Complexcon 2018 Exclusive Drops

Many thanks to technical technology, new shapes, as well as haute couture partnerships, 2018 was a huge year for tennis shoes. Breaking down the year's launches with a slew 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 assembling a list of the leading 10 drops was no simple task, as well as rating those sneakers was also harder-- especially live, before an opinionated crowd. Including preferred releases like the Comme des Garçons x Nike Air Max 180, Air Jordan collabs, and also the Yeezy 500, each panelist had plenty to say concerning the sneakers as well as where they came down on their personal leading 10 lists.

Going over social significance, historic significance, as well as attempting to divide the art from the artist-- when it pertains to Kanye West's tennis shoes-- the panelists jumped around from complete agreement to healthy and balanced discussion.
