A Look Back At Summer 2008’s Best Sneakers

NAME: NIKE HYPERDUNK MARTY MCFLY
RELEASE MONTH: July
COMPLEX SAYS: After years of online petitions and Nike Talk threads, the swoosh gave sneaker nerds a taste of Marty McFly (ayo!) on their new super-technical b-ball sneaker. The low-run colorway caused long lines outside of UNDFTD, and eBay sellers became rubber band men.

NAME: AIR JORDAN IV
RELEASE MONTH: July
COMPLEX SAYS: The O.G colorway of the IVs made people who hated on countdown packs immediately flip-flop. A lot of paper was parted with, and in closets everywhere the 19 is collecting dust.

NAME: ALIFE KENNEDY HI
RELEASE MONTH:June
COMPLEX SAYS: Courtyard sessions are the illest thing to do on a Sunday in the summer, and thanks to these Wallabees, don't be surprised if Ghostface starts politickin' on Rivington St. Think Clarks is scurred?

NAME: VANS SYNDICATE x W(TAPS) BASH
RELEASE MONTH: July
COMPLEX SAYS:This Jordan-inspired three pack notched the Syndicate line's first W of the season. Don't expect the premium chapter of the brand to slow down this fall.
