HANDS DOWN the best top Sneakers list I’ve seen so far. Lots of respect for JD to be open to all brands and admire the true art (and not simply the Jumpman or Swoosh labelling). Keep it up brother. ❤❤
Pretty solid list, loved your criteria and the variety. Out of all the great sneakers/fashion review channels out there, this year you have definitely become my favourite. All the clips, the insights and how comfortable you seem in front of the camera are top notch. Congrats man, very thankful for the content and looking forward to next year!
Lists made by youtubers like you and SeanGo are such a better watch experience compared to the complex one. Bunch of old people living in their own bubble putting all nikes and jordans when Nike was clearly behind Adidas, NB, and asics this year. One of them arguing for his own limited ass shoe that no one knew or cares for to be in the list and telling the crowd to stfu for disagreeing. It was a mess. This was a great list.
Those Ronnie Fieg Sambas are my SoY. The materials are insanely nice as you said. Glad to see you including the Wales Bonner collab. I am not a huge Adidas fan but those are always fire as well.
I’m sorry but I’m just not a fan of these new model new balances they look like something people wear in Williamsburg NY…..the classics 997, 574, 577 etc are clean….these new models look boring and gentrified.
No lie, best sneaker list of 2023 by a country mile. Excellent content here! I’ve fallen in love with my pair of the Action Bronson NBs and was also very pleasantly surprised by Asics this year. Keep up the premium content!
Wow your top 10 is not it at all. Definitely disagree. Your number one shoe tho I can see why. I love the action Bronson. But Jea tips deserve to be top 10.
@philrodmell7792 I agree. Not trying talk bad about the Jae Tips collaboration: he brought my attention to Saucony and it feels like they already had this vibe, or has he been on their design team a while? Also, it feels like Wortherspoon has done similar design for Nike but without the hype. They all take me back to De La Soul. Maybe everything is just timing or people just tired of the same names and celebrate the up and coming of you know you know’s I like both designers .. just saying ..
GREAT TOP 20, GREAT CHANNEL. THANK U FOR ALL THE HARD WORK U HAVE PUT IN THIS YEAR JOSH U ARE NO DOUBT ONE OF THE BEST OUT THERE. HAVE A WONDERFULL CHRISTMAS AND NEW YEAR . KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK IN 2024. LOVE FROM LONDON UK . 🎅✌🌍💙.
Interesting list - especially because you once said on tape you hated the first half of the year 😂 Good to see you found some stuff you can like! Let's see if there are some matches with our list coming at the end of the year 📈
Solid list . Love you put this high the 990v6 lapis , the AJ4SB and the kith Clark’s samba . I would have put more NB and less adidas and ASICS in the list however
The sandy liang collab was def not the first salomon sneaker to get insane resale prices. The Broken Arm XT-4 from 4 years ago comes to mind. And basically all of the more "OG" colourways of the Xt-6 that were unavailable when salomon got really popular
I can’t front that I’ve always loved the Travis Scott lows , I know they played out now but I still think they look amazing. It’s true to the OG lows and always have super dope colorways
Ps. Btw someone needs to invent a cleaner for those crepe soles. I have a pair of Ronnie Fieg Clark's and I love them, but that sole seems impossible to clean.
I loved your list! Our tastes seem very similar. Here's my top 10: 10. New Balance 991v2 x Stone Island 9. Salomon ACS+ OG x Lorenz.OG (one can dream, right?) 8. Jordan 3 x J Balvin 7. New Balance 1906R x Aime Leon Dore Jade 6. Adidas Clarks 8th Street Samba 5. Nike Air Max 95 x Corteiz Black and Pink 4. Asics Gel-2160 x Above The Clouds "Cream / Shamrock Green" 3. Salomon XT-6 Expanse x Sandy Liang 2. Nike Air Max Plus x A-Cold-Wall House Blue 1. NB 990v6 x Action Bronson "Baklava"
Great list. Better than most. Almost picked up the Action's. I like those new Teddy S new orange/black color way which just released. Unfortunately I only have one of those on your list #12 in the blue. My faves are #20 stone island. The Noctas are growing on me. Also #15, #13 (personally I prefer those to the Jaritos) #12 (which I have) #9, #6. #5 are clean, but definitely not worth $1000, #4 (probably my favorite) #3 Cortez (did you notice there was a lot of hate for those on hypebeast ?) and #1. The others are cool but not my style. Are you going to try to get the kithmas Clark's sambas that are releasing soon ?
Great list, Josh! A lot of different variety. Those 990V6 cream is such a sleeper colorway! Teddy is killing it with NB! The SB 4 and Lapis Lazuli are my favorite pairs this year as well. Been in heavy rotation.
This is why we appreciate you JD. You talk about all brands and not just Jordan and Nikes. Great list! The lapis lazuli v6 is also my sneaker of the year!
Man that's a pretty strong list as always lotssss of varieties not just hype shoes, my guesses were almost right for the SB 4s and the kith sambas lol I was not expecting the corteiz on ur list at all but its a good looking pair for sure, wouldn't agree at all for the new balance at 1 but hey its ur list. However for me I would say my top 3 in no particular order cdg 1906, Wales bonner black and the kith sambas. Im praying to get it on Christmas pls bless me kith and give me a W
Not my favorite year when it comes to sneakers. But there were some fun pairs like the Sb dunk low Born and raised, adidas wales boner samba (white and black one) sb4 chrome Vomero 5 . Pretty unique list josh !
Love all of you for putting your top lists together for 2023. I’m never going to agree with any of you as these lists are personal. I appreciate the effort you all take to put the list together for us to enjoy and debate. My top shoe is the reimagined 3 - just too clean.
Really loved the list, especially the nod to the 990v6 Cream. It was such a solid GR and the v6 is top-notch from a comfort standpoint. So bummed I decided not to pick up the 8th Street Samba. Hoping I can hit on the new colorways that are releasing on Christmas!
Excellent picks & content bro! Appreciate you. Agree with Lapiz lazuli at the top such an iconic shoe, has the Wotherspoon 97 vibe of lots of colours you wouldn't conventionally pair together but they work so well.
I would put the Kith Clarks Sambas at the top. Besides being an all-around special sneaker, what puts it above all else this year was the accessibility. Anyone and everyone could have gotten any and all colorways they wanted. But in any case, great list. Always loved the variety of your collection. Also a bit surprised the Reimagined 3s were so high on your list, considering I think you said before that you don’t wear it that much because it wasn’t your vibe or something like that.
I would have considered adding the Nike Ambush Uptempo lows. I think Yoon knocked it out of the with these. Glad you added the Sandy Liang's. My favorite pickup of the year.
HANDS DOWN the best top Sneakers list I’ve seen so far. Lots of respect for JD to be open to all brands and admire the true art (and not simply the Jumpman or Swoosh labelling). Keep it up brother. ❤❤
Thank you so much
Great list not dominated by Jordan’s/ travis Scott , keep up the great content!! Love from 🏴
Fr 🎉
1. Asics Kayano 14 ‘Cream Black’
2. New Balance 990v6 ‘Lapiz Lazuli’
3. Nike SB Dunk Low ‘Rammellzee’
4. Jordan 3 White Cement
5. Nike SB Dunk Low Power-puff Girls ‘Buttercup’
Cortiez AM95 Gutta Green is no1 for me. The Bronson's are decent but I don't get the hype tbh.
I think the Corteiz were way more hyped than the Bronsons , but I just love wearing the Bronsons
Easily the best and most respectable top sneakers of the year list I’ve seen. I appreciate your videos and your great taste 👏🏽
I think KITH Samba is the SOTY. Not just for execution and comfort but also for perfectly capturing the 2023 sneaker trend as a whole
That is a great point tbh, yes easily could
Have been the soty
Pretty solid list, loved your criteria and the variety. Out of all the great sneakers/fashion review channels out there, this year you have definitely become my favourite. All the clips, the insights and how comfortable you seem in front of the camera are top notch. Congrats man, very thankful for the content and looking forward to next year!
This comment means a lot to me, thank you very much !

sold my SB4s to get a double up on baklava v6s. I can't stop wearing them, insanely great pair.
SOTY
I’m sorry but I’m just not a fan of these new model new balances they look like something people wear in Williamsburg NY…..the classics 997, 574, 577 etc are clean….these new models look boring and gentrified.
I’m a big fan of the new ones as well, NB just one of the best brands
new balance is always done very well just these look more like exercise shoes and not lifestyle classics @@JoshDominic
Best and most thorough list i have seen. Nice variety versus a full list of Jordans.
I love your videos but I put new balance stone island in my top 10 👍🏼
Those are sickkkkkk, low-key I feel like next year I might regret ranking them at only 20
No lie, best sneaker list of 2023 by a country mile. Excellent content here! I’ve fallen in love with my pair of the Action Bronson NBs and was also very pleasantly surprised by Asics this year. Keep up the premium content!
Thanks a lot Jonathan !
Solid list. The baklava is definitely 🔥
Love the list. These were end of year sneakers, but my SoY would be the samba Kithmas multi color stripes and the 1998 pack from Joe Freshgoods
Best list I've seen, not just pure hype, actual good shoes
In my opinion, the Nike SB Dunk Low Born x Raised is also one of the top 2023 sneakers
Wow your top 10 is not it at all. Definitely disagree. Your number one shoe tho I can see why. I love the action Bronson. But Jea tips deserve to be top 10.
Personally think the Travis effect is done in terms of actual design. When are ppl gonna admit the newer colorways are dead ?
AJ 4 SB boring. More for hypebeast. Gr8 vid👍🏽
Seriously Josh, no Kobes? No Powerpuff dunks?
original top i liked it. I'm feed up of the same sneakers all the time j1, j4...
Now that I’m looking back at it. It was a good year for sneakers
Bro forgot rammellzee dunks?.?
I felt like there were better SBs this year but those are great too
@@JoshDominic I mean it’s your list so you do you but personally I feel the history and the beauty of those dunks pushes them over the top :)
what is full name on the new balance 1906 r ? they sick
New balance jfg 1998 intro is the best for me
Great list bro! Excited for 2024!
I agree on the action Bronson. It’s so comfortable and surprisingly matches with whatever you put on. I just have them by the door at this point.
Yea man those never leave the rotation
is there a top comfort sneakers list for 2023 for everyday work and casual use not 10 running sneakers that arent comfortable for everyday wear?
I could Make one
@philrodmell7792 I agree. Not trying talk bad about the Jae Tips collaboration: he brought my attention to Saucony and it feels like they already had this vibe, or has he been on their design team a while?
Also, it feels like Wortherspoon has done similar design for Nike but without the hype. They all take me back to De La Soul. Maybe everything is just timing or people just tired of the same names and celebrate the up and coming of you know you know’s
I like both designers .. just saying ..

Thank you so much man. Wish you the best in 2024 as well
I am 100% subscribing. This is a GREAT list from a guy not being paid off for content.
Just a guy who loves sneakers. Thanks for the sub
I would have included the Adidas Campus x Bad Bunny Chalky Brown and the Nike Dunk SB Born X Raised.
Love your content greetings from Costa Rica
Surprised I didn’t see the reverse grinch on this list
Interesting list - especially because you once said on tape you hated the first half of the year 😂 Good to see you found some stuff you can like! Let's see if there are some matches with our list coming at the end of the year 📈
Looking forward to your list as well
990 V6 is out of this world tbh, try it yourself for a day
Solid list . Love you put this high the 990v6 lapis , the AJ4SB and the kith Clark’s samba . I would have put more NB and less adidas and ASICS in the list however
I hit on the kthmas sambas. My first pair. Really looking forward to wearing them
Awesome
Those Nocta glides were super comfortable, fwiw. I don't think enough people talked about how comfy it was.
The sandy liang collab was def not the first salomon sneaker to get insane resale prices. The Broken Arm XT-4 from 4 years ago comes to mind. And basically all of the more "OG" colourways of the Xt-6 that were unavailable when salomon got really popular
Pretty much agree w/ your top three.. I passed on Corteiz guttas.. shoulda bought then. Hoping they would drop in the states.
If you can make a best pickups of 2023, would be great to see inspiration of your favorite pickups (from previous years as well).
Jordan 4 SB? You buggin 😂 this list is not it.
Kith sambas / aj1 washed black / vomero 5s those were my favorite this yr
Honestly such a good list. Josh got it right!
Love my 990v6s!! Have way too many
Love your list bro and hope you can reach to 100K subcribers soon !!!!
🙏
List was butt cheeks 😂😂😂
Great list, nice seeing some other brands than Nike or Jordan. Missing there? Saucony Crystal caves.
Balvins at 17 is crazy...
Wanted to give him his props on a great list but had to exit the video after the travis scott rank....smh
I can’t front that I’ve always loved the Travis Scott lows , I know they played out now but I still think they look amazing. It’s true to the OG lows and always have super dope colorways
Doernbecher Vomero 5s were special. The Supersonics were a decent shout as well.
Great taste, loved to watch your top 20, easily One of the best UA-cam sneaker channels 🙏
man love some asics lately but my favorite are new balance\carhartt collab
Those were pretty nice as well no doubt
The AMM 5s deserve a spot
Great list! hard year to put a list together, so many smaller companies stepped up and big brands took a step back.
J3 Balvin at 18? Below pony hair Samba?
For me yes
Action for the win
Very good list. But I think some of the Bodega collabs from this year should have made the list
I swear if the sb4 is #1 on this list ima have to unfollow you
It wasn’t 😅
Ps. Btw someone needs to invent a cleaner for those crepe soles. I have a pair of Ronnie Fieg Clark's and I love them, but that sole seems impossible to clean.
Yea I wish there was a way to Keep those soles clean
If you figure it out lmk. Also curious if anyone with a chalk white pair of the Fieg's finds them to have a clean green tint.
Great list !
love the lapis lazuli as number #1 hopefully will get them soon 🤞🏽
I am so mad at all of that
Nocta Glide 🔥
Fire vid bros
I loved your list! Our tastes seem very similar.
Here's my top 10:
10. New Balance 991v2 x Stone Island
9. Salomon ACS+ OG x Lorenz.OG (one can dream, right?)
8. Jordan 3 x J Balvin
7. New Balance 1906R x Aime Leon Dore Jade
6. Adidas Clarks 8th Street Samba
5. Nike Air Max 95 x Corteiz Black and Pink
4. Asics Gel-2160 x Above The Clouds "Cream / Shamrock Green"
3. Salomon XT-6 Expanse x Sandy Liang
2. Nike Air Max Plus x A-Cold-Wall House Blue
1. NB 990v6 x Action Bronson "Baklava"
Wow great list as well, the Above the clouds 2160 deserved an honourable mention for sure
Great list. Better than most. Almost picked up the Action's. I like those new Teddy S new orange/black color way which just released.
Unfortunately I only have one of those on your list #12 in the blue.
My faves are #20 stone island. The Noctas are growing on me. Also #15, #13 (personally I prefer those to the Jaritos) #12 (which I have) #9, #6. #5 are clean, but definitely not worth $1000, #4 (probably my favorite) #3 Cortez (did you notice there was a lot of hate for those on hypebeast ?) and #1. The others are cool but not my style. Are you going to try to get the kithmas Clark's sambas that are releasing soon ?
Yes will be going for those kith sambas
Great list, Josh! A lot of different variety. Those 990V6 cream is such a sleeper colorway! Teddy is killing it with NB!
The SB 4 and Lapis Lazuli are my favorite pairs this year as well. Been in heavy rotation.
Fire bro, youve def put me on different brands I wasnt considering before. I appreciate your hard work
No Chris Paul Jordan 1 Lows?!
Weren’t top 20 worthy imo
Missed chance to do a top 23 because it’s 2023
I thought about that but then realized im going to have to keep increasing the list by 1 forever if I do this 😂
First vid I’ve ever seen from u; alr know ima love ur channel
This is why we appreciate you JD. You talk about all brands and not just Jordan and Nikes. Great list! The lapis lazuli v6 is also my sneaker of the year!
Thanks man
Hal Studios Samba> Wales Bonner Samba
great list, great guy, great vid, great channel
Man that's a pretty strong list as always lotssss of varieties not just hype shoes, my guesses were almost right for the SB 4s and the kith sambas lol I was not expecting the corteiz on ur list at all but its a good looking pair for sure, wouldn't agree at all for the new balance at 1 but hey its ur list. However for me I would say my top 3 in no particular order cdg 1906, Wales bonner black and the kith sambas. Im praying to get it on Christmas pls bless me kith and give me a W
Good luck on the Kith bro
What about the Jacquemus JF1? Don’t tell me you liked them less than most of the 10-20 places………
I LOVEEEEEE the Jacquemus and wear them all the time but for me they might be top 25 just missed out
#1 is my SOTY too! Great picks
Kith Asics 1130 in scarab
One of the best ASICS GRs of the year easily
Not my favorite year when it comes to sneakers. But there were some fun pairs like the Sb dunk low Born and raised, adidas wales boner samba (white and black one) sb4 chrome Vomero 5 . Pretty unique list josh !
Thanks as always Max
Josh I wish you would do a review of the Salomon ACS Pro sometime.
…I need advice on sizing.
Go TTS on those. They aren’t as tight as the XT-6
geezer those sean’s are terrible , his a top G but these are not… are you getting paid to say that because i rem a vid with you and sean!
Absolutely not I loved those Seans from the moment I saw them
@@JoshDominic fair play but they flopped in the UK like all other sean pairs apart from the air max…
I agree there dire 🇺🇸
Well rounded sneaker list 👏🏼
Great list but I would have put jjjjound 991s on there even though they are so similar to the brown 992s
They nice but yea to me they were so similar to previous Jjjjjound NBs that I wasn’t wowed by them
Love all of you for putting your top lists together for 2023. I’m never going to agree with any of you as these lists are personal. I appreciate the effort you all take to put the list together for us to enjoy and debate. My top shoe is the reimagined 3 - just too clean.
Yes the lists are all personal and that’s the fun part, just debating what the best sneakers are
Really loved the list, especially the nod to the 990v6 Cream. It was such a solid GR and the v6 is top-notch from a comfort standpoint. So bummed I decided not to pick up the 8th Street Samba. Hoping I can hit on the new colorways that are releasing on Christmas!
I couldn’t deny the beauty of that cream 990v6
Excellent picks & content bro! Appreciate you. Agree with Lapiz lazuli at the top such an iconic shoe, has the Wotherspoon 97 vibe of lots of colours you wouldn't conventionally pair together but they work so well.
Those Lapiz Lazuli are works of art
I respect and love this list. While I dont agree with the order, I love that its yours. Much respects
Thank you
I would put the Kith Clarks Sambas at the top. Besides being an all-around special sneaker, what puts it above all else this year was the accessibility. Anyone and everyone could have gotten any and all colorways they wanted. But in any case, great list. Always loved the variety of your collection. Also a bit surprised the Reimagined 3s were so high on your list, considering I think you said before that you don’t wear it that much because it wasn’t your vibe or something like that.
The accessibility is such a great point. It’s not often that such an incredible such can be purchased by anyone so easily
we need a kith clarks jjjjjjjound ALD JF bodega Salehe Bembury all in one collab samba
@@amonpeideng1545 As long as it’s released by pre-order.
I would have considered adding the Nike Ambush Uptempo lows. I think Yoon knocked it out of the with these. Glad you added the Sandy Liang's. My favorite pickup of the year.
Sandys were tooooo good
Happy Holidays. Congrats on your soon to be 💯k 🎉
Thank you thank you
Agreed with this list better than complex’s! SB4s & Sambas for me
Tbh it’s pretty easy to be better than complex’s Nike/Jordan only list 😅
🔥 versatile list!
Them soamon pink bro
Such clean content
Best list so far 🔥🔥🔥
Best list I’ve seen this year!!
Great list!!!
Great list! 🔥🔥
