Bill Burr Roasts Sneaker Culture on Complex Shopping Trip

Bill Burr’s Hilarious Complex Sneaker Shopping Rant

Bill Burr recently appeared on Complex for a sneaker shopping trip that turned into a hilarious roast session. While promoting his new Hulu special, Burr shared his unfiltered thoughts on sneaker culture—just weeks after Bad Friends made their own visit.

“This is where this country is—people’s 401K is their laminated sneakers that they’re never going to wear,” Burr joked, poking fun at collectors who treat shoes like investments.

Despite his skepticism, he did admit to liking some of the shoes. Holding up a pair, he cracked, “These are the Bruce Jenner ones—when he was just starting to feel like Caitlyn. You can throw a javelin in these, you can do a high jump.”

His mix of sarcasm and genuine curiosity made for an entertaining segment, proving once again why Burr remains one of comedy’s sharpest voices. Whether he’s ranting about sneakers or everyday life, he always keeps it real.
