The 2024 pair are absolutely gorgeous. Fit like a glove. Also I’m an 80’s baby and love the fact these remind me of the remote controller for the OG Nintendo. Same exact colors.
From what I saw online Yachty over-reacted, if you're going to design a shoe then you have to be welcome to criticism, especially from people within the industry. Just because you have a big history in collecting shoes or spent thousands over the years it doesn't automatically mean that your shoe design is incredible.
I personally like the low cut elephant print on the 24’ tow box, to me that’s what makes the shape look super dope 👌🏼👌🏼I never liked the 2018 and 2011 black cements because of the thick cut elephant print.
Complex Con was amazing and I truly believe it’s what people needed at this moment in time. It was something fresh and new with the latest styles everything about it was right on time. One for the books for sure!!
Frequent viewer and supporter, but don’t often leave a comment. However, Welty’s analysis/breakdown of the 2018 and 2024 BC3’s is 100% is so on point, that it deserves my comment. As an owner of both…2024 is better. Blessing in disguise that the shoe market is 💩 right now. Easy double up, just like reimagined 4’s imo. Will haunt people in the years to come for skipping over.
I’m kind of surprised that the Wolf Gray Jordan 5’s never retro’d outside of the golf lows….keep waiting for that drop I think that will be last pair of J’s that will be a must cop for me.
I’ve been into Jordan’s for 12 years. I always look up the OG when a retro is coming back. I love that Nike is doing what they’re doing with retros like the wc3, bc3 and military blues. I’ve always wanted a fresh pair of the OG’s and Nike is trying their best to keep them true to spec. 2018 bc3 never caught my eye but the 2024 😍 subtle print is much better and it’s close as I’ve ever seen it to the OG. The way Welty compared the two is exactly how I feel.
Been wearing retro 3's for 20+ years now. The reimagined is the most comfortable wearable version. The padding is way more low profile, the leather is way softer than past pairs. If the Black/Cement is anything like those they are way better than the 2018 pair.
I feel like no one mentions this but the 2018 "Remastered" version has thick padding around the ankles amd a thick tongue (pause) which I like. However, after copping the 2024 pair I like the elephant print a bit more. But they're both great retros in my opinion
If people like the 2018 Black Cements more due to being "trained" for them look a certain way, then it's time for the people to be untrained. Nike shooting for closer and closer to the OG appearance should be celebrated imo. If people say they love a shoe, why should they love a facsimile over the original? I personally prefer the AM1 Big Bubble over the standard AM1s, and I prefer these 2024 BCs to the 2018s. Smoother+softer leather, more shallow toebox, and less padding in the collar are all wins in my book.
Super surprised they didn’t talk about the Nike air max waffle. Definitely my sneakers of the year… super comfortable and a fresh matchup with the waffle and tn air max… never done before…. now I want all the color ways…
I have a question and I would like to know how y'all feel about the new Jordan spizikes? I always wanted the old spizikes but I never got them so now that the new ones came out I want to get every color way!?
Are these Jordans narrow and snug? I'm between size 8 and 8.5, which one should I buy? I wear 8 in dunks and high Jordan 1s, but 8.5 in Air max plus and Air max 97 silver bullet
I like the 18’s better than the 2024’s, got 3 pair in youth size. The Youth size looks better than my size 13… The leather even looks different between the Youth size & adults… I gotta get the 2018’s again, the elephant print & leather is better on the 18’s… But hey, to each is Own!
What's the best retro of the 'Black Cement' Air Jordan 3?
I love the 2018 Black Cement Air Jordan 3s version!!!! It has been an awesome retro since 1988!!!!!!
2018
1988, 2024, 2001 in THAT order
2024, just prefer the subtleness better. More true though not exact to the originals. 2018 is too loud and bulky. 2001s are the second best imo
Newbie’s will say 2018. Og’s know the real ones are the 24’s
Bring Full Size Run back !
I enjoy this show just as equally. We we're spoiled. I miss it.
We need more FSR!!!!❤❤❤
With Trinidad James
Please bring back Full Size Run with Trinidad James!!!!
Expeditiously at that 😂 💯💯💯

Need someone to do a 2014-style Instagram photo posing with a pair next to their NES controllers.
I have a Nintendo shirt with just the controller on it like a symbol of my Super Power
Black cement 3 is a cop every time they come around 💫
Welty fits getting progressively tougher each week 🤌🏼
You ain't kidding
Fire fit next to the 🗑️crete AF1's.
Some day he’s going to ride in on a horse with chaps and revolvers
this one is actually a fit
I thought I was the only one that peeped it
2024s absolutely smoke the '18s, Absolutely no complaints on my pair
Nobody has given Me a more brilliant, honest &in depth opinion on the cement 3 comparisons then Matt.Welty....
I do like the new one Jordan 3, Matt Welty nailed the comparison, great break down 🔥🔥🔥
Welty always keeping it real
Thank you for the shout out!

He definitely did too much.
absolutely, well said
Wild how they switched up on Yaghty like that so fast.
I didnt expect that at all. I guess cos they do really like/respect bimma
time stamp?
I get the Blk Cements every time they get a retro; this new ‘24 pair might be the best in a long time man. Super happy with them 🔥
I personally like the low cut elephant print on the 24’ tow box, to me that’s what makes the shape look super dope 👌🏼👌🏼I never liked the 2018 and 2011 black cements because of the thick cut elephant print.
This all day!! 💯💯💯💯💯
My son Welty got on a fitted?!?😂🔥
He better not wear that jawn in LA 😂😂😂
2024 BC3 for the win
lil boat a clown for that. No respect. Any man should be able to take criticism. Especially in this space
🗑️crete
In general he’s a massive lame. Don’t get how people vibe with him.
He's a child. It's apparent just hearing him talking
Yo Welty’s breakdown of the nuances between the 18 and 24 versions of the Black cements was straight poetry
Where is our Sneaker of the Year panel?! 😤
Probably getting a heavily edited version if anything at all.
Yatchy happened
Taking forever to drop
Complex Con was amazing and I truly believe it’s what people needed at this moment in time. It was something fresh and new with the latest styles everything about it was right on time. One for the books for sure!!
Welty speaking facts
welty in the legendary diamond tee!!!! real one alert
Tell JLP that Cement Gray is the color; the print is Elephant print
WE LOVE THE PODCAST. THANK THE HEAVENS FOR A NEW EPISODE
ALSO BRING BACK FSR AND TRINIDAD JAMES!!!!!!!!!
GOD BLESS
Sneaky Leak Pod ❤ hearing the ladies shout out. Great episode.
Yachty should have put a EMO LOGO ON THEM BRICK BOYS 😂
Just like the military blues the pair that dropped this year looks like the og but people like the baby blue on the other ones more
Just because a sneaker has tumbled leather does NOT mean the quality is better than regular leather. It’s just a different type of leather.
And it's not even real tumbled it's stamped 😂
Full size run was 🔥

52:47 Dunne with a graffiti reference. Cultured man.
This show makes me fall asleep every time I watch it
They used to sell those olive 9s dyed black already at the mom & pop stores on Jamaica Avenue!
Yachty crossed the line when he said those things on stage trying to humiliate bimma. I’m glad Brendan spoke up about it
“Banned for life like Matt Choi” bars Dunne, bars
I’m kind of surprised that the Wolf Gray Jordan 5’s never retro’d outside of the golf lows….keep
waiting for that drop I think that will be last pair of J’s that will be a must cop for me.

Yes. And I like the reimagined bred 4s even better than the original. So comfy. Great leather. Original all is best tho usually.
Week to week Weltys fits go hard
Brendan Dunne got that Mr Rogers Neighborhood fit going on lol
Cool grey 11s are sooooo clean shoutout to them for showing them love
mentionin twitter rumors is wildwork do betta
John Geiger came to play this year with SOTY. A true leader in the game. Loved his marketing and great for Joe to recognize that.
It's a plain AF1 with an embroidered logo like Rocafella and TS 1s.
Those Concrete Boys AF1’s sitting by Welty… 🔥🔥🔥🔥
The complex sneaker show keep doing ya thing with podcast vlogs keep them coming 💯💯💯👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
My boy Welty been stepping more and more i feel like??🔥
47:57 such a headache hearing 2024 pair.😅😅😅
Sizing is what should be a main topic with this year's Black Cement 3. Half size down for me.
Jordan olive 9s. My fav this year
Been wearing retro 3's for 20+ years now. The reimagined is the most comfortable wearable version. The padding is way more low profile, the leather is way softer than past pairs. If the Black/Cement is anything like those they are way better than the 2018 pair.
Jordan 3 Black Cement is the best sneaker of the year.
Very comfortable I doubled up for under retail on one pair. Too many were sitting.
POD right after complexcon respect!
I tried to see the upcoming sneaker drops but I couldn’t see past that mustache. 😂
Definitely dyed my olives black back in the day
when you are gonna post sneakers of the year panel ?
Think it will be out in a couple weeks.
@ thank you Brendan ❤️

Idk about y’all but I legit can’t wait to get my hands on them legend blue 11’s in December 😰
Great video yeah a have to get since I didn’t have the original but come on hot toys diecast shield
I feel like no one mentions this but the 2018 "Remastered" version has thick padding around the ankles amd a thick tongue (pause) which I like. However, after copping the 2024 pair I like the elephant print a bit more. But they're both great retros in my opinion
#1 Bred #2 Space Jam #3 Cool Grey #4 Columbia
1994 and one of the best boxes . glad I completed 3 full sets of all 94 ( 1s . 2s and 3s ) and the 1999 was also great
Space Jam > Concord > Bred > Cool Grey > Colombia
In 2001 the cools and the Colombian came out same day I bought both

DUNNE LOOKS LIKE Mr. RODGERS 😂
Super surprised they didn’t talk about the Nike air max waffle. Definitely my sneakers of the year… super comfortable and a fresh matchup with the waffle and tn air max… never done before…. now I want all the color ways…
havent seen em in person but in pics the 2024 black cements look like the best retro of them ever
The og 3s weren’t tumbled leather tho. Textured a little sure, definitely not tumbled. ‘24s are 👍🏻
Guy on the left is 40 something dressing like he’s 15.
Guy on the right is 40 something dressing like he’s 75.
The 2024 just look vintage and classic shuttle pair
They Bodega ASICS that ole dude from South Paw had on in sneaker shopping are super fire
I picked those up a month ago. In hand they go crazy. Love the details
The Hypebeast Sneaker show is what y'all should rename this channel...

When yagty lost his 💩💩Joe’s like ohh noooo not that 💩💩again,so funny his face😂😂😅
Why did they part ways with Trinidad tho….still wondering…🤔. This episode was a hitter tho 👍
Yeah that video clip was on line
I have a question and I would like to know how y'all feel about the new Jordan spizikes? I always wanted the old spizikes but I never got them so now that the new ones came out I want to get every color way!?
Honest question, will we get the Sneaker of the Year panel on youtube?
Tells you in this video around 21 mins in
Ate good the past 3 years got every shoe I wanted
Happy Thanksgiving!
I guess the columbias would still be general release, all star shoes are more exclusive now
Just got the new one yesterday on the sneaker app
Wish they released the stash at complexcon. I wanted those so bad
FULL SIZE RUN ❤❤❤❤❤❤
The sizing on the white cements was terrible hoping these aren’t the same.
Are these Jordans narrow and snug? I'm between size 8 and 8.5, which one should I buy? I wear 8 in dunks and high Jordan 1s, but 8.5 in Air max plus and Air max 97 silver bullet
I got my Jordan 1 size and they fit perfectly. I have a wide-ish foot and they don’t feel too narrow at all
Jordan 3 AMA
Asics 1130 Clay/canyon
New balance 2002 concrete GTX
Cool grey 11 is a all time Jordan.
so when will we see soty complexcon vid ?
Dunne sneaking in the Matt Choi diss lol
I like the 18’s better than the 2024’s, got 3 pair in youth size. The Youth size looks better than my size 13… The leather even looks different between the Youth size & adults… I gotta get the 2018’s again, the elephant print & leather is better on the 18’s… But hey, to each is Own!
