I love that you did 23 for 23! Your list really opened my mind to a lot of other shoes. Keep up the great work. 200,000 followers for this year. GO HARD, JAY.
Bro your list is the Best Hands Down! 💪💯 Everyone has different tastes so the diversity of your list was cool. We don't have to agree on every shoe it's about the placement and if it is respectable 😎
Reimagine 3 is my #1. SB4 #2. This list was a tiny bit dunk heavy. But I can live with all of that, I really had a problem with playoff 13’s being #19, easily a top 10 shoe. I cannot believe you had 2 pairs of 8’s in the top 23. I just don’t feel the 8’s, you do you. Y’all do a great job.
Great list Jay!! Thanks again for being us great visuals, info, and content all 2023! Praying for 200k followers, a prosperous year, and long money because 2024 about a MONSTER !! 😂
Great list overall, honestly it's difficult as 2023 was a great year for shoes. Kinda shocked that there was no Adidas on the list, I know it's a recent release but do feel like the Fear of God Basketball are nice. Also the Yeezy drops this year re-released some of my favorite shoes.
I agree with your list jay! Can’t argue with it lol. My top 5 is the j balvins, union X BBS (I fell in love with these idc lol), gratitude, Jordan 4 sb and Doernbecher Hugo. But 2023 was the best year for sneakers I’ve seen in a LONG while and made me broke so it was a great year for speakers ahah! 😅🤷🏽♀️.
Thanks for the Vid! Looking forward to the upcoming drops in 2024, my must cops are: -Jordan 12 Shadows -Jordan 1 High Midnight Navy -Jordan 11 Columbia Blue -Any new Kobe drops at Retail.
Happy New Year Fam-A-Lee! The only thing that I wasn’t feeling about the list was number 19. I would put those as an honorary mention and moved another pair up to that spot. Apart from that the list is Gucci.
Love the list even though I didn’t get a lot of them. I’m not a fan of dunks….i tried but just can’t get onboard with them. But much respect to your choices. Can you start posting your fit ideas with some of your videos? I really like your style choices.
Jay your top shoes for 2023 are fire like the Nike hurrito dunks. The Jordan 13s the Travis Scott Jordan ones and the Nike dunk April's and the Nike dunk court purples. Those shoes are all fire and they wish I had some of those shoes in my collection but I know some of those shoes are pricey. But what I admire about you Jay is that you know what you want and you go and get it if it's possible and also you know some important people to help you get these shoes and that is what I admire the most about you because you have done so much for the sneaker culture
@@ClearSmoke100you mean like how every year or couple years they have a Black and Red playoff 4? You're that same guy who's gonna say I NEED THOSE 4's.. or who never keeps that same energy.. Lol... personally WC3's are my shoe of the year too.
Dope list! The only gripe I got is Joe Freshgood NB’s at #23! I think that should’ve went to the 85 Highs or even the UNC toes, but it’s your list! Lol. Keep making movies Jay! Happy New Year!
I know my comment will probably have SHOCK VALUE but honestly I’ll be truthful….. I went with the hype The Re-imagined 3s are NOT that tough I don’t even wear my pair and possibly NEVER will
I agree with you, for the most part, my boy.. Not 100% but about 81% round there.. but It was an outstanding in video Jay! 💪🏼💯🔥🔥 keep winning big dowg!! 🏆🥇
Nice list brother, different thn the other RU-vidrs, I like that. But I would've included powerpuff SB for sure. I think it's easier to wear than f.e DB foamposite haha. Happy new year fam.
My SOTY is deff the red and white 12’s 🍒🍒…ain’t have them since 97” miss the 09 pair..ppl couldn’t even do a early release on these out of every shoe this year..these was kept sacred..everyone had access to them once released..MIKE played in them…what more can you ask for 🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️ and for the resell niggas these deff will jump back to 500 within 5 years 😮💨💨
If you like it I love it but I this list was ehh I think your honorable mentions beat a lot of the shoes that was actually on your list Jay but still a movie as always happy new years
Thanks for sharing your favorites of the year!! Did think Royal reimagines was gonna get a mention based on the fit.. Those had to be in consideration tho right??
You got #1right, but the AMM Jordan 5 D&D should have been #5. I feel like Complex may have let the politics influence their decision to leave them off the list due to the controversy, because AMM 5 easily crushes 10-5 on their list. The level of re-imagining the AMM Jordan 5 goes well beyond any other Jordan collaboration this YEAR, 2nd only to the Jordan SB 4. That kind of re-tooling and re-imagining is what should be considered when choosing your top 10's. Peace and Love
JAYYYYY With all due respect my guy happy New Year’s to you and the family limitless blessings and more to come!!! So much less importantly, the blasphemy brother with how you did my Foams OG color ways..& overall Thee Mambas.. but you still can’t go wrong with anything on your list? Yes, indeed.🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾~Lifewaves Brand
Solid, Solid list Jay!! Some of your picks are on my list to go back and cop since I misssd out. SB pine green 4s is my SOTY as well. 🫡🫡 I'm going to need a second closet for my kicks 😅
@19:57 I wanted cherry 🍒 12’s in size 11.5 I took L’s on Snkrs but luckily for me I copped for $40 over retail here in Compton people scooped up 4-5 pairs of those. We may never see them retro again so I had to at least get one pair. Cherry 12’s and Playoff 12’s are my most worn pair of 12’s with Flugame 12’s outsoles worn out. I hoop 🏀 in my 12’s AJ11 is my number 1 sneaker of 2023; Since you asked your top 10 has all sneakers that impossible to cop for retail. your top 10 lists easily cost you $6000? 💸💸💸💸💸 we not making that 💰💰💰💰💰
Maybe I am salty I couldn’t pay that much for your top 10 but J Balvin 3’s are trash no way they better than Cherry 12’s , Kobe’s or White Cement 3 ‘s. I had to pay resell for Kobe’s and no way I will pay $900 for Travis Olive 1 low. Too hyped it’s nice but that’s a car payment bruh!
Actually maybe you paid $22,000 for your entire list of sneakers? I’m looking at my size 11.5 on GOAT for all your hyped sneakers. Wow RU-vid must be paying you well 💰💰💰💰💰💰
i'm looking to get into sneaker collecting and i got some jordans over christmas, was wondering if you had any tips on how to make enough money to buy shoes?
@16:57 the Gratitude 11 is my #1 of 2023 followed by #2 Reimagined White Cement 3, Cherry 🍒 12’s, playoff 13’s, playoff 8’s , all Kobe’s I tried but couldn’t even smell a Kobe Protro in 2023. Same with Jarritos SB4’s . TBH it’s funny your list has so many hyped SB’s and sneakers like the Chinese Jordan 1 rabbit low that only dropped in China. Tiffany AF1? Come on now , we not paying $2000 for an AF1 in your #7 😜
@26:37 disrespect the REIMAGINED 3 and cherry 🍒 12’s with year of rabbit and SB4 two sneakers only way to get is to drop $3000 not to mention Tiffany. Might as well put Trophy Room, Eminem Carharts on this list
Happy New Year fam, many blessings to you and yo family 2024! 🙏🏾🙌🏾🙏🏾 You stay bringing us the heat, I ain’t mad at cha lol and that blue puffer jacket I need that in my collection asap! Where you get it from? 💯🔥💪🏾
