Bought a pair of the MIJ Puma Suedes last year a half size too small. They didn't have my size but they were on super steep sale - I was hoping I could just remove the insoles, but it didn't work out unfortunately. Beautiful shoe though.
On the Yeezy conversation -- Honestly I'm disappointed in a lot of sneakerheads for doing a 180 on Yeezy 350s. It's almost solely just because they got more popular / a lot more people are wearing them / they're popular with a lot of younger kids. They still are AWESOME-looking shoes, and are by far the most comfortable of any Adidas shoes out there. Loving something and then hating it when it gets popular is such a lame mindset, ya gotta do better than fall into that trap!
Personally the 350 fits my lifestyle more than the 380’s so its possible its more comfy but I’ll never know cus just not my style. 🤷🏽♂️ to each their own.
ngl I kind of enjoy the episodes with just the three of you like this more than the guest some times. Obviously if its a guest that fits real well its an outstanding episode, but its refreshing when you three just talk like this.
Main reason I only buy Jordan’s if I absolutely want them. Even then I won’t wear them for months. I hate being somewhere and 27 dudes got on the same shoes as me
My standard college fit ('97-2000-ish): Wu-Wear hoodie, Wu-Tang skullcap or snap-back, Jncos or Kickwears, shell-toe Adidas, Wu-Tang chain (or No Limit chain on my off days, lol). Wow! 😀
Please get Christian tressler on the podcast! Wish you guys went more into other Yeezys like 500 highs, mnvns, v3’s, desert boots. Love this podcast you guys are awesome
Most regrettable sneaker purchase(s) was anything Supra. I bought a few pairs and thought they would look good on me and they never did. Love that they dropped 3sixteen and how it used to be a streetwear brand. Had many of their shirts and honestly still buy their stuff to this day. They make some of the best denim and their blank tees fit amazing. Also, 10 Deep, Grn Apple Tree, Cardboard Robot and Blvck Scvle were some of the brands I loved back in the mid to late 2000s
I still have 8 pairs of 700s & 700V2s, There’s a 700 in my top 5, nuff said. The 350 was to replace the Roshe in popularity & did despite the price difference. I didn’t rock Roshes or 350s but copped a Wave in 2017 & never looked back
Those Air Max 93s are definitely a favorite of mine and Dusty Cactus are the best colorway. I just started wearing black Socks with these & Air force max fab five & Those high top huaraches
College footwear was rainbow flip flop, D1 swimmer. Sneakers weren't a thing in Cali, maybe some leather boat shoes. The basketball team had heat and always flexed. P.S. I did link up with the Huf crew and did some of their look books and got blessed with a bunch of free gear.
@@MegaMarioization yeah I’m cool with them, they just don’t make enough, maybe the last one was the white widows and I regret passing on them. They were even on sale at my local skate shop. People used to just cut the straps off too
Yeah, totally disagree with the “all mids are bad” take. Not to sound like a gatekeeper, but when I hear that, it does sound like someone who didn’t like dunks for skating. The grip tape mids were absolutely everywhere in that era, and Lewis Marnell made those things such a classic. RIP to Marnell 🕊
Love hearing about Joe’s college days UCONN had the BEST on court shoes. College 🏀 was rocking the best shoes back then. All 15 guys on the team had different shoes. College these days is so BORING with wack Kyries
I was rocking dunks and Creative Recreation in undergrad back in 05-06, they were super popular on campus. I remember those t-shirts I had one that said “Nike Head” and woman holding the swoosh as if she was…lol can’t believe I bought that..smh. Don’t think I will ever get into Yeezys. Great episode!
Haha I remember Jordan 1 lows at the outlet like breds and metallic blue and white, I’ll never like them and thought the Koston’s were weird when they came out but they actually grew on me a little. I wanted those air max deluxe as well never got a pair of them
I’m definitely not ashamed to boil a hotdog with chili. They come in clutch when you need something quick and don’t have time to make a proper meal. Not something you want to do too often though 😂
What do you do with all of your sneaker boxes from your personal collection? Do you store them in their own space? Break them down to save on room? Keep sneakers in them? Throw them away?
The Foam Runner is a shoe that top-down, just looks SO TERRIBLE lol. The side view looks really cool and unique, but that top down view SMH… lol. That opening is soooo wide and looks hideous haha
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.
What's a sneaker you bought that you regret?
Travis Scott Jordan 1 Low (the first one). Sold it immediately.
Not a regret but got caught up in the NMD phase and bought more than I needed
Never bought a pair that I regret honestly
None, I realy like my sneakers

nahh the 380s are far more comfy than 350s, 350 v2, and 700s but it isnt a new thing. People have always love to hate popular things
Personally the 350 fits my lifestyle more than the 380’s so its possible its more comfy but I’ll never know cus just not my style. 🤷🏽♂️ to each their own.
@@lancegonzales7710 "Far more" is a massive stretch lol. They're only SLIGHTLY more comfy.
Agreed. They're still awesome. The ones that are doing a 180 on them are lame and trend followers anyways.
Agree
I always love the episodes where its just you three.
ngl I kind of enjoy the episodes with just the three of you like this more than the guest some times. Obviously if its a guest that fits real well its an outstanding episode, but its refreshing when you three just talk like this.
Imagine not wearing a shoe you like simply because other people wear them. Do what makes u happy!
Main reason I only buy Jordan’s if I absolutely want them. Even then I won’t wear them for months. I hate being somewhere and 27 dudes got on the same shoes as me
Ikr the talks so sad
I love how Welty sits. You can tell he got all the sneaker knowledge
“Yeah but we’re talking about me”
That is actually so funny
My standard college fit ('97-2000-ish): Wu-Wear hoodie, Wu-Tang skullcap or snap-back, Jncos or Kickwears, shell-toe Adidas, Wu-Tang chain (or No Limit chain on my off days, lol). Wow! 😀
Fantastic episode! Copping a pair of Wave Runners for Brendan should be a top priority. That silhouette pairs well with his stache!
Can't believe Welty is such a Liquid Death guy. Feels like i'm watching a sponsored comedy podcast or something lol
I was in college in 85. At Rutgers. I remember playing intramural bball in my Jordans. U guys brought that memory back. Crazy.
I really really really would love to see a 350 V2 moonrock but with no stripe on the side…just an updated version from the V1 model
Please get Christian tressler on the podcast! Wish you guys went more into other Yeezys like 500 highs, mnvns, v3’s, desert boots. Love this podcast you guys are awesome
These 3 brought up the whole Karmaloop era. Lol
Still have my Undercrown and Fully laced shirts from then
57:15 jlp adjusting his posture for the question made the entire episode for me 😂😂
Always hilarious when Dunne mocks Welty for him trying to steal the attention 😂 👏🏽

Never regret watching this show!
Honestly the only yeezys I wear and will only wear are the 350s their comfy they go with anything
Joe, don't let these haters bring you down on hotdogs.
Those Air Max 93s are definitely a favorite of mine and Dusty Cactus are the best colorway. I just started wearing black Socks with these & Air force max fab five & Those high top huaraches
Im a normie and new to sneakers, but you gotta give credit to Yeezy's for getting so many new people into sneaker culture
Probably the best episode yet. Reminiscent for sure.
You guys didn’t talk about the yeezy 380s. Unless I missed it. But how do you feel about them? Definitely one of my fav Yeezys
As sneaker heads we have to wear what we like! Not what’s new and popular
Boulevard Drinks in the Square is legendary…Jimmy Buffs a N.Jersey staple too (Italian hot dogs)
joe is such a bob’s burgers character
I dunno how I never thought of this before lol that really lines up
700v2 static hands down the best Yeezy.

Many dunk mids are kinda bad, but many aren’t. Lewis marnells and realtrees are awesome
I think most of them are solid but people only think about 2-3 colorways and call the shoe trash.

the best episodes are just you 3 ALWAYS
You MUST get into contact with moto gp champion fabio quararato. Huge huge sneaker head and always wearing off white and limited shoes!
jlp’s weird beard line bothers me
the nike free run 5.0 was one of nike's BEST shoes in the last 2 decades as an every day. the 4.0s are also great.
Love George foreman grills! still use them to this day!
We NEED more episodes like this one!!
Welty did talk about his shoes he wore back in college lol great episode!
My top 5 yeezy
Oreo 350 v2
Pirate black v1
Olive 250v2
Zebra 350v2
Wave runners
Does MikePacker design ANY of the collabs they release? 🤷🤷♂️🤷🤷♂️
Love hearing about Joe’s college days UCONN had the BEST on court shoes. College 🏀 was rocking the best shoes back then. All 15 guys on the team had different shoes. College these days is so BORING with wack Kyries
Yeezys have reached the overblown stage and has become a normal shoe, but that was always the plan
That Packer 992 is a great shoe.
Yes sir, big shoutout to Jersey!
Wasup guys always enjoy watching the big three
welty drinking liquid death makes sense though. if you guys didnt know, the liquid death water is skater made and skater owned.
The key to great hot dogs is water in the skillet rolling it around learned that at a hotdog joint in Chattanooga, TN called Good Dog
I was rocking dunks and Creative Recreation in undergrad back in 05-06, they were super popular on campus. I remember those t-shirts I had one that said “Nike Head” and woman holding the swoosh as if she was…lol can’t believe I bought that..smh. Don’t think I will ever get into Yeezys. Great episode!
Welty can you please have a word with your Nike connects to get a retro for the Air Max 94 and the Huarache Plus 94!
Haha I remember Jordan 1 lows at the outlet like breds and metallic blue and white, I’ll never like them and thought the Koston’s were weird when they came out but they actually grew on me a little. I wanted those air max deluxe as well never got a pair of them
boulevard drinks 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
That Packer 992 is awesome
As a Bostonian I never knew they were called power phase. They were and always will be yum yums
🗣 8yrs!!!! Money must wasn’t an issue.
Which shoe ya love how it looks on foot but kills your feet.
This is a hard watch
I’m definitely not ashamed to boil a hotdog with chili. They come in clutch when you need something quick and don’t have time to make a proper meal. Not something you want to do too often though 😂
I still have the where's waldo akomplice shirt Welty is talking about in my closet...
🤣🤣🤣 I remember the George forman
South Dining hall at UConn is the GOAT
Welty is the reason I have high standards.
Here a year later and the Packer 992 is up +$1K. Great giveaway!
For me a shoe I really like but on feet I don't is the Forum 84 I love the side silhouette, but top down it looks weird.
Love all the stories guys. One of the more entertaining episodes. What sneaker have you resold that you would love to get back?
man said glizzy craving
JLP with the John Elliott look book lol
PG Knows didn’t get his weekly shoutout! Or did I miss it?
Hasbullah size! 🤣😂🤣
We always hear about the big collabs, but any recent under the radar GRs that stood out to you?
Please retro the air zoom citizen the blue and white please didn't have it in 99 but always wish they comeback
My wife found Essential early in 2020. It’s the best water. If you haven’t tried it go buy some. It’s worth the money. No I’m not a sponsor. Lol
I can't stand the insoles of VANS, they just dismantle and gets so uncomfortable to wear (even though the sole is still intact.
I like the nike Yeezys and the zebras
The excitement on joes face when hears the words “mini hotdogs”
I like your Chanele Men
Never boiled hot dogs, always grilled, pan fried and baked.
What is going on hahaha never thought I’d hear the guys talking about route 22 in jersey as I’m driving home on it
when Joe goes to a game at Gampel, im going
Liquid death is awesome
What do you do with all of your sneaker boxes from your personal collection? Do you store them in their own space? Break them down to save on room? Keep sneakers in them? Throw them away?
Halfcabs back more than ever
Never left
@3:50 AAAAYYYYYYYYYYY YYOOOOOOOOOO PAUSE!
What's the best shoes you guys got as a youth
700v2 is like the 700v1 went through puberty, got through college and landed a nice internship
The Foam Runner is a shoe that top-down, just looks SO TERRIBLE lol. The side view looks really cool and unique, but that top down view SMH… lol. That opening is soooo wide and looks hideous haha
Joey glizzys 😂
What sneaker would you guys really like to see come back ago.
As a kid born 89 Jordan the goat ge gave us so many moments I had cherry 12s as kid and life was wonderful ❤
Might be the first podcast where nobody has brought up PG
Just copped the “Georgetown” ‘85s from eBay, can’t wait to get them in hand
One of these guys is a big Tom sachs guy.
Lol that girl probably wanted to do more than that in his room.
This episode bordered on “no subject” despite having one in the title and I’m alright with that. Loved the vibes, great conversations. Good week.
I love hearing Joe talk and get excited about telling stories but yet again Brendan has to cut in....
Wait so Welty has resold shoes????
don't care for welty's tone when he says "Final Fantasy". You put some respect on Square Enix my good sir!
I hate that Air Jordan 11s look so goofy on my feet🤦🏾♂️
Where is Marc echo?
Air max 93 look like loaf of bread on feet
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.
