys Grandpa, Rick & Perfect Pair drop wisdom and stay humble. They don't act tough and talk down to other collectors, they are just passionate about what they like. Much respect.
This and Sneaker Grandpa's, for me, is my dream collection.
Maaannnn seeing this video reminds me of that day Rick did the 30 days of NB...honestly that video back in 2011 before the release of the first collab they did with NB inspired me to pay more attention to the brand!! So thank you Mr. Williams
Wow I’m impressed it is nice to see something unique
My favorite Burn Rubber shoe is their Spirit Of Detroit one..I'm from Chicago but you have to love the inspiration and attention to detail.
Those Red Devil 670s at 2:30 are absolute fire.
Another great Sneak Peek nice kicks! Keep up the great work. I enjoy these episodes were you guys try and show something different
this has been one of my favorite episodes for sure great job on this something different
The Spy vs. Spy New Balance pack...need it!
one of the best sneak peeks. no doubt. respect
This episode and the episode with sneaker grandpa are the best ones
Favourite collection of the entire series 🤙🏼🙏
One of the greater sneak peek videos Nice Kicks! I know Mr. Williams has always done it big for years!!! I'll always remember him as the new balance junkie!!! Hey just a suggestion....one of the seasons you do should strictly be heads of the boutiques. People like Frank The Butcher, Jay and Bernie from Extra Butter, Erik & Peter from SNS, Chase from Rise, and so on. Also, after doing Greg Street, definitely need to have an ATF Crew sneak peek - DJ Clark Kent and Bobbito and of course Mayor!
When I first watched this I didn’t pay attention at all to it, now 5 years later I’m absolutely addicted to new balance. Realizing how much of a only wear jordan and lebron kid I use to be 😂
WHAT! YALL AINT EVEN KNOW HOW EXCITED I AM TO WATCH THIS
lol yall know its real when you pull something out and the first thing out your mouth is "oh I should start wearing these again" ....
this dude and grandpa are true sneaker heads, dope collection. new balance, asics, adidas and reeboks where it's.
This guy seems like one of the coolest dudes that has been on sneak peak, that's what's important to me. Collection isn't important really, but it's nice and I'm a fan of that also.
those infared 6s and dark blue sauciness thoughhh. dope vid
Finally someone who says Saucony right
The maroon ventilator, all 3 gl 6000s, and his Air Max IDs were dope
This is one guy where his shoes tell a story, is more meaningful to collect it this way than chasing the releases.
Excellent series!!! And yes, I support idea of making one season with CZcamsrs.
im so happy that a diversity of taste is represented on nice kicks!
What an extensive collection of New Balance! I wish I have these :(
might be the best episode i've seen
Props to +nicekicks for opening the eyes of all the kids who know nothing outside of Jordan, Nike, Yeezy, and maybe Adidas by featuring sneakerheads like Mr. Rick Williams. Hopefully they not only appreciate but start diversifying their own shoe collections!
All folks need to do is just get what they like. it that happens to be JUST one/couple of brands or every shoe brand under the sun....as long its what you like.
Dude is mad chill, nice stash
he had some sick ass new balance and dope shit we don't see every day
Great episode. I really like dude. Large Professor of sneakers!
Nice kicks this series was dope i wish you would bring it
Props to NiceKicks for featuring sneakerheads like this man. This goes to show that their is more than just Jordan and Nike shoes that are dope.
finally someone who has other brands of sneakers besides nike.
Hey nice kicks I'm a young collector and I love watching these videos to see what sneakers I like and don't I want to say thank you and keep up the good work
+Noah O.G Thank you so much for viewing our videos!
finally a collection that isnt 99% jordans
Dope mad respect
Rick is a lot like me when it comes to collecting Kicks especially ones that not everyone has got (I don’t mind custom kicks I’ve only got one pair of AF1’s white with paint splattered all over them) 💯👍🏾
Another dope collection
Simply outstanding
Thank you again @NiceKicks for another good season. COME back SOON!
Rick Williams-Detroit Legend, was hoping you were going to show the Vernors New Balance, and the Spirit of Detroit Reebok collab. 2 pair I wish I would have been able to get before they sold out.
Props to NiceKicks for featuring sneakerheads like this man. This goes t show that their is more than just Jordan amd Nike.
Nice collection this guy made it into my # 3 spot . #1 Perfect Pair #2 Sneaker Grandpa. I know it's hard for these kids/hype beasts to believe but their are other sneakers out there besides jordan's
this is one of the best features!!
Dope collection
I wanna see a Sneak Peek of someone with a sick Asics collection. Get on it, NK!
His collection is dope . A lot of 🔥🔥🔥
+rarrirooster15 Love it!
A breath of fresh air seeing all these shoes not really in the super hyped up shoe game.
best collection ive seen imo
+Maxx Millstein So good, right?
This episode was dope! Would love to see more of his Adidas joints
+Ishan Gandhi Rick has so many gems.
Love New B's. Still the most comfortable sneaker to me.
Burn Rubber always has them joints!
I notice every time I push play I say FIRE FIRE FIRE...
Jet Life To The Next Life
Jimmy Grewal we in here... Pinky and thumb up #JETLIFE
Something abt a collector having the original boxes….⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I only have one pair of ventilators and I had to go a full size down, do all of them run big?
I remember only seeing 993s and 998s now I think new balance is the biggest company running with that lifestyle running inspired shoe
This shit fire everyone in the DMV would agree
Refreshing in a game over-saturated with Jumpman exposure...
👀Yo boy fresh!
Top 3 sneak peek IMO
What size are those Reeboks? Those GL6000 are a top 5 Reebok collab ?
What are the dunk shoes called on min 15???
Yooo i really dig this dudes collection
+GeloBeans We love it, too!
George we wanna yours and Simpson's collections!
At the 13:33 mark what is the name of the camo shoe?
Should have a season with people in the music industry like fat joe and wale then another season of athletes
Do Kick Genius that would be the ultimate sneak peak
dope
Really nice episode
+Sam Eb8⃣ Thank you!
i love the subtle shot he takes at certain "influencers" who insist they invented color-blocking.
Started like him but with the September blue 6s lol
Damn all of those NB
Dude reminds me of an older Lupe Fiasco yo
I like his pants tho. Anyone?
great episode
+Sneaker Kraze Thank you!
what shoes are he wearing?
Go to europe next season!
U guys should do Odell's shoe collection
can we get a new season going
This dude looks like a retired Dwyane Wade. One of my favorite collections.
My favorite collection so far. At least this brother is original. I'm sick of seeing the same Jordans and Yeezys.
burn rubber! they had a sick show on youtube for a while. never a season 3 though. too bad :/
The homie Rick!
name of the shoe @ 4:09 ? thanks family
Good to see someone pull out wallies for once
those burn rubber iversons...i need em
+Blind Barber So good!
what was he wearing at this vid?
Closed my eyes and thought he was Q Tip talking

Can you do Ricky Jarrett's closet next?
