A lot of the early retros you guys rattled off definitely pull at the heartstrings of those that used to collect in the early to mid 2000s. I can remember days and even late nights on the Sole Collector forums discussing and moderating every single thread of these beloved colorways. The game was so pure then and people actually wanting to discuss these shoes from top to bottom. It really brings back some good memories which is why I have also kept a lot of those shoes from back then today.
Man it was a time to be alive! No kids, no wife, no responsibilities but classes and a job. Lol. All those 2000's releases bring back memories. Especially those Infrared 6's, white cement 4's, Olive 9's man the list goes on and on
Anyone hating on Welty isn’t an OG listener of the podcast, EVERY single member of the team brings their on opinions/strengths to the table to make it a diversified & interesting show to watch.
I love this show !!!! This is my relax time and I always love the points all three of you bring up!!!!!!keep up the great works guys ! You are greatly appreciated 😊
This is the beauty of sneakers you can look at them and they can be a time machine or you can wear them and just enjoy them. I love the fact that I have relationships and conversations based off sneakers and there's just nothing like it.
I would love to see the Mist 4s or Do the Right Thing 3s re release. Jordan Brand just has a hard time getting the color and materials right a lot of times.
01-02 are stand out years because Jordan was back in the league. So unlike 99-00 where retros seemed like the end of a era(15’s on sale for like 20 bucks) you got the 16 which got love and then all these retro’s on top of that. It went from retros being pretty cool, to becoming must haves.
Kick game properrrrr ! Straight into it ! Really enjoy when it’s just the three of y’all ! Some how ended up with two pairs of the SF AF1. Enjoyed it for the time being. Would love a Suitcase 17 again! 2000 Black infrared greatest sneaker of all time ! Really loved the nostalgia of this one ! Great conversations, amazing job, guys !
I think the first look pictures hurt the Reimagined Royals.. the shade of blue was so light, but in hand the shade of Royal Blue is true to the OG. I copped a pair and I’m happy I did.
For it to be a "reimagined" its not just to be pre - yellowed. But its a reinterpretation of and OG colorway, like the leather black cement 4s that are coming next year.
bring action bronson! and welty great that you mention...those new balance baklava 1906 chito had on i been chasing those down since I first seen them months ago 🔥
I love Welty, but his take on the TMNT shelltoes is so narrow sighted. These "pop culture" shoes are way more tastefully done compared to any simpsons collab. They reference the original comic books and even come in packaging resembling the original toys. For people who grew up on that franchise and toys, it is super nostalgic and looks well executed. It's akin to the Ronnie Fieg X-Men asics.
“Reimagined” and “Retro” are basically synonyms in regard to sneakers. When you think about all the changes and such that have happened to 3s prior to the “reimagined” ones. Or when you look at like for instance Jordan Playoff 8s.. not this newest release but prior or the Aquas.. It’s just lingo to market to whoever is willing to buy it.
I'm pretty sure that early marketing for the L&F called it a Chicago Reimagined, then closer to the release all the marketing switched to lost and found
The Patton leather AJ1 breads black and red where part of the reimagined series so it was relevant before the lost and found AJ1 Chicago's at least that's what I've heard from alot of sneaker youtubers
Patent Bred 1s and Lost & Founds were always said to be a part of the reimagined line by everyone except NIKE. But notice how they gave EA to people who missed on Patents and Reimagined 3s, for the Reimagined Royals. They all are obviously related n
This is one of May fav shows…but, TBT-it’s like La’Puma is hanging out with friends he knew for a long time, and have to tell ppl…”..no guys, they are alright…knew them for years…”
If you could bring back one old Air Jordan release, what would it be?
Thank goodness the military’s are finally coming out…
PEAPOD 8S
Laser 4
I've always loved the look of cherry wood 16s
The Jordan 5 Laser from 07🙌🏾
The Jordan’s 17th with the suitcase

Definitely brought back a lot
Of memories of those younger days. Spending hours looking at Eastbay, the back pages of Slam magazine & the forums.
You are a legend. Can't wait for your gratitude 11 video and hopefully comparison to the DMP 11
The end of FSR makes me love and appreciate this show so much more.
Thanks JLP for sharing your 2002 story. That is what collecting is all about.

1000% percent
talk that talk
Every time Welty speaks Dunn interrupts its actually unreal
The first reimagined sneaker is the patent leather bred Jordan 1
So glad this comment was here.

12:14 LULULEMON VANCOUVER REPRESENT!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I would love to see the Mist 4s or Do the Right Thing 3s re release. Jordan Brand just has a hard time getting the color and materials right a lot of times.
This could have been an 8 hour episode and it would have been glorious
44:50 JLP and Dunne back to back with the two most reasonable takes on the Royal Reimagined I’ve seen so far.
Thank you Dunne! We need the og grape and the real fire red (black tongue) 5’s.
Jlp: I’m on demon time
Welty: what does that even mean
Jlp: it’s provocative it gets the people going 😂
I been wanting them flint 9s from the thumbnail for 20+ years, they need to re retro those
I agree, they were my first real sneaker and if the retro them then I’m copping instantly ✅
I had a pair but sadly the sole crumbled on me. Easy cop if they re release
Great episode! Love the nostalgia, like Dunne said simpler times.
The best times
Dunne in the MQ sweater. One of the best writers
For real! WHAT YOU WRITE DUNNE?!
01-02 are stand out years because Jordan was back in the league. So unlike 99-00 where retros seemed like the end of a era(15’s on sale for like 20 bucks) you got the 16 which got love and then all these retro’s on top of that. It went from retros being pretty cool, to becoming must haves.
Great episode for the old heads!! Loved it.
Swear I like when they just together talking. Just them. 🔥
I love both ROYAL AIR JORDAN 1 and the FLYKNIT ROYAL AIR JORDAN 1, my 2 favorite versions!!!!
2000 hands down the best year for Jordan retros! The 5s 6s and of course the 11s ! The price and quality those were the days!
My freshman year! I definitely had infrared 6’s, space jam & cool grey 11’s that school year
Kick game properrrrr ! Straight into it !
Really enjoy when it’s just the three of y’all ! Some how ended up with two pairs of the SF AF1. Enjoyed it for the time being. Would love a Suitcase 17 again! 2000 Black infrared greatest sneaker of all time !
Really loved the nostalgia of this one !
Great conversations, amazing job, guys !
That Royal Jordan 1 should have been an SB collab, with the tech featured on the LA to Chicago
Please dont shut this show down like FSR
Dunne with the MQ hoodie !!
I think the first look pictures hurt the Reimagined Royals.. the shade of blue was so light, but in hand the shade of Royal Blue is true to the OG. I copped a pair and I’m happy I did.
100% agree. I didn't like them until I saw them in person.
Welty was speaking for all the old heads lol 💎🤞
Great banter gentleman, nice analogies
“I’m like the Shyne to your Diddy” is one of Welty’s greatest lines 😂 👏
Biggest Welty JLP Dunne shoe ep would be 🔥 & Thanks for giving us Full Size Run
Probably an unpopular opinion, but i would love to see more Low retros.. not just 1s, 2s and 11s.. I loved my 5, 9 12 lows back in the day...
This was a great episode
I was with you on that nas lyric big dog.. classic!
Loving the respect you guys are putting on the TN lately.
Loved hearing JLP recount 2002!
I need Nike to re-retro Jordan’s 15 through 23 again add that to their reimagined line.
“We’ll put this photo in” thanks Joe 😃
MQ hoodie is FIRE!!
This why I love sneakers. It’s about the person. I love the retro I grew up on but I understand the masses might now. It’s subjective
The reimagined line are the bred patents, the lost & founds, the white cements and the suede royals
and the bred 1 patents are from 2021.
For it to be a "reimagined" its not just to be pre - yellowed. But its a reinterpretation of and OG colorway, like the leather black cement 4s that are coming next year.
candle to the flame Matt
The patent bred Aj1 is the first reimagined and yes lost and found are reimagined.
COMPLEXCON 2023 lesss guuuuu
Hufquake 90’s were 🔥🔥🔥
that sneaker nostalgia got me buying shoes ive always wanted then never wearing them
10000% yes on the Grape 5 OG with Nike Air. Please baby Jesus.
Patent Bred, Satin Breds & Lost & Found Chicagos Are All Reimagined Jordans To Me As Well Just Like The Alternate Breds Coming Out
Black lazer 4s ,mars 4s ,harber blue 3s , pea pod 8s , tour 4s and maize 7s are some shoes I want but feel like wouldnt drop anytime soon
Love your content fam! Keep it up! Can't wait to see what else you make in 2023! 👟🔥🎥
bring action bronson! and welty great that you mention...those new balance baklava 1906 chito had on i been chasing those down since I first seen them months ago 🔥
You think Action is gonna go back on after JLP left him off the Jimmy Fallon list. He begged it with Drake instead, disappointed New Yorker.
The thumbnail excited. (s and 16s are some of my favorite models
Welty thus far is the only person I have heard say they weren't into the new TMNT flick - how very Welty of him.
Air max 90 needs better colorways, The Bacon is the Best Colorway of that shoe ever made. And it’s way more comfortable than the Air max 1
Brendan wearing an MQ hoodie is so elite
The reimagined Jordan 1 royal - just reminds me of the “Jpack” Nike sb dunk high
Someone should make a video of the single best year for Jordan retro releases
love the am90 talk. the Sertigs!
I love Welty, but his take on the TMNT shelltoes is so narrow sighted. These "pop culture" shoes are way more tastefully done compared to any simpsons collab.

Probably biased but the white Kith 990v6 is my shoe of the year personally, Ronnie never misses
Forrest green 14s..bring them back
That’s so odd!! Flint 9s & Bred 16s are two of the top 3 shoes I want retroed. Black Tongue 5s with Nike Air branding tops my list at the No. 1 spot
My first pair of Jordan’s (OG black toe 14s) were purchased using layaway 😂
I did the same thing at a Hibbets for the chrome 8 in 2003
Need those Military Blue AJ4's and the Black Toe AJ1's to retro again
I need them Air Max 120s to drop again. They were a sleeper... wit the 3m spiderweb caging on the side
That Jordan 1 Royal would be really good for skating. The materials are perfect. Just throw the SB logo on them and they will be hyped
What Welty said at the end...
Me: searching ebay for eS Koston K2 from 1999 when I was in high school
Shaq is not from Jersey City lol, he’s from Newark
JLP that 2002 era you just rattled was great time for those of us that have collected since then
Jlp for Lululemon 🤘🏼
MQ hoodie 🔥
Is it worth going both days to complex con or should I just go for one
White infared 6's with nike air on the back and sport blue 6's. Air jordan 5's black tongue 23 on the side.

It’s just lingo to market to whoever is willing to buy it.
daves quality meat air max 90 is probably the best of all time imo
Jordan 1 L&F were the first of the reimagined. It's a Chicago remake which was literally in the description on SNKRS...
First was Patent Bred (2021), then it was L&F (2022)
Welty killed it with the nas ref…sorry dunne…Classic
yo welty you're tripping that new tmnt movie is fiyaaah
Brendan is right, we need Grape 5‘s with Nike heel
Them French blue Jordan 9s 😩😩
Would love to see the Bling 4s re dropped.
I'm pretty sure that early marketing for the L&F called it a Chicago Reimagined, then closer to the release all the marketing switched to lost and found
to answer your question about the name Reimagined, the Reimagined patent Bred release earlier in 2022 before the lost and found
I hope the Sneaker of the Year panel is actually good this year because last year it was a travesty and a waste of time
We need more stories and shoes from significant years from the boys
Shaq on the pod would be lit 🔥! He would def mess with Welty a Lill 😅
Like Dune going to shed a tear. Thank you streetwear Wealthly
Sport blue 6s need a retro wit nike air and white infared 6s and the black tounge fire red 5s
The Patton leather AJ1 breads black and red where part of the reimagined series so it was relevant before the lost and found AJ1 Chicago's at least that's what I've heard from alot of sneaker youtubers
First Re-Imagined shoe was the patent bred 1
How did they miss the AM90 Dave’s quality meats that also retro’d
We need black metallic 5s back out
Please bring the Welty Triggered bar over to this show once FSR retires
We need the Black Grape 5s back...
Jordan Brand Needs To Give Us The Gama 11s already
Patent Bred 1s and Lost & Founds were always said to be a part of the reimagined line by everyone except NIKE. But notice how they gave EA to people who missed on Patents and Reimagined 3s, for the Reimagined Royals. They all are obviously related n
MQ 🔥
Airmax 90’s don’t get enough love these days.
This is one of May fav shows…but, TBT-it’s like La’Puma is hanging out with friends he knew for a long time, and have to tell ppl…”..no guys, they are alright…knew them for years…”
