- What are the best Nike Kobe sneakers of all time? Complex recently ranked the top 24 designs from Kobe Bryant’s run of Nike signature shoes in celebration of Mamba Day. Coming off that list, the Complex Sneakers Show recruited Kobe fanatic Darryl Glover to get his reactions to the list and also talk about his history with the shoes. Is the “Grinch” Nike Kobe 6 really the best Kobe ever? Is the HTM Kobe 9 overrated? Also, cohosts Joe La Puma, Brendan Dunne, and Matt Welty catch up on recent sneaker news and react to Patta’s Barcelona version of the Air Max TN, the upcoming Union x Nike Field Generals, and the Huf x Nike Air Max 1 retro.

What do you think is the best Nike Kobe sneaker of all time?
Beethoven, Grinch, or Bruce Lee
Easter Kobe 8
Zoom Kobe 5 Lower Merion
Grinch is hard to argue with (for the masses).
Hard to say but I couldn't argue against the kobe 6 grinch. 6's are my favorite. Kobe 9 detail
Couple of weeks without this show, were so sad! Glad to have it back with such fresh energy!
The passion and knowledge on this one made it a great watch even if you’re not super into Kobe’s. Y’all should keep bringing in passionate collectors like Darryl
I’m one of them !!!!
Great Episode, Shoutout to Darryl for dropping all that Kobe knowledge and for having a genuine love of the sneaker game!
Growing up basketball never had the same impact as football to me over here in the UK - but we all knew about Kobe! Very interesting to hear Darryl speak about his passion with such knowledge, definitely would like to see more collectors/experts/enthusiasts in the future.
Love this!!! A real deal community voice & Kobe collector! Well done!
been friends with this dude on Facebook for 13-14 years… real OG
Great that you guys had him on the show, shows a lot
THEY ARE BACKKKKKK
Great talk about growing and maturing with a collection. I’ve been personally been feeling this way for quite some time. It’s good to hear how other collectors go through their journey. Great episode
my man D! good job representing us Kobe fans on here. LEGITTT!!! I don't agree with the selection of the top 10 Kobe's but we already got a list ourselves. Good stuff!
This was perfect timing in terms of Kobe Brand relaunching, I would like to fully admit that I have only been paying attention to snkrs since 2020, so this was a great introduction into the kobe shoes that matter. I have a lot to learn but Im enjoying sneakers and enjoying the show.
I went to the states in 87 (from Australia) and bought the field generals to play cricket in. I would have been one of the first kids to play cricket in Nikes - even though they were made for American Football but we all played in astroturf pitches.
WOWWWW THAT GRAPE 5 TAKE WAS WILD!!! 😂😂😂
Love your content fam! Keep it up! Can't wait to see what else you make in 2023! 👟🔥🎥
I
Love

All
You
Guys
This show keeps getting better and better. I think Matt Welty actually has likable qualities. 💯
I had a few moments of retrospect and admiration of Vanessa during this podcast. I can't imagine how difficult it is to carry on the Legacy, but something tells me that it will be done with a great deal of Care, Class, and of course, Honor. I am excited to see what the future brings!
The fact that this show still exist is amazing...
😂
One of the best podcast! A real
Collector, also the older I get the more I relate to Welty
The Kobe 6 FC Barcelona in the mango colorway is my all time favorite in his line, I have the matching away kit from that year. I believe it was the 2009/2010 season
Ayyyeee!!! I grew up in the same place as this guy! BIG shoutout to him! Seems super chill and definitely knows his stuff
So glad y’all are back
OOOOH that extra bar in the beginning. Crisp
Gotta meme that Welty “Nike! What are you doing?” Moment lol
the jerry buss sunglasses is crazy 😂😂
You kept it 💯 thanks. I found it weird how smooth & early the drop was I had a feeling something was up!
Congrats Brotha D, well deserved 🙏🏼
Just want to share I loved this ep, Kobe's are my favorite shoes. In college (early/mid 2000s)I was on our University salsa dance team, and I would wear my Kobe's on the dance floor. But they're basketball shoes and not dance shoes(dance shoes have a felt/suede bottom for spinning/turning). Because the basketball shoes had so much grip on the dance floor I would tape the bottom of the toes on the outsole so that I could spin and dance in my Kobe's lol. I had the brave blue 9, showtime 9, and black and gold Kobe 6 that were my go to's when dancing. Even took the 6's on a hike and absolutely cooked them but I loved those shoes.
Super good episode!! Salute to Darryl Glover 🐍👟🔥🔥🔥
THEYRE BAAAAAACK
Barcelona/Mango Kobe VI are still a grail for me and this episode was special 🙌🏼
Great episode. Best show out
Personally, the What the Kobe 8s. Been wanting those since middle school and finally secured a pair🙏🏻
Great episode! BUT……….It lowkey bothers me that the boys had a Kobe sneaker convo without mentioning Eric Avar, Jason Petrie, Sonny Vaccaro and others behind the scenes of this phenomenal line. Obviously Kobe’s legacy is what make these sneakers important BUT I needed more insider info and knowledge on this episode.
The prelude videos really went crazyyyyyy
Fresh episode!! Gang is back
spoken well from a true Kobe fan!!👏🏽
i like how welty is talking about getting rid of pairs... this is a good convo always bring up!
THE BOYS ARE BACK!! 🔥🙌🏾
The Kobe grinch and Beethoven will always be my favorite
Love this episode so far.. didn’t finish. But it’s definitely ok to get rid of pairs here and there and slow down with buying new shoes 💯
As a kobe huuuuge die-hard fan n I'm 41 years old at that, it's such a blessing to see/hear how much we as kobe supporters keep his name alive period...God bless u all.....mamba out✌🏽
Welcome back boyz !
My Fridays are back!
Darryl is a real one, awesome choice on the guest speaker
Ok, you had your three week break and now you aren't allowed to take another week off, ever! I genuinely missed you guys.
1:17:30 NT days I bought some Columbia 11’s in 2006 or 07. I had to just trust the dude and send the money order, they were in great shape.
WONDERFUL EPISODE! So have to see a sneaker friend on this! Well done Darryl!
shout out to Brendan for taking the time to have a conversation when he visited the Adidas headquarters!
We’re so back
It always makes me smile when you hear real sneaker heads talk about how the culture was when I use to be obsessed with it, shout out D, been a cool brotha for a long time.... shout out the homie Frank Nitty too, all solid brothers I've been fortunate to break bread with over sneakers.
8 day camping for shoes is insane! Bruh.
Bro I was like where YALL AT ?! no sneaker world w out y’all ❤❤❤❤❤
Ayeee South Jersey getting some love! Only the real ones know about camping at the Cherry Hill mall 😂
Can't wait for them olive 5's to drop I'm definitely gonna try and get 2 pairs if I can love um!! 🔥🔥🔥
Yoo Brendan those shades are🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I’m searching in the comments for the brand bc I need them.
I've missed you lovely gents!
the kobe 5 bruce lees have been my favorite since they debuted them against the nuggets on February 5th 2010
God bless to the complex ❤
I find it so funny that it's spectacular that "Dunks sitting on shelves at JD! 😮" - that's what everyone wanted and that's how it should be. Enough supply to meet demand.
Welty is on point with the container store boxes.
Kobe 3s are one of my favorites cause it was the first pair of Kobe’s that I hooped in
Love Brendan’s sunglass energy!
This bloke is a legend
Anyone know where Darryl's shirt is from?
Kobe 9. Great performer shoe, traction + drop insoles was special
Missed yall
We need a trivia episode where we test everyone’s knowledge Fr 😂
How rare is the Zoom Kobe 4 'Metallic Silver' I don't see it for sell very often. So is it just not a coveted shoe or not much inventory out there?
We back baby…!!!
Them Nightmare Before Christmas crazy 8s are TOO underrated
I’ll be honest the Kobe 11 was the first Kobe shoe I liked I never really paid attention to his sneaker line until that one came out… the grey pair was crazy
Kobe 11's most underrated number
Nice 👍
I need those Huf Air maxes 👀
those Purple Hyperdunks with the case were dropped at HOH LA, a lot more pairs out there, many samples were made...
Kobe IV “Venom” PE is the best Kobe ever
Kobe 5 Chaos is my all time favorite Kobe shoes
As always I'm here from beginning to the end. Commenting, sharing to support because its a dope, fire 🔥 series along with sneaker shopping and FSR in my opinion. I was thinking about Matt WellTeee's statement of him having too many shoes. And if you want to give away any of them I'd love to own some and would wear em daily most likely. Plz bless me
I've just turned 29 and gone 1.5 sizes up in the last year too
Double swooshes always do it for me. Barcelona TN great colorway
you had the awp out? scout knives??
I think we have to realize that stateside Air Maxes are slept on… most air max drops sit unless they’re a collab.. I’m hype for the obsidian Big Bubbles that are about to drop tho
This series is largely remembered for the stylish clothes Detectives Brendan Dunne, Sonny Crockett and Ricardo Tubbs wore
It’s so refreshing to not have to see Trinidad James on this show.
Dark times w/out this sneaker show..
The “Draft Day” Kobe 11 is the most slept on sneaker that should’ve made the list.
Shoutout Brother D….609 stand uo
Daryl, you hit it dead on. Not all Kobe heads' number one pair is going to be the Grinch 6s. It's all hype nowadays with everyone blindly following the next sheep declaring the Grinches to be the best pair of Kobes.
one of the better colorways for sure. you have been pretty generous with the ratings for a bit tho lol. Nike must have figured out the formula!
The shades tho go hard
I worked at Foot Locker , Kids and Foot Action lol 😂 that Insole and a pair of socks 🧦 😂😂
Another One 🫡
It’s about time you guys came back next time prep us for three weeks have the videos premade and release while your on vacation
I support this take.
Kobe 7 Christmas Day are so tough. Top 10
Putting “Kobe Expert” without putting the guys actual name down with it is really messed up.
6.30 pm in Amsterdam. Y'all making me cancel my social plans and devour this pod.
Burgundy Jordan 5s are sitting ducks. Olives prolly will too. Appreciate the 5, but I never wear any of mine. Don’t like they way they look on feet.
I’ve missed you.
guys pls tell action bronson whats up with those 1906r those were HEAT
KOBE!!!!! 💜💜💯
