that is 100% the best pickup we've seen on sneaker shopping, and straight to the feet, what a great guy Johnny is.

[MFDOOMSDAa]

As crazy as Knoxville is. He always seemed like the most sane one out of the crew when doing interviews.

[Stateever]

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

[YoursTrulyMew]

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

[electricfox]

Man, Knoxville was really showing off his old school, dad style humour at the end there. He's a treasure, no doubt!

[myqueries]

Such a genuine, grounded guy. And the fact that he wore the Jordans, then and there, was the cherry on the cake.

[keetsDV]

He definitely deserves those jordan 1’s after putting his body to entertain us over the years.

[dakotasimmons]

He’s a millionaire and still only owns 2-3 pairs of shoes, man’s got his priorities straight. Much respect to Knoxville.

[No-ScopeNibbligan]

Lots of people wouldve put those shoes on a shelf. Johnny was like, “ah yes new shoes i will wear them out”. Legend

[kylerocket]

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.

[frankyulloa]

Johnny keeps it real. Johnny is Punk. “I dont like that distressed look. You gotta earn it” so true Johnny . Chucks forever 🤘🏻

[Ocarafeio]

The best episode of the season so far. He's
shown that its not about meaningless purchase, quality not quantity.

[agm..]

Best episode so far, doesn’t care about the clout, only there to be himself!

[braindead]

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

[MrJasonacord]

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!

[stevenla]

props to him. his chuck taylor’s looks destroyed and now he copped the chicago’s 👏 well deserved

[rajatyadav]

Man is an absolute legend. Always enjoyed his movies. The episode we didn't know we needed

[MistaZipps]

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.

[Karmakamilia]

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.

[Richard__Cranium]

Knoxville is the realest dude out. This man deserves all the praise he gets.
