I have a big addiction to sneakers so when i heard about this show it was an instant watch, after watching it all. I have to say its a pretty solid show now of course there isn't any big money actors or anything like that, so i wasn't expecting anything really jaw dropping. I was really impressed with the show, and i'm ready for season 2!!

good background noise

I usually like to have background while i paint and this was good for that, the plot was pretty simple to follow even while i wasn't paying attention so i quite liked it, the acting wasn't the best but it really didn't bother me too much. good for listening to while your main focus is on something else, i'm not sure if it's something i'd watch while actually paying attention through.
What I've excepted

I laughed throughout this tv show

Sneakerheads is Hilarious and brilliant! I thought this was the best comedy I've seen in a long while. It really made me laugh out loud .Sneakerheads is a great combination of comedy and drama and also a little bit of more fun. Netflix wins on this one you must watch this show.
Great feel good show, with some cool cameos & funny moments.

This show was purely fun to watch, its almost like a coming of age story where the main character goes back to revisit his past by revising
visiting his collector lifestyle and the show makes it feel ok to enjoy things that others might think is childish. The show reminds us, growing up doesn't mean you have to give up your hobbies. There was just something relatable and nice about the overall story ark and it leaves you feeling good by the end and happy for the main characters adventure.
Definitely enjoyable and worth a watch, especially if you enjoy shows like "How to make it in America" Wish there was another season but it closes up well so you don't need one.

Good to watch on a boring weekend.

This show is just terrible. We have a main character who is so dumb he keeps repeating the exact same mistake of trusting someone who never gets anything wrong. It gets so annoying that by the time i got to episode 4 I couldn't even stand the two of them anymore. This was a complete and utter disaster. The worst writing I have seen in a while. I only watched it because it was short.
Fun binge worthy show. More please!

Not sure what the negative reviews are about. It's a fun show. Funny and fast paced. Just the right stuff for these negative times. And if you're into sneakers then it's a plus. Glad they finally made a show for us!
I'm not a sneakerhead, so I found this to be all-right

Sneakerheads is a Netflix comedy series, that follows a squad of sneaker enthusiasts through a series of hijinks, and a quest to find a rumored legendary sneaker. I don't know much about the sneaker art form, and I was hoping this show would give me some insight, but unfortunately, that's not the case. With a cast of up-and-comers, the series might be aiming for a younger crowd, which would explain why I couldn't really put myself into it.
It manages to drag out a story, while also being quite contained. The dialogue and character development is very weak, and requires suspension of disbelief. At multiple times, this quite clearly came off as a scripted TV show , with very little attempt made to build believable plot lines. The two leads, Devin (Allen Maldonado) and Bobby (Andrew Bachelor) are portrayed as ex best friends, but there wasn't too much chemistry there. I don't really understand why they would continue to hang out together, which is also a result of poor plot design. Bobby's schemes in the episodes are so out of the box, and completely plot heavy, that I'm surprised Devin goes along with it. We also have Nori and Stuey, the rest of the squad, as comic relief, and they do make the show a lot more fun. There's a very clear "We're the Millers" vibe, which usually works in their favors. The series also has a few fun celebrity cameos, whom I assume, are real-life sneaker heads.
All things considered, this is an all-right show. My opinion is probably supported by the fact that I don't know this culture; Someone who is a genuine sneaker-head, or a fan of King Back, may be thoroughly entertained. I can give it a pass because its run-time isn't exhausting (6 episodes, 20 minutes), so you don't lose too much time. For a vast majority, this works better as background content, while doing chores. 6.5/10

Poorly Written, Acted and Executed

I'm a "sneakerhead"; a collector and reseller (as it's been dubbed). I wanted to like this show, I thought it would really focus on the collecting and selling of sneakers and the present day scene; the "bottling" on online stores, the struggle to buy at retail, the many, many disappointing days when you try for hours to buy one pair in your size, but fail. I mean, it touched on this (and turns out the entire premise was the main character trying to buy one pair, but this is easily forgotten in amongst the tired jokes and unbelievable decision making of the characters), but I found the show to more about how many cameos and name drops could be written into each episode in at attempt to be the next "Entourage". The protagonist spends his family's vacation savings on an unpaid storage locker in an attempt to score big but all falls apart when the shoe boxes in the locker only contain one shoe and not the pair. Any sneaker head would know that you could EASILY sell one Nike Air Mag with its box for big money even if it wasn't in a pair - but the so called "OG sneakerhead" main character, who is set up to be a big player who has left the scene, completely ignores this fact and too-easily concedes that his annoyingly acted best friend's idea to follow pipe dreams is more logical than trying to sell the many "grail" shoe and boxes to recoup his losses is a better option.
A side note: I found one of the most irritating parts of Sneakerheads to be it's celebrity cameos or lack there of (Mark Wahlberg?). If you're going to try to stuff in as many "real" cameos as possible, why, so blatantly, throw in a replacement that neither looks, or sounds, like the real thing?

I see a lot of people giving this negative reviews. I understand. The acting is mediocre. The plot is predictable. But it's not for everyone. Netflix makes a lot of shows people don't like. But honestly Netflix is smart. They make productions for lanes. If it's not your lane generally you won't like the show. But you will check it out! This was my lane. I'm in my 40's and I have over 150 pairs of kicks.
Hot burning garbage
doouchebigaloow27 September 2020
An excellent showcase of what to look for in nonexistent acting. Go to the dentist instead of watching this sorry excuse of a "show". Hopefully we are all put out of our misery and this bad joke ends after one season.
Hit and a miss

Pretty bad
kevinbaker-0993426 September 2020
Cut corners big time. Even on the review Netflix wrote that Devin(lead character) wanted 13s, but they were Jordan 4s. Not to mention the Mark Walberg fake, and the horrible ending to
Episode 5. It's horribly scripted and nothing close to real life sneaker culture or worth watching.

Not unless you are desperate should you watch this.
yogaisthepath5 October 2020
This show is so bad that I had to come and review it. Even if you are a sneaker head you will find it hard to enjoy this. The story is piss poor, the acting is straight up annoying. The sound track isn't even good. It infuriates me that these people got paid to do this movie. Do, not, watch this flaming trash. I stopped after episode 2.
King Bach is amazing
