  • The Complex Sneakers Podcast is co-hosted by Joe La Puma, Brendan Dunne, and Matt Welty. This week, they talk about the ups and downs of Air Jordan retros over the past three decades, from good pairs like the “Grape” Air Jordan 5s to forgettable pairs like the “Crimson” Air Jordan 3s. Also, Wetly relives some sneaker backdoor sagas from his Foot Locker days, Joe breaks down the SWAT tactic, and the group celebrates over a platter of glizzies.

    The DTRT 3s are THE shoe that got me into sneakers around 06 07 when I was 16 I saw Chris brown on the cover of DUB magazine wearing them with the matching hoodie and I thought my god what Jordan’s are those. Got em a few years later and still have em to this day

    What would have been wrong with just offering an '85 high Chicago colour way? I don't understand why that idea needed to be adapted and altered at all. Jordan are overthinking this stuff. Good silhouette, good colour way, use good materials. Very simple.
