Knoxville buying a $2500 pair of used Air Jordans simply because he likes them and wearing them out of the store is peak legendary status.
Agreed Knoxville is the best!
It takes a man to not wear those but props to him
Takes an Idiot to drop 2 bands on a shoe and NOT wear them pros to knoxville
The bar is REALLY high for you guys, huh? 😆
They’re worth more now if anything
that is 100% the best pickup we've seen on sneaker shopping, and straight to the feet, what a great guy Johnny is.
“I did not think a pair of shoes could make me this happy” welcome to the club pal
I wanna know if they crumbled.
And he spent just a much as anyone else on the show - with just one purchase lol
@@commish915 and? it's better to spent 2700$ on a classic from 94' than the same amount on a TS x Fragment from 2021...
@@pedronunes31 the lol wasn't too knock him. That came off wrong. I'm a Knoxville fan. If I had it like that, I'd probably make the same purchase
As crazy as Knoxville is. He always seemed like the most sane one out of the crew when doing interviews.
I feel like he’s pretty sane, just super courageous. Not to put any of the other guys down, they’re all super brave, but they’re crazy and brave.
Steve-O has gotten real cool after he got sober.
Why do you think hes the ring leader of all of them lol
I feel like the guys who look insane, especially the folks from Jackass, are actually more sane than most ''sane'' people.
He’s definitely seems to be the least scared towards doing stunts in the cast, but I still think Steve-O is doing the more hardcore stuff.
Man, Knoxville was really showing off his old school, dad style humour at the end there. He's a treasure, no doubt!
You honestly could not have picked a better or more iconic pair of shoes for your first pair of J’s. Well done Mr. Knoxville
Well with those converse he had the soles were coming off makes sense to have the Js straight to toe
Imagine if he resells that shoe is worth way more now 😂
@@sebcarlos0642 1. He doesn't need the cash 2. Not everyone is a 16-year old freaky reseller bro
@@DiegoCastillon I was just saying if he did, I’m not a reseller 😂
@@keithdimas3915 LMAO came here for the video. Left with a laugh. Well played Bro
He definitely deserves those jordan 1’s after putting his body to entertain us over the years.
10000%
More to make money, but yes it very much entertained us
kzhead.info/sun/driFfMtxrppjp2w/bejne.html
I wonder if he knew if those were OGs. Still yea we’ll deserved, I woulda opted for the rerelease of them lol
yea but u think he knows he cant wear them? lol
Lots of people wouldve put those shoes on a shelf. Johnny was like, “ah yes new shoes i will wear them out”. Legend
It's crazy seeing the Jackass crew getting old it hits hard especially if you seen them from day 1 still hard realize how life has really passed by
Well, we are getting old too. :P Ffs, im 30 and it was only yesterday i recorded Jackass-episodes to VHS-tapes. Good ol' days!
@@dickmccarthy9496 , I'm 29 😩
I blinked one time when I was 15 and now I'm 27. Life moves fast as hell, gotta make sure you cherish every second of it.
@@sway_onthetrail im 20 and had this realization on my 20th birthday which was the 2nd of this month and it's given me huge panic attacks and made me depressed to where i wanna do nothing not even communicate with the people i love i feel stuck , anyone got some advice?
@@kilakaz55 I do, I struggled with my mortality a lot a few years ago. Try to remember that you’re only a fifth through your life and you’re actually at the best part right now. You’re at the part to become your own person, make the best memories, and start building an easy future. Life is too short to be worried about things like that or to not strive to be positive and happy; but it’s also long enough that it’s easy to take time for granted. Every second you waste being upset or worrying about things you cannot change is a second wasted. You have a long life left, really we all do here. We all have countless things to experience still and as long as you continue to stay active and healthy, you’ll be young well into your older age. Johnny is a great example of that. Dude is 50 and got laid out by a bull a couple years ago. Still looks great despite it all.
Such a genuine, grounded guy. And the fact that he wore the Jordans, then and there, was the cherry on the cake.

legend
Yeah I’m sure sneaker heads didn’t like that part tho
He’s a millionaire and still only owns 2-3 pairs of shoes, man’s got his priorities straight. Much respect to Knoxville.
Yeah, now a pair for 2500 ? Lmao. He could have his priorities and still keep like twenty pairs
what does that even mean. lol so if you have more than 3 pairs of shoes you obviously don't have your priorities straight is that what you're saying?
@@shuarma0 I see you have some serious problem with reading
@@shuarma0 most millionaires probably have a wardrobe dedicated for just shoes whereas he only has a few because you really dont need a whole wardrobe of them
@@tobymagajer956 sounds like english is your second language.. cute!
JK is worth over $50 million and is still rocking a normal outfit and worn out pair or shoes. Seems like such a likable dude! Much Respect!
Spent the whole episode in a daze wondering where the last twenty years has gone. Spent so many nights back in college just getting faded and watching jackass. Warmed my heart to see him reach for a pair of Chicago’s. Johnny Knoxville is a legend.
Deep
i've gone through 4 pairs of af1s but they remind me of cheif keef/yung lean era of life and they make me happy and ppl are gonna say cap but ngl they never go out of fashion they always havin comebacks as soon as ppl "get old" of them
It makes me nostalgic, sad, and reflective. Strange thing to feel when watching a sneakershopping episode 😅
The best episode of the season so far. He's shown that its not about meaningless purchase, quality not quantity.
Bro what are u saying bruh
Johnny keeps it real. Johnny is Punk. “I dont like that distressed look. You gotta earn it” so true Johnny . Chucks forever 🤘🏻
This is probably the most interesting episode yet. Haven’t seen Knoxville in anything other than converse the past 20 years
He wore Adidas in the MTV takeover!
Johnny’s signature “Hello I’m Johnny Knoxville” i mean it gives me chills whenever i hear it, whether it’s a guest appearance or he’s announcing the intro for Jackass
Best episode so far, doesn’t care about the clout, only there to be himself!
Humility 🙏🏼💯
He really perfected the lesbian look
@@apathy5899 LMAOOO
@Consecrate Not gonna lie - That is a funny comment. 😂
he’s there to promote a movie... he’s only there for the clout
props to him. his chuck taylor’s looks destroyed and now he copped the chicago’s 👏 well deserved
They sell distressed/dirty looking chucks.
Thank you for describing what happened in the video
his worn out chucks would definitely sell high.
At this point Johnny must be worth close to 100 million, yet he stays incredibly humble. Max respect for that.
net worth sites are saying 50 mil, so close
@@SamS-mo1iz no 69.420 million of dank party that's his net worth it sounds bad but look up the website It's legit
@@SamS-mo1iz net worth sites aren't reliable at all
This episode was enjoyable in that it was equal parts kind of contrived, but only because it was balanced with Johnny Knoxville's absolute realness. He made such a well grounded point about keeping things simple, and you can read it in his energy here. Like he's doing this because his PR or whoever told him they are doing this, but it's clear he doesn't live a life of spending this kind of money on clothing. Rich minimalist.
Rich minimalist? Lolz - Johnny owns five different houses in the Hollywood hills alone - it’s called an ‘image’ - he’s got an army of minders, managers and maids to keep it that way.
@@williemays2 wearing the same pair of sneakers for 3 years just to own five mansions! That's the most lucrative business model I've ever heard
@@paddyc5924 That's what we call 'Show Bizness' Sonny🤠
@@williemays2 I mean (respectfully) yes and no.. You have a very valid point, but when you know someone has a solid core value system, you can tell. Knoxville is as forthcoming and honest as it gets as far as most celebrities go and hasn't changed like that over time. And to the other comments, obviously it's a big stretch to say he "wore the same pair of shoes to get five mansions".. but there is something to that sentiment.. like the shoes are probably just one part of his economic priorities to himself. Imagine what else he probably saves $ on with the same principle-- in order to get those mansions.
Let’s go Joe we’re back!!!! Johnny is a LEGEND and earned even more of my respect for shouting out Tyler the creators converse and wearing the shoes he bought out the store. Iconic
It will become a good song I'm buying sneakers and going with 50k in my bank account 😌
I'm not really into shoes and mainly clicked for Johnny, but hearing them talk about it so passionately with the history of a shoe and the styles of them, I kinda see why people are into it now. It's just like any other kind of collectable.
facts bro
Every time I see Johnny walking around in videos like these, I'm in awe that he's still standing. In any other career, he would of gotten like 10 purple hearts for the amount of injuries he's sustained over the years.
I love how he wore the shoes out of the store and how happy he was to get them. It really shows that he genuinely cares about the shoe and isn't in it for the resell value or clout
Do you really think he gives a s*** about the shoes He's promoting a movie
@@OoO-wq9cu people are allowed to like things while promoting something
Those shoes became more expensive as soon as he did his little jig on his way out....
I remember doing that as a kid
Love how humble he is when it comes to Material things.
All celebs should follow his example.
I love how down to earth he is. There will never be another Knoxville.
Love the fact he’s not a sneaker head at all but appreciate the classics, a true legend
Man is an absolute legend. Always enjoyed his movies. The episode we didn't know we needed
It’s sad seeing the guys from jackass getting old. It’s one of those things you wish would go on forever. Rip Ryan Dunn
i don't think its sad, johnny and steveo in particular have aged incredibly and matured. I don't think getting old has to be a bad thing
@@GMoretti-ux1pe no I didn’t mean them aging necessarily is a bad thing. I meant more that the movies and stunts a lot of people have watched and enjoyed for years aren’t gonna happen anymore soon.
@@GMoretti-ux1pe new people doing jackass movies would never be the same
@@robertsstinkysnatchcorner790 yeah that's such a fair point, been a big part of many of our childhoods
For fuckin real bro
The intro itself with Johnny is a sole core memory and legendary . You could hear that laugh or that voice and instantly know who that is.
I love Johnny Knoxville, his genuine almost gentle soul really radiates off him. He’s an OG. 🙌🏻💯❤️
His reaction to the price was great LOL, “did I break something?” 😂 He’s going to wear those until there’s only shoelaces. He’ll be lacing up his toes
Didn't expect him to go straight to the Jordan 1 grail lol. He'll definitely rock those to the ground 👏
Definitely hahahaha.
Looking on how he beat his shoes those chicagos wouldnt really last that long that shoe is almost 30 yrs old i hope joe tells him that.
@@masterlucky379 are they the 30 yr old ones or the Chicago 1s from 2015?
@@AKhan.28 94s almost 30
@@masterlucky379 but they were used tho. They only fall apart if they don’t get used.
Wish this was longer. Love Johnny so much. Such a big part of my childhood. A real treasure of pop culture
He is really polite and is down to Earth. Really hard to find people like this still. Huge respect to Complex for bringing him out.
Johnny was so nice and polite the whole time and I love his easygoing, skater mentality. What a great ep. Can't wait for the movie. I'll be wearing my Boy Named Sue t for Dunn while I watch it in theaters
he dont skate though
@@gorillafan1111 he used to when he was younger
@@Ry1bw he said in another interview that he has never been a skater he only tried when he was 12 but broke his ankle and his dad was so angry that he threw his skateboard into the woods. he still does seem like he would though with his fearlessness
Knoxville rocking the old school Chuck Taylors, flannel and Wayfarers is iconic. I think the Air Jordan 1 and the Nike Dunk compliments his style well
you mean the pants he’s wearing ? it’s like work pants maybe dickie’s or ben davis. those are timeless people were wearing dickie’s since the beginning of time and people will were them long after we are gon
One of the best episodes of SS ever!! Engaging, entertaining, to the point…walk out with THE grail!!
Wow. He's very nice, energetic, wholesome and humble. Protect Johnny at all costs.
Dude. Johnny is so chill, and humble. To find out he only owns like 2 pairs of shoes says a lot about him.
Johnny Knoxville is so humble to finally come around to buy a pair of J’s that to me is the ultimate reward of a long hard working career.
I love how he starts, Hello I’m Jonny Knoxville, and this is sneaker shopping😂
Knoxville is too humble, man. Created one of the most legendary movie series out there, is worth 10's of millions of dollars, and only wears two different pairs of shoes and pants. Shows how he puts value into things. Love you, Johnny!
That gave me goosebumps. He seemed genuinely chuffed about buying those Jordan’s.
I really think he thought he was getting a used pair as in a “reduced price!” 🤣🤣🤣. He looked shocked at the price. Great episode…
FOH!
Jk has close to 100 mil net worth. He'll be ok
He should have bought a used pair of the newer model. He went for the pair from 94... Not many of those pairs around these days.
@@TalkingThrones dont be jealous, shoes are meant to be worn
Great episode and pick up! Knoxville is so chill and yooo, the man was lookin fresh at the end with his new Chicago 1's! Made me smile.
Very humble and down to earth. He’s just himself enjoying his best life
The fact that he chose the Chicago 1 from 1994 as his first pair of Jordans ever is iconic
So glad that he actually gonna run them shoes in to the ground. Real Gs wear their shoes
100% the best episode of this I've seen, Johnny Knoxville is a certified legend.
By far one of the best episodes. Captures the true love of sneakers.
I don’t think anyone can not like this man, he’s so humble💯 just hearing him talk takes me back to my childhood
We love Johnny Knoxville! So many memories growing up watching Jackass. He is OG now, and deserves the OG Chicago's
The most genuine guy ever on this show, Johhny fucking Knoxville. The dude is is friends with skateboarding legends for as long as anyone can remember, true OG.
I love that they went straight on! The kid in all of us knows how much faster we are in new shoes!
Knoxville: *doesn’t buy shoes for 4 years Also Knoxville: *spends 4 year shoe budget on one pair of shoes Knoxville is me, a sleeper sneakerhead at heart
Yep no shoes for 3 years then Ultraroyal Jordan 1s, pine 3's and Ultraboosts in a month.
$2,500 is more like a 14 year shoe budget.
@@chance2smoke for me it’s 50 years, I have better things to piss money on
@@chance2smoke i spent that is less than a year on shoes lol
@@garden0fstone736 time to get your $ up, not your funny up
Johnny was awesome in the rumble last night! It was pretty cool seeing him in a pair of red chucks in the ring! Epic!!
I love Johnny. Very humble guy... lol! He balling now with some RARE J'S. DOPE. GOAT
“What’d I do, break somethin’?” Love that line
I like that he stayed true to himself and his own style! Looking great still Johnny!
I’d say protect this man at all costs but the dude loves to kick his own ass…every dude in the late 90s early 2000s wanted to be like Knoxville!!! ♥️ amazing human being 💯
You'd have to protect him from himself lol 😂
Johnny what a legend. I have all the jackass dvd right here about to be watched again. ♥️
One of the best ones y’all have done. Bring back some more old schoolers if possible.
The fact that Knoxville seems so down to earth. That and he’s friends with Sean Cliver. Really glad he put those 1s straight to feet.
gawd damn, came in with some beat chucks, came out instantly putting on the chicago 1's OGs
A true legend
johnny's one of those guys that sticks so closely to what he wears that it becomes pretty iconic, i mean the graphic Tees flannel, army jacket cuffed jeans and converse are trademark johnny knoxville
I love how he immediately starts beating the chicagos lmao never change Johnny
People are going to be so mad when he destroys those shoes 😂😭 I love it 🔥💪🏻
What a stand up guy. Just wanna shake his hand and thank him.

Been watching sneaker shopping for a minute and this is definitely my fav episode 🔥 "What'd I do.. break somethin'?"
Johnny seems so humble. My respect to him
Johnny is one of the most genuine people on earth and definitely one of the best celebrities to come to sneaker shopping.
one of the best episode for me, straight forward.
I just finished watching Knoxville being interviewed by Conan. He was wearing red Chuck Taylors….the video was eight years old. Love this guy
Bringing Johnny to Complex was so awesome! I dare to say we all love Johnny, very down-to-earth guy. And Joe complementing Johnny was right on point. 👏🏼
Johnny is an absolute legend worldwide, was great to see him here, great guests so far Complex
what a genuine character, great guy
Very humble guy . Gotta respect that !
Much deserved,Mr Knoxville. So glad you chose those. Extra special that you never treated yourself to a pair in the past. Complex..great episode with a legend! Thank you!
Friggin love this guy! So humble and down to earth.
seeing Jonny happy ...made me happy !!!
Oh man hahaha Jonny is classic. The way he got into character talking about the royal rumble got me.
Johnny is the man. For a not so sneakerhead he went right for the BEST!!! My man knows what's up
Loved the energy he brings what a fun guy to be around
i love that he never lost his root personality and love his sense of style. worth around 50mill and still wears shoes into the ground
Seriously best episode ever ...Leave it to Johnny to keep it 100 and get the most iconic silhouette
This was so genuine and fun thank you!!!! 🔥
Love that the internet is rallying together again and remembering how legendary Jackass is. Hopefully Jackass Forever is good 🤞🏽
Jhonny is so humble ✨

You guys are killing it this season with these guests 🔥
