Complex mag pays homage to the everyman collector which Sneaker Fiends Unite! represents. Here’s my list of my 25 greatest sneakers. Not too much hype on this list, but it’s all heat if you let me tell it, and Complex did.

Once again DP congrats on this drop, about time Complex showed some props. No hypebeast, just fly sneakers. This drop brought back some memories man. The AM 95 Neon, I still need those. The Nike Air Trainer III, I need those too. I remember seeing those Mowabb on a Sneaker Fiends Unite tour in the BX. I always wanted the “Agassi’s and the Gucci trainers. Those Gucci trainers are the flyest sneakers ever. I gotta find a pair of those. Peace.
Oh I forgot—— FCUK DR. JAYS!!!!!!
you are the first internet celeb, it was destined. keep up good work, final resue me is good so far.
Nice piece, DP, especially the Tims riff. Way too much wack NIke for my taste but that’s me. Given the chance, I’d ditch the more douche-y swooshes for–
* white/blue or white/black low top Pony
* Patrick Ewing Adidas
* Puma Clydes
* Something Brooks for actual running
* Some dope-ass Navy suede & white New Balance trail runners I had c. 1985.
* original yellow/black Nike Air Sock
* some Adidas track spikes
p/s–
* Diadora soccer cleats
* Adidas Samba
dawg…..thats why it was DPs top fiddy. im sayin……
Interesting list DP. Not your cliche III’s, XI’s, IV’s, Supreme’s kind of list. Surprised me about the Air Jordan 2009.
Congrats Dallas! Finally a great list on Complex, and one that isn’t full of all those hype beast sneakers. Very thorough!
Yo my con according to the lil sissy’s that frequent sneakernews/sneaker con, you my friend have no “swag” that your top 25 is for the retirement home,they say what no jodans??af1’s?… To that I say “fuck dr.jays”!!!!
I like the fact that DP’s list is lifestyle-based. He isn’t just talking about swag or copping just to stunt on the next dude. It’s not about what “everybody” says is hot. A lot of his list entries tell a story. How many of these dudes out here can say that? Applaud DP for always putting heart into whatever he drops on these internets.
salutes!
