I usually listen to the podcast in the car, and sometimes my 6-year-old would be in the car while I play it, but I never knew she was listening. Today I played this episode on TV, and she came and went “Is this the complex sneaker podcast?” I went “yeah” and then she went “Which one is Welty?” 😂 Welty you just got a 6 year old fan!

Okay now she’s doing complex sneakers podcast trivia to me: “Who’s the one on the left?” “Who’s the one went to Miami for the exhibition?” “Who’s the one always says you’re listening you’re watching the complex sneakers podcast?” 🤦♂️

I was hit by a car and injured badly, so I have been laid up for almost 6 months, this podcast and FSR have been a source of joy and stimulation for me. Thanks y'all. (Now go harder on botters and scalpers)

What a wholesome show. Love the energy on stage and watching JLP and Brendan’s face react to whatever craziness Welty is saying haha Love you guys! Keep making content
I agree w Welty… prolly 10 better new balances this year than the stray rats.
17:08 Welty: “These ones, very rare…” JLP: (skeptically) “Are they…?” Welty and Brendan proceed to pile on just how rare they are. Lol - love these exchanges. Reminds me of moments between me and my friends, and is a perfect example of why this pod is so good. ❤
Rest In Peace, Eddy. Thank you for dedicating that time to him, gentlemen.
RIP Eddie, nice story Welty you made a grown man cry and feel like I knew em..thanks for all that you guys do. Blessings to you all ❤️🔥🙏🏼
Welty always has the best opinions no matter how hard Dunn and Joe tries to make him sound insane
my most heard & favorite podcast of the year. thank you guys for curating the best sneaker podcast. i wouldn't know anything about the culture if it wasn't for your detailed insights and discussions.
I can't binge any episodes because I haven't missed any😮💨

I couldn’t stop laughing when Brendan mentioned the method to shorten the samba tongue cause that was literally the first thing I did once my pair came in. Love them
YES. COME TO AUSTRALIA! WOULD LOVE TO SEE YOU ALL.
JLP’s “AB-SO--LUTELY” was legendary 😂 20:10

I enjoy the knowledge and information this group provides. And on there individual or separate shows.
What a Year! Thanks to all 3 of you for a great learning experience and growing experience for me. I cant get enough of this show, and all the others that you all do. I'll be patiently waiting for this to start back up again next year and cant wait to see what comes with it... Great job to all 3 of you and Happy/Safe Holidays!
JLP is too funny, dude is the real reason why you gotta watch over listening 😭
Matt Welty claims to not be a gatekeeper while gatekeeping like it's nothing 🤣 "objectively better" Keep up the good work boys!
New balance absolutely killed it this year
Shout out to Welty from Melbourne, Australia!
JUST LOVE NB BODEGA 9060😍😍😍
New listener, first time commenter… love this episode. Love the banter and love the memories of your friend at the end.
thanks for this year, guys!
best episode ever, love seeing yalls picks
Happy New Year Matt, Joe and Brendan. Thanks for a great podcast. I always have to watch the video version on YT over the audio-only version. Looking forward to new episodes in 2023.
One of the beat shows of the year. Thanks for a year of great content. By the way I like Welty list the best. Reason why list reachable if you really want.
Happy to see Dunne’s Australian accent make an appearance.
JORDAN 1S LOST IN FOUND 💯🔥, HAPPY HOLIDAYS GUYS SORRY FOR YOUR LOST GUYS,GOD 🙏 YOU GUYS AND LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING YOU GUYS NEXT YEAR 2023🙏🙏
Great episode and a great finale for the year. We can all agree it was the year of New Balance, I grabbed a pair of the NB 2002R in the Marblehead colour and they are such a great shoe. Merry Christmas everyone 🎄

From GRs to collabs 2002rs had the best year out of any silhouette.
Great season. Y’all stay keeping me entertained especially when I won the Brooklyn off white AF1s😂
The 2002r protection pack .. the pink and artic grey purple are my favorite GR pairs for the year
Beams x Paperboy 920s, Bodega 9060s, all the JFGs and other 990v3s are better than that Stray Rats shoe.
brendan with the bar 54:34 i have more nike sneakers than you 😂
These episodes with intense debate are the best!
This is the best vlog I have seen you put out yet! I love getting to know everyone! Tom sachs gps shoe of the year for me! Having the gps drop in kohl’s was sneaker moment of the year
The subtle “that’s cap” that Joe said in response to Matt not hating on shoes this year 🤣
Nah joe la budden looking ahh boi 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 , great episode as always 🙏🏽🔥
Merry Christmas guys. Wishing you all the best!
So I was just listening to the pod on Spotify. Had to switch to the video as soon as I got to 54:33 LOL truly a goated response
best podcast period. going to miss it during the break. 3 goats
I wish Welty would tell me what my personal favorites are.
Wanted to say sorry for your loss!!!! Sounds like a amazing family member!!! But I wanted to say, I appreciate everyone on screen and behind the screen. I love shoes, don't have alot. But you guys inspire me to think out side the box. I honestly think the shoe game has grown so much because of the team at complex!!! Much love from Ohio!!! Shout out to Dad !!! Would of loved to see you one here!!! Till the next episode guys !!!! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
i agree with welty, mt580 stray rats isn’t even a top 10 new balance of the year.. i can name 10 nb’s easily that were better
Merry Christmas to Complex&whole FSRmy from Poland 🇵🇱👍💪🔥

Should I give my adress,or what?Im suprised🤯😁
Joe I totally agree.I was hating on the lost and found and when you compare it to the other versions they are like the best combination of the OG with the storytelling
Great episode! I really enjoy hearing all of your opinions on your year in review. My questions for your guys: In the upcoming year of 23 will we see New Balance keep bring the heat and really start to challenge Nike/Jordan for the Top Spot in a year they should dominate? Happy holiday fellas and thanks for bringing great information and entertainment throughout the year!
Welty just named my favourite GRs of the year in order
Perfect content.
This boy joe got Victor Sweets fit at the end of ‘Four Brothers’ when he fights Bobby on the ice
I came back from watching the Sneaker of the Year video and honestly, their personal top 5 are better than the complex top 10.
This is way better than the actual complex SOTY panel
Proud to be that guy that loves both the Travis Scott collabs and recent Samba collabs (Jonah Hill ones are amazing)
Sorry for your guys loss. Going to miss the show, happy holidays!
You lads need to come to Melbourne, Australia. Home of Upthere store and other great sneaker stores. Organise it! A live podcast somewhere, would be awesome.
Welty referencing the Nintendo 64 kids when Joe announced his #1.. now you can know one of those kids watches all the complex sneakers content. I’d definitely recreate the reaction if I got a pair too.. Shoutout 🎅🏼🎁
I got the supreme Nike shox in red and white and I love em
My sister recently got those white and red kith sambas that released over the summer. those were pretty clean tbh
Brendan! How dare you say you've never seen Christmas Vacation! 🤦🏽♂️😂
Zion Jordan one is a elite sneaker. Materials different and theme are really good.
Worst take dunne not knowing they were talking about JFG new balances
I caught the black on black 3m human race sambas at an outlet…. Fire!!!
Joe will rock a white beanie and hoodie combo, but scoff at pair of white kicks🤣
Cooked shoes are sentimental shoes, and I keep my sons Nikes💙 he’s 4 and would love to get him basketball shoes next, but kids shoes are a different world 🗺️
I want a full 15 minute UFC segment at the beginning of every episode with an angle of Dunne in the corner the whole time.
@Complex where can we submit questions for a chance for these great gentlemen to answer ?
Shout out Welty for not being afraid to say Merry Christmas.
Totally with Joe and Brendan on the Stray Rats 580 but i prefer the other cw
Nice vid
I think the SOTY should be the CNCPTS x Air Max 1 "Heavy" It was back in March and by now we've all forgotten the massive play that shoe got. The design is amazing. The quality is amazing. The release reached the PEOPLE. It was one of the best community moments in sneakers this year. It's not even my favorite. I dont even have them. I just feel based on observation of impact, that one did its thing and checks all the boxes.
bring on the extra episode!
Lol I work in sneakers and I was the only person at my workplace who knew what the scarab TNs were, had to grab a pair I'm likely to double up while they're so cheap
What do yall think about the jaden smith new balance
I like the CPFM sorry but if they are gonna talk about “neck breakers” - also idk if I’m going to do it but I saw someone cut them and they look pretty dope trimmed
I dont think the SOTY can be something SO limited. I haven't seen a single non-celeb wearing OW x LV - AF1. The shoe is great. Virgil is great, but I think this is forced to honor Virgil. The shoe is not SOTY. It came and went and nobody is talking about it anymore.
Please come down to Laced in Brisbane Australia!
jlp looking like he been up for 48 hrs straight! Get some sleep son
The Samba will always be more popular at the same time as a World Cup ⚽️
The samba is popular rn because it’s soccer (football) season rn and I always see players wear fresh sambas. Factor in the World Cup and you have a reason why they’re sold out
Lets make the Christmas Special happen pls!!!
@JLP Forzen Lake from Bath and body works is the best smelling candle
Lost and foundz of course
Gino Iannucci had a Samba pro model just come out as well
is it possible to just turn on youtube notifications on for the podcast itself?
We need a Bad Bunny Samba 🎉 You heard it here First 🎉😂😂
You could do an ad with kids trying to catch a glimpse of Santa and he's stuck in the chimney with the lost and founds on holding him up with his bag over his shoulder
The world cup definitely helped the samba risen
56:54 Shots fired
Surprised no one had the Nike Air Force 1 Low Green Brooklyn pair. Also, think the Zion's should've at least got an honorable mention. Joe had the best top 5 list. Pretty similar to mines.
Fire 🔥 red Aj3
The disrespect from them not knowing national lampoons
For me will be Jordan 2 my favorite J’s have to go with lost an found 1’s never had a pair of 1’s an I hit 💯
12:01 Lace Lock!!!!
Sea Salt 990v3s were my favorite out of the Teddy Santis 16 👌🏾
I'm from Melbourne, Australia (where Upthere Store is located). Please come down for a meet and greet!!
If I could LV those LV AF1s it would be black Joe is right best one. NB 9060 for me Bodega and JFG Chicago exclusive babyshower
Best shoe was Maniere 4s dont argue!
I agree the LV AF1 is the best shoe of the year but specifically the brown/cream check. That’s the only one that’s feels iconic.
