- Did you know Michael Jordan wore New Balances in the original photo that inspired his famous Jumpman pose? Joe Freshgoods celebrated that 1984 moment on his latest New Balance collaboration, which cohosts Joe La Puma, Brendan Dunne, and Matt Welty discuss here. They also react to the incoming Powerpuff Girls set of Nike SB Dunks, which may or may not be a totally unnecessary collaboration. Elsewhere in the episode, the cohosts react to Rihanna’s rekindled Puma deal, the merits of the reimagined black/red Air Jordan 4, and the uselessness of SNKRS Day.

Mark jackson lol😂
Get CZcams premium lol
Fz150
It’s great to see Joe Lah- Pewmah back at the controls . A wealth of experience in the sneaker industry
Northern Iowa alum. My mind immediately went to our football team when you said turf shoes and Division 1-AA football, little did I know the name drop was coming 😂 S/o Welty
Wow I was wondering if their would be a Jason mark commercial thank god y’all didn’t disappoint
Shouts to Welty for making up words lol
Love Welty but lordt...when he gets into one of his soliloquies, talk about watching paint dry 😂😂😂
🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Yo, I was thinking the same. Dude will run it into the ground and put you to 💤
Snoozefest!!
As somone that’s been skateboarding since 98, seeing powderpuff girls SBs is awesome, love the idea, would love to see DragonBall z, Samurai Jack SBs. It’s Better idea than some Soda company that nobody drinks, and all of a sudden they pretend they knew what it is cuz a pair of SBs dropped
Weird gatekeeping on the PPG Dunk SB. It's to celebrate the original cartoon's 25th anniversary.
Right gotta keep the same energy for jarritos which they all love
It’s not Friday without this ! Kick game properrrr! Straight into it, I love it !
Love the Salomon talk as always, my Tie Dye’s have plenty of miles on them !
Oreo 4’s are one of my favorites in my collection
This was such a great conversation !
Amazing job guys !
Welty calling out jlp to name a grateful dead songs is comedy
I said the same thing😭😭😭
You could literally just say anything and it’s a Grateful Dead song lol
Those cold wall TN's in the black colorway is the biggest JLP shoe i think I've ever seen!
Nice pick up Brendan!! I just picked up the lows this week!! Love the artwork on the shoes and the materials 😮💨
I'm definitely into the leather bred 4 if just so I can wear them in the wetter months here in the NW without the worry. Can't wait!
Avanti was a big thing back in early 2000s in Spain for sure. I had a pair of red ones back in the day
I stand w/Joe & his EXCELLENT TASTE in sneakers. I am a huge BIG JLP shoe supporter (although I CANNOT AFFORD & my best pairs of sneakers are Marshalls bargain bin Champions, 1 hairy sued black w/ white sole, & 1 White leather w/ slim gum bottoms that literally look exactly like nurse's shoes🤷🏾♂️) but imo JLP has some the BEST takes on sneaker releases, & even better taste...
{ALL MY OPINIONS & nothing more}
-also, Welty's Asics are fire af💯
Good to share the story about that Life Magazine photo with the famous Jordan pose. It's hard to believe that the photographer didn't get any credit for it. Anyway, Jordan looked good wearin new balance!
Shoutout Brendan Dunne with the rammellzee sb high 👏 🙌 cop'd a pair also.
I was actually in the Shepards Bush Nike store in London and chatting to an employee and wished them a Happy SNKRS Day and they didn't realize that is was happening
This doesn't surprise me
37:16 Does anyone know where to find this colorway? I don't see it anywher when I look up the palace solomons
This gotta be my favorite episode a lotwas said but not said in this episode
They are so back!!!!
Audio levels seem kinda lower this episode. But i still love you guys.
The Jordan Jumpman Superfreak or Cover 23 whatever they wanna call it is SUCH a fire shoe. My homies hooped in them some
Lol the gifted SBs cinco de mayo were for Peso Pluma from the sneaker shopping episode.
I had a pair Puma Avanti's in 2004!
at this point they should call it the pg knows sneaker show this guy gets so much free pub its ridiculous.
“I feel nothing” 🤣
Y’all my boys frfr
imma freak out if i have to hear that jason markk girls voice again
The Jason mark ad is the most annoying thing I have ever had to endure
Brendan basically got the name of the mall right. It’s called Valley River Center
"Chicago Exclusive"
JFG New Balance 650🔥 "Stuntman"
I Want those Nike Sb Power puff girls because they remind me of my youth
YO NO WAY THEY BRINGING OUT THE LINENS AGAIN! I literally just commented on the last vid i needed those to come back out. God bless 🥲
Nah I thought that too, who ever was editing messed up haha. They put the clip from last weeks episode in at the beginning by accident haha. Or they just forgot to take a sneaker cam for the intro because they’re sneakers on feet in the episode are different.
Thank you JLP , Welty is most definitely The Gates!!’n 18:43
Speaking of sb's I need the strawberry coughs. The maui wowie. And I was born in 92 I need them Powerpuff girls 😂
92 is definitely the perfect year for the peeps who loved them. I was born 88’ and still watched them some
AMAMZING VIDEO
you aint even watch it
@@slixzzfn9653 I did , how you gonna tell me
@@user-pg5kn4ev4i because u commented 2 mins after it was posted and the video is wayy longer den dat
@@user-pg5kn4ev4i u commented that 2 mins after it dropped and the vid is an hour long
@@user-pg5kn4ev4i so stop lying and get a life
The story is cool, that 650 not so much.
The KTP shirttt
🐐
Ayooo lets go
34:30 Should have made the NB 650 shoe limited to 650 pairs instead of 500 🤷
Welty been feeling sauzé lately!
The mall is the Valley River Center
When are we getting a new full size run 😭😭
Shoutout Kittery ME!
NEED THE KICK PUSH DUNK
The intro is from last week! So wrong shoes :(
(This was at 1hr after upload)
SB Dunks and Dunks in general tell the best stories and it’s never forced. Whereas other brand silhouettes seem forced.. lol forced.
Exactly lol to say sbs and dunks story feels forced is crazy, sbs has always been concepts and references to pop culture or anything related
I swear Welty either got beat up by or got his girl stolen by a guy who wore Puma shoes. 😂
Big Matt Melty episode
58:32 I still don’t understand the shattered backboards. The story meant nothing to me & people act like they care about leather quality to justify the hype. Also 1000$ black cats is nuts. I saw a vid on how to customize THUNDER 4’s to make Black Cat 4’s and I nearly had a heart attack thinking about 2006 lol.
I had the randy moss cleats man they was super clean.
Nike STILL hasnt released Lupe Fiasco SBs
"ROWDY RUFF BOYS" 💪🏼
I think the opening clip is last weeks because those are not the shoes they wearing this week
ASICS literally makes the best football boots/“cleats” & have done for decades
Aint nobody gonna give it to up to Trinidad!? And his GOLF! I see him paying homage to Tyler the creator trinidad look fresh asf and I cant believe this is the last season I hope you all come together again and make some new content ive been hooked on FSR for years ill have nothing to look foward to anymore besides the complex sneaker show 😢
The Powerpuff take. My friends dad is a big dead head. He’s in his late 50s and has the green Grateful Dead Dunks. Welty do you think he’s too old to be wearing them?
Pumas are legit !!! I wonder why Welty hates them so much😊
Cuz of Jay Z
Bcuz he's Welty.
Got those pink humara supreme for 30€ in a factory for a friend :p
There WASNT a Snkrs Day in the US….. 1 sneaker drop………1…..
I knew something was off when on a heating up episode they mentioned how’d we would hear a lot more about & that didn’t happen. You can’t even watch the episode they mention it in anymore 😂
Just updated the 3 worst things in life. Death, Taxes, and Jason Mark ads.
It feels good not to wreck your feet with uncomfortable dunks.
I know Welty hates puma & I'm not the biggest fan but no love for the suede? The puma suede is a classic I feel. The new model feels great on foot & still looks good
I got a size 8 super freak
The footscapes are so good but the price was just wrong
Amazing how you guys can be doing this show for so many years and still struggle keeping your mouth on the mic.
There was supposed to be a power puff girls show or movie.. but it got scrapped. So maybe this was supposed to coincide
Powerpuff Girls cartoon debuted Nov 1998; it's their 25th anniversary. Nothing too deep here.
WATT MELTY
For me NB 650 ald are still winning in 23'
Talk about DBook1
How about a Ed ed and eddy 😅SB
"It's the complex guy"
Not one Polo pony 🌈🫣🤮🖕🏼lol
Anytime I see anyone wearing a show that sells for more than 700, I assume they’re fakes every time
Look Fellas…. We’re getting old. The Y2K era is resurfacing. We’re gonna have to pump the breaks a little on our era, most of these kids don’t know about MF DOOM.
Pat Melty
I think y’all are a little bit out of touch with the power puff girls topic. The powerpuff girls was rebooted in 2016 much like the dunks returned in mass toward the mid to late 2010s. The powerpuff girls returned and found new audience and so did the Nike dunks. If anything there’s a synergy in the resilience of the two collaborators.
Y’all need to get Derek Curry on the show….
The power puff girls were known for skateboarding lol
All though I can agree to be a good shoe you need a good story. But does the good story alone make it a good shoe?
Is eBay the best place to buy sneakers?
Is it me or is the volume lower than ususal?
Definitely is lower. Glad someone else mentioned it.
@36:47 Brendan's deceptive laugh
The new J.Balvin Jordan 3 sunset is on my to cop list this year big time!
One thing I’ll never buy… Jackson Marcus shoe cleaning products
Those RiRi’s wit da big bottom was nice nice doe for a girl
Wrong shoes at the beginning edit 🤦🏻♂️
Can we not talk about Powerpuff girls shoes?
"You can school me, all you want." - Them Fenty Pumas are wack and I'm not copping them at all.
Ayooo
Welcome back to Jason Mark Fridays brought to you by the Complex Sneaker Show.
Jlp dresses like a uk person
I’m sorry but how do people think the chunky dunky is a good shoe? One of the ugliest sbs to ever come out, just pure hype for the sake of hype
About 90% of sneakers on resale are priced way to high and they can't name one shoe. 🤦♂️
Use me as a “I’m not buying Jason Mark because of the heavy handed advertising” button
Shootout to UNI. Go Panthers!
Jason mark commercial is extremely annoying
Team early
