Bill Burr, legendary comedian and part-time sneakerhead hater, went on another hilarious rant about sneakers on his latest Monday Morning Podcast. The episode, which you can listen to below, runs for over an hour and covers a variety of topics, his analysis of why 40-year old sneakerheads exist being one of them.

The part starts at around the 9:30 minute mark and lasts for four to five minutes. Burr starts off by saying that his sneaker game has been elevated thanks to his friend buying him a gold pair of Nike Air Jordan 1s.

He continues by talking about his good friend and fellow comedian, Paul Virzi, a big-time sneakerhead. But Burr feels bad making fun of him because “It’s like making fun of somebody’s religion. This is what that feels like,” he says.

Burr then theorizes as to why there are grown men that obsess over sneakers, claiming it has to do with how they were raised. “When I grew up you got a new pair of sneakers at the beginning of the year and you were actually self-conscious about how clean they were,” he says. “You just wore them for the whole year. Your mother would buy them half or a full size too big and that was it.”

“Maybe all of those kids are in therapy now. ‘I just can’t understand why my mom couldn’t just buy me another pair of sneakers for thanksgiving or Christmas?’” he continues. “And then they go ‘Someday I’m going to have all the sneakers I ever wanted. And every day is going to look like the first day of school.’”

As hilarious as Burr thinks it is that grown men line up for sneakers and dress from the ground up, he finished off the segment saying his criticism is all in good fun. “I’m just fucking with you sneakerheads. I respect it but there’s just another part that’s so fucking funny,” he says. “Watching grown men in their forties still dressing like they’re waiting for a school bus.”

Burr finished it off by saying, “It’s the dress-down generation gone fucking nuts.”

The comedian is no stranger to rants about sneakerheads, having taken issue with it on several occasions in the past.
