Summary

The ending of Sneakerheads season 1 does not really provide any satisfactory closure — it feels like a dead-end rather than a signal to further the story.

This recap of Netflix’s Sneakerheads season 1, episode 6, “D*ck Pic” — the ending explained — contains significant spoilers.

Check out the review.


The opening

The finale opens up with Devin and Bobby arguing like a married couple as always. The one question from Stuey; how did Jason Statham help them out of Hong Kong airport? Devin suggests that Jason is into Bobby which helped them get out of a bad situation.

Cleaning the sneakers

The famous sneakers “The Zeroes” have an incident from the start; sneaker enthusiastic Cole drops liquid over them. They have to ask an underground sneaker cleaner called Jason to clean them. People want to buy the sneakers instantly and Devin wants to accept the cash — Bobby thinks Devin is rushing for a decision and wants him to trust the situation.

Stolen sneakers

When the group returns to the sneaker cleaning station, the sneakers have been stolen by Cole. Bobby and Devin chase him down and get them back. Meanwhile, Stuey finds sneakers that Nori has been searching for years for. She kisses him for being so thoughtful.

The time comes to sell the sneakers. Bobby is embarrassed that Jason Statham has sent him a d*ck pick and the group laugh at him. Bobby wants to message Jason back and let him down gently but he doesn’t know how to… because he’s Jason Statham.

I have five pairs

Sneakerheads season 1, episode 6 offers one more twist to throw Devin into another defeatist place.

They take “The Zeroes” to the YouTuber who claims he wanted these sneakers. The YouTuber claims he already has five pairs of this sneaker and that he made that video a long time ago. Devin is mad as he’s about to lose his marriage. It seems that Bobby has failed him, again.

The ending

While in a sneaker store, Devin sees some sneakers that he’s always wanted and the man selling them has a pair free. He buys them. Devin returns home and tells his wife that sneakers are a big deal to him –he remembers a time he had these sneakers and met her — “These are the shoes I was wearing when I fell in love with you”.

His wife forgives him and then he sees that she’s bought a very expensive purse.

The ending of Sneakerheads season 1 does not really provide any satisfactory closure — it feels like a dead-end rather than a signal to further the story.
