Complexcon 2018 Sponsors

Thanks to technical advancement, new shapes, and haute couture collaborations, 2018 was a massive year for sneakers. Damaging down the year's releases with a variety of panelists like DJ Clark Kent, Trinidad James, Allen Iverson, host Joe La Puma moderated ComplexCon's 2018 Tennis shoe of the Year panel.

Taking this year's offerings and putting together a list of the top 10 drops was no simple task, and also rating those tennis shoes was also harder-- particularly live, before an opinionated group. Including prominent releases like the Comme des Complexcon 2018 Garçons x Nike Air Max 180, Air Jordan collabs, as well as the Yeezy 500, each panelist had plenty to say regarding the sneakers and where they arrived on their individual leading 10 lists.

Going over social significance, historic relevance, and also attempting to divide the art from the musician-- when it pertains to Kanye West's sneakers-- the panelists bounced around from complete contract to healthy debate. Take a look at the video above to listen to the full conversation and also to find out exactly how this year's ideal releases placed.
