OMG first RU-vidr EVER that put the Neutral Grey 85’ on his toplist. Not only that, in the top spot. I LOVE those and just doubled up. Those are 100% my sneaker of the year and happy that Tan gave them some love!
I know, right? Neutral Greys get no love but they are easily the most well crafted sneaker of the year and not only that but the colorway is absolutely amazing
I love my 85s. I wore them so much last year, they broke in super nicely. I will say for those people who are planning to buy the Georgetown 85s this year, if you’re going to be wearing them once a month it’s gonna take you years to break them in. I wore mine for a month straight just to get the whole shoe to break in, and now they fit like a glove 💀
@@CaliKiid714 right!!! The leather was way thicker then the other GR releases. What I also love about them is that they feel noticably slimmer in the silhuette. Tossed in a pair of cream laces and now that the second pair is coming in I’ll be wearing the first pair much more frequently.
@@castleswillfall192 totally agree. They even crease less because of the quality. Even though they are white I feel like they are more durable they most of my other J’s.
@@filipzaitsov4730 If you want to break in the side panels more, and maybe add a couple wrinkles for a more broken in look you can just fold them around for a bit. Since the leather is nice and thick, it’ll just bounce back to it’s original shape, but you’ll definitely feel them less stiff around the sides.
Shout out to Ralph for mentioning the undefeated dunks, both pairs are fire including the AF1s but those olive ones are the best of the bunch.. super slept on!
I respect everything you guys picked . I’d like to see people really start appreciating good looking shoes regardless of collab or hype . Back in the days , we made things hot . We didn’t have influencers . I’d make some Barkley look hot ! Bo Jackson’s n sh!t ! 😂 HNY EVERYONE! ✌🏼✌🏼
I'm with you, Richie! This year was FIRE!!! And y'all had some great takes! Anyways though, my list gotta be: 5. UNC 1's 4. Salehe Bembury Crocs 3. Patta Air Max 1's (I can't decide between Monarch or Noise Aqua tho...) 2. Beluga Reflective 350's 1. Lightning 4's (Just bought my pair!)
For me, my top 3 sneakers of 2021 are what I was lucky enough to cop. My third is the Carmine 6s, was happy that Nike brought it back with the Nike air on the back, even though the sneaker had a lot of defects on some of the pairs. My number 2 would be the Raging Bull 5s . I can’t go wrong with red and them sneakers were a must have. I wish they would have brought back the black pair as well but overall I love the Red colorway and it’s just a solid easy to wear sneaker. My number 1……. The LIGHTNING 4s. Such a beautiful sneaker, the yellow is just very flashy and it pops. Definitely satisfied with my answers
all of you had great lineups! wish I could’ve gotten my hands on those protection pack nb and salehe crocs. love how they remixed classics and made it more hyped✨👌🏾 my top 3 in terms of actually owned.. 3) Trav 1 low, 2) off white dunk lot 7 (whole experience was cool. we need more like it), and 1) AMM 3’s
Same ranking for me. No one in the team mentioned the Travis 1 low? Nobody for the 50 Dunks? (any lot, just the release experience and concept was insane).
top 3 for me from what I was able to cop: 3. A Ma Maniere 1's 2. Joe Freshgoods 990v3's 1. A Ma Maniere 3's Honorable mention: Sea Salt 2002r's from the protection pack!
Jordan 6 and 7 is the best Jordan silhouettes of all time for me. I love everything about the shape and style of them. They need to drop more color ways of those. For most of the Jordan 1-10 I only like the OG colors but the 6 and 7s I like even more than the OGs.
I have to do 3 different Top 3s because 2021 had some of the craziest shit ever… Hype Top 3: #3 - Off White University Gold AF1 #2 - Travis/Fragment Jordan 1 LOW #1 - A Ma Maniere Jordan 3 GR Top 3: #3 - Jordan 4 Thunder #2 - Jordan 1 Patent Bred #1 - Jordan 4 University Blue Honorable Top 3: #3 - Spackle Salehe Bembury Crocs #2 - ALD 550 Natural Green #1 - A Ma Maniere Jordan 1
My top 3 Unc 4 (honorable mention) Taupe haze 4 (honorable mention) Air Jordan 1 85 (my top shoe) I’d even go as far as to say 85 cut over regular aj1 cut 🤷🏽♂️
