bensongcomedy I feel you, but a whole warehouse of stuff!? There are kids in the hood with no money to buy shoes, why not give away/ turn it to a profit and help humanity, instead of owning a warehouse full of material stuff.
That guy is one of my biggest inspiration since I'm 12 yo (26 soon) and this interview just got me even more respect for him. The simple fact that he has been keeping his old clothes as souvenirs is amazing. Thanks Complex !
That's part of being a good co-host. Nearly all interviews involving on the spot translations still involve basic things like making eye contact, smiling, nodding and otherwise being respectful.
I mean what you expect him to do, stand there with a blank stare? As an interviewer, even though you don’t understand what the other party is saying, you have to at least show you’re engaged in the conversation.
That's what collecting assets is about...!!! Now when u don't have money your collection or not looks different. But it's about the hustle. You got 24 hours in a day like the next man. Make the best of it. Now church on that.
For him to know where his things are means he himself organIzes and arranges them andddd he has a loooot or stuff Now that’s dedication. Organizing these would be really satisfying
I am Japanese and was a fan of APE. in the 90's and early 2000's APE was really very popular. Undercover and APE were the top two back then. Whenever a new release came out, there was a long line of people waiting in line.
normally when i see a collection like this i think to myself, “how dope would it be to have some of that stuff” but i couldn’t imagine anybody else handling a collection like this but nigo
No one here is talking about culture u dumb fuck .. u kids like microwaved shit and don’t appreciate the things that go behind these brands and the people who really put in the work .. u think spending a 850$ for a Box logo is cool because ur favorite mumble rapper wears it
Nigo is my favourite in every way , love his fashion and his artistic flair it’s shame people these days don’t recognise this fantastic human being for what he does and his new brand human made which is my favourite clothing brand ever , in fact proud to be wearing my human made blue heart solar Hu right now as I’m watching whilst nigo wears his 💙💙🔥🔥
I knew about this legend for a long time now, yet never heard him speak. I always assumed he spoke english seeing as how he is a legend in US too, especially NY. Got so much Respect for this guy, genuinely loves what he does and I can definitely relate about wanting to be a teenager for life
I believe they touched on bape a little for that cudi and nigo vid. I think nigo's always looking forward and sees bape as something of the past. Also doesn't really fit his aesthetic at all anymore.
I could watch and look at Nigo's collection for ages that Bing Crosby jacket was off the chain and Levi Strauss too now this is what u call a real style icon's vintage collection fact ! Blessed I'm out peace . ✌🎧💎☠💯
What a collection. I remember seeing beastie boys, public enemy & LL Cool J all on the same bill in Brighton, 🇬🇧 around 86? The Levi's collection is 💯 %.... my ex has my first Levi's jean jacket, it was so nicely worn it. And only paid £20 when some one stole it brand new for me in '89.
*NIGO IS A RENAISSANCE MAN, A DREAMER, & A VISIONARY---THE WORD ' MAVERICK ' WAS WRITTEN FOR GUYS LIKE HIM and HIS CONTRIBUTION TO CULTURE WILL BE REMEMBERED FOREVER*

needs a full showing livestream for few hours going through every little thing
same thing with dapper dan, how do they not feel the need to have at LEAST a 30min segment on them
Nigo's not an OG. He is the culture. One of the founding fathers of street wear. A legend.
Facts ✨💫
True
nope... the gangster rappers invented street wear.
@@MovieGuy666 no they helped make it popular

This man collects HISTORY. That’s a huge difference from just being a collector. The value of what he has is insane.
It’s ironic because if you are a collector you are destined to collect history in the process
What’s the difference?
I really didn't want to end; hearing Nigo talk about the clothes/jewelry was really fascinating. Love his work
As soon as I finally saw “Nigo” next to a complex notification i clicked
Andy Acosta only if he understood English to hear our thanks for inspiring the drip lol
Andy Acosta me too
You don't know who nigo is
@@lucamiyake555 you either
the most baller thing of all this. is that he can afford a space that big in tokyo.
Just to keep things! He isn't even making any money in that space!
Tokyo is huge, you can find places outside the city and still be considered tokyo for a good price.

Don't tell me one of the other two is fucking KW!
Who’s the other two?

yes KW

You gotta think a cartier ring to someone wit hella money is like a basic ass ring you’d cop at target or someshit
he's really not that rich
g aha and you’re really broke
joe don't even understand what he sayin he just nodding he polite tho just hella confused
they definitely have a translator somewhere, see joe's followup question, he ain't askin no question if he doesn't understand

hahahah
this needs to be turned into a museum after nigo passes away, a true legend and always something to remember him by
no question that it will.
shall we not wish that in the first place ...
I don't like thinking about him passing in our lifetime
@@aarondaboi2670right, don’t even speak that into existence😭
This collection is mind-boggling - in terms of monetary value, of course, but in how tastefully curated it is, too.
He is an enthusiast.. taste will came along with it
Japan is a land with a lot of sophisticated/high sense people (and the most advanced fashion consumers in the world);
@@AK-gt6om and a land of people who wish they were born and raised in the United States. NIGO, is one of those people.
This needs to be like three hours long and just let him go crazy showing whatever
Give him the sneaker head treatment, this was truly not just a closet but a life on display
Yep th-cam.com/video/_JUuDvjy2X4/w-d-xo.html
true!
Hands down my favourite closets episode. Nigo has done and continues to do so much with streetwear, and fashion. Major inspiration
Crazy thing is that probably isn't even 1/10th of whatever he has to show
tpdatruth 1/100th
lol 1/10 .....1/10 000 u mathgenius :D
What’s the point though? He can’t take it with him. Materialistic.
@@anonymouswombat9709 Why does someone have multiple pictures of their pet or something? You can't take em with you
@@anonymouswombat9709 the point is to have rare / valuable pieces that he can go back to and choose to wear at anytime. its a collection.

I wanted to see his earlier ice cream jewelry pieces
This is my fav Complex Video of all time!
Easily!
Same
Of all time, all of time??
When nigo said. “ I always want to stay as a teenager. Like this“ you can tell he’s just so genuine.
I wouldn’t be surprised if he had a piece of John F Kennedy’s head
Thats just absurdly specific
ROFL
@@Lmao-oo2wm 😂😂😂
You are a very intelligent, just what I was thinking bro😂😂😂😂
nice name
Whoever translated this did a great job. They really were able to capture the essence of Nigo's personality and the way he speaks.
Nego seems like such a genuine guy. Would love to be a fly on his wall. Great video
Celebrities showing off their stuff thinking they have the best collection.
Nigo : Hold my sake
LMFAO

Nigo didn’t even show the tip of iceberg that is his collection. Truly a humble man
Nigo- “これは本当に古いです”
Joe - “Ya ya that’s crazy”
I’m overwhelmed by nigo’s collection but he’s been doing this for the longest.
he has more collections, vintage cars, super rare scultptures, one and only lv trunks...blah blah blah
I think he has the largest if not one of the largest collections of Planet Of the Apes memorabilia too I think
@@Angels510 i hope he did bro made whole brand based on it
Nigo: starts answering questions
*joe shakes his head, pretends like he knows whats being said*
6:43, Joe responds to Nigo like he understands.
I noticed that too, Joe might actually know a little Japanese?
Thats actually a sign of respect when you dont understand a language and depends only on translator

mann this needed to be longer, i wanted to see some old bape pieces
I heard from somewhere that he totally dissociates himself from bape now:/ wouldn't doubt that he's kept some pieces tho
@@nicoloco6879 i wouldn’t doubt it either, that’s literally 3 decades of history we’re talking about for bape. still cool pieces shown

This man is tha G.O.A.T of Street wear. Shout to OG nigo, i still wear bape and bbc that will be the future.
NIGO: HUMBLE, SIMPLE, LEGEND
My man got a Mall as his closet , that’s goals af
nah, a warehouse
this is the opposite of a mall..
MUSEUM BRUHHH lmao
Shoutout to complex for giving nigo the recognition he deserves
normally when i see a collection like this i think to myself, “how dope would it be to have some of that stuff” but i couldn’t imagine anybody else handling a collection like this but nigo
The legend, NIGO. This man's knowledge of street fashion and culture is humbling.
Joe's so nervous to touch his stuff lol
You can tell Nigo is truly passionate about fashion and design, not just because it has a massive label on it. Respect.
yo complex, Nigo need to be in the sneaker shopping
Calvin Setiawan he not gon fw any of the basic ass shoes in the stores lmao
Nigo already owns every sneaker ever.
Get the fuck out here!
as soon as the episode starts.....
NIGO: fk it i buy the whole store and any other store you have.
episode over.
Nigos house is where the sneaker shopping takes place
This is just insane. Would love to see his contemporary art collection considering the amount of KAWS he recently auctioned off
I love how he just enjoys his stuff. Never brags about how much he paid. #respect

“This jacket is about $20,000” My College tuition a whole jacket bruh 😭😭

rod lavers the best though
Those jewelry pouches are being overlooked. Clever design!
4 years later, the adidas campus are everywhere! Legend
imagine all the things not showed in camera, priceless things in both ways
😳
Nigo always been an inspiration to me. Such a humble genious. Very happy to finally see this collection even though they missed so damn much!
This man got Bing Crosby's jacket. How does any piece beat that unless its from Michael Jackson?
Nigo really does this shit yo
For real

Right! Didn't even get to the shoes!
As soon as I seen Nigo on the title I clicked, the guy is a legend
Bape is completely omitted from this vid, nigo probably hates it now
Why what happened
Thomas Bellavance he sold it a while ago
@@highestmostexalted1826 became comercialised, unoriginal and lower quality
He also made a human made T-shirt basically dissing bape i think it was on Rocky’s insta

Collection on point.. 🔥
The way he flexed that AP, only a few would understand. The master of subtle flexing Mr. Nigo. Keep going man.
Nigo’s attention to detail is unmatched !
Nigo Is A HIPHOP FASHION GOD!!!!
Pacino Montana he would be in the bible if they rewrote it for today
Wish it was longer , but Nigo is one of the gods of streetwear, just love it he is just a giant man child.

Joe: * nods as if he knows Japanese*...
nauticadon what’s different then korea saying we’re the west
He understood him though
Can't stop watching, Could you please make a longer video, such an interesting collection, it will be great thanks.
The scope of this guys collections is so varied and interesting. What a curator. He's basically built a museum, if not, multiple.
Nigo is the man . “ 20 grand for the jacket “ flexing 😂

Mike and Frank from American pickers would love this warehouse.
Hope he’s into cars. Would imagine he has a R34 GTR Nismo V-Spec in the back or vintage Japanese cars.
Try old Mercedes, modern Ferrari, Rolls. Typical of higher class to be more interested in German and exotics than their domestic shitboxes lol
I'm not sure what cars he has, but I know he got a Pink Veyron from the first production run in 2005.
You can check out his old car collection on IG for example. He’s into Modern Day exotics and probably vintage exotics.
*NIGO IS A RENAISSANCE MAN, A DREAMER, & A VISIONARY---THE WORD ' MAVERICK ' WAS WRITTEN FOR GUYS LIKE HIM and HIS CONTRIBUTION TO CULTURE WILL BE REMEMBERED FOREVER*

the cinematography in this video was amazing.
I would love to peep nigos collection and the stuff he didn’t show💯
