    “Patta makes shoes for the guy that loves sneakers” – they ain’t never lie with that comment.
    I’m still huntin’ for my purples. Get at me if anybody got a 12 or a 13

  • MAX AIR

    Are they serious they put these over space jams WOW!!!

  • stat

    Pure BS wat the hell #1 gonna b homer simpson dunks?

  • richie rich va

    “patta makes shoes for the guy that loves sneakers” then puts them back and gets a pair of space jams because its a hotter shoe. what girl u know is like “HE GOT THEM PATTAS ON, HE DOING IT .

  • mints

    I love the collabs Patta does because it’s always some low key yet really nicely done stuff. Everyone knows about Jordans and tries to get the big releases when they come out, this stuff is easier to get yet harder to find.

  • Cacaboy69

    Of course these are b4 AJ’sSJ just my opinion son just look at sneaker they chose and the material even tho I would’ve chosen the one with the cord/denim/suade it’s just the thought that was put into that project beside J’ are J’s and a brand of on its own that holds weight Patta getting more out there. Fam think about out not to take anything away from SJ but these Patta will never come out again. The SJ will release again within a couple of more years and again and the patta’s wont.

    richie … you got jokes, young’n.
    Congratulations on copping YOUR 09 synthetic GRAILS.
    I got a pair too to rock
    …as BEATERS .

    what’s hot to you in 09
    was hot to me in 01
    before girls knew what a space jam was and just said,
    “Nice Jordans.”

    and my pair is still icy…
    not piss yellow…

    ICY.

    They sit right next to these PATTAS that you don’t know NUTHIN’ about.

  • richie rich va

    cacaboy i feel u but this is about the best shoes of 09. to me this patta is only known to people like dj clark kent and the mayor. the streets have no say. if clark kent said the best is the shoe nike only made for him thats what he will put up there. people lost their mind for the sj’s. but the patta is something the mayor and clark kent and a bunch of over paid over fed people loose sleep over

  • richie rich va

    R E E its cool cuz. to let u know im not young and i do have the 00 grails. but the 01′s i think your confused about the year. and also u cant tell me yours r still icy. impossible.

  • ?uestlove

    Man… all these little teenage boys whining like little b*tches just because the list doesn’t match with what they think it should be. What you think is your OPINION. Everybody has a different opinion. You ain’t no sneaker expert – u just a stupid consumer with an opinion. If yall so mad at the list, why don’t u put out ur own list, ha? Lets watch and see how many more b*tches put up their little rants up here. hah

  • souled814

    @richie rich

    if you rock your kicks just to get girls’ attention you are not a real sneakerhead. piss off, hypebeast. real sneakerheads wear them because they think they’re dope.

    and if a girl were to say to me “i like your pattas” well hot damn, my search is over bc i just found wifey, real talk.

  • richie rich va

    souled, its tru i like fresh kicks for the myself and the ladies. ive been collecting, excuse me more like vaulting my kicks for years now. i like when girls brake ad stare at what ever i have on. and i do get some satisfaction out of kids salivating over the mr cartoons i wear every cinco de mayo. even though im not hyperbeast gay like your self. i would rather have ladies stop and stare than to be that guy who dresses like nerd who just got there lunch money taken, and got there patta’s thrown on a power line.

  • R E E

    @ Richie, just making it clear. No love lost.
    I’m not confused about the year. They came out in December 00. I copped in January 01. Like I said, “was hot to ME in 01″
    And, no, it’s not impossible to have an icy pair of shoes 8 years later. Slide me your email if you want proof.

    At this point, I’m over what shoe is RANKED where on the list. Hottest shoes of 09 in NO particular order is enough for me. I really coulda did without that SB Bruin…but, whatever.

    But, i gotta disagree about who KNOWS about the PATTA shoe. I, like most of the heads on this site, am not on Clark Kent, Mayor status on shoes…but, I know a little something. This is a REAL SNEAKERHEADS shoe. And, as limited as that white/purple shoe is and for someone to not be in the US and get their hands on a pair is SERIOUS.

    AND, like Cacaboy said, you’re NOT going to see these shoes again.

  • richie rich va

    R E E. respect brother i agree.

  • Cacaboy69

    Remember we dont have to Agree with the Complex “Top 10 of ‘-09-” but from what they chose they pretty much chose the best Of 09′ but I would’ve listed in different order and to me it would not matter cause I cop what I like I dont follow herd and beside’s I have the majority of everything on that list.

    If you think they forgot something drop it here :
    To me I thought the Pigeon Converse were a nice Release again thats my opinion.

  • richie rich va

    the nike gijoe destros should be on the list. for colorway and box for me

  • Cacaboy69

    THats cool. See thats our opinion u like the Destro I feeling the Pigeon converse……
    I think NICEkicks should allow the people on the site to vote for NiceKicks sneaker head top 10′ of 2009′ Nicekicks should have a archive of all the release of 2009′

    for me, these were the best shoes of the year. kicks like Space Jams, or Yeezys sold out ‘cos of hype, not quality or looks. These are the real deal. Excellent colors and materials on a top 5 all time silhouette.
    i got the white n greens an the chords…… but daaaam i wana find the purple denim ones.

  • lmnop

    i think them guys will have the lebrons as no.1 tho

  • Mr. Willson

    Rich Rich, just shut up. Seriously.

    I guess you can wrap me in that group “over paid” and “over fed”. Anything Patta touches is gold. Period. They know their materials, colors, structure, etc. and how to bring it all together. They take time and effort with their design. JB, as of late, just slaps some colors together and re-releases the same dam thing over and over. It’s already been said in the clip and been posted here: They make sneakers for those of us who love sneakers and you will never see these again.

    So it’s okay for people to lose their dam minds over the Space Jam’s, but if I anticipate this sneaker, all of a sudden I get clowned? Tell you what, you and the dam “streets” can keep your mass produced, synthetic, half-a**ed quality retro and I’ll gladly take the quality, thought-out, simple and clean made for the “over paid” and “over fed”. I could give less of a damn what the “streets” think about my kicks. Half the time, it’s the “streets” asking me about my kicks to begin with.

    Now if you excuse me, I’m going to put in my order for a pair of the Patta designed Pro-Keds. Clown. *lol* :P

  • S.H.I.T.-Sneaker Head In Training

    i want the greens soooo bad, id take these over the space jams, everyone who wanted a pair of 11s got them, does any1 kno were i can get the green pattas at?

  • lmnop

    i kno where to get the greens from if you can hook me up with the purple denims in size 10 ;)

  • sneaker12

    I’m sorry but these air maxes look like they were made for grandmas and grandpas. I understand the fact that it’s an OG style but that doesn’t mean they look good. I would NEVER buy these. Ever.

  • qnzman989

    yea 1 is def lebron VII like i predicted.. because its the only sneaker released this year to get as much hype as it did being a brand new design, it gives hope that people dont have to rock retros, we can look to the future designs as inovative and stylish

  • richie rich va

    mr. wilson look man the pattas are are a walking sneaker with a material not usually used. so what, just becuase the spent 2 more cents on a sneaker it should be better than the grails.shame brother shame. and since u r over fed and over paid i guess i should pay a visit to u and your residence an put some retros on your neck and take some of that money, after all i amfrom the streets ………………………………………………………………………………11′s number1 11′s number 1, 11′s number 1 and dont u forget it son

  • greenmaker24

    the patta air max 1s really are nice
