No refunds, good luck with that

$500? Thats almost as dumb as buying something thats not on sale at Kohl's.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Theory is the $500 is just to drum up attention (working) and then they'll drop the price.

This.

I want the flip flops.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Looks like the non stick shoes you have to buy to work at a fast food restaraunt. Only these have golden lining. It'd be hilarious if Lonzo sucks or has a debilitating injury ala Shaun Livingston.

You're a complete dick for wishing Lonzo to have the kind of injury Livingston had. Nobody deserves that.

LaVar Ball is never going to have to "work" again....

 

[DJ Fieri]

Fucking blood sucking leech....

Hey @Mecca are those the ZO1's in your avy?

 

[Lakers+USC=#1]

At first, I was like this man is out of his mind, but then I changed my mind. Think about it, all it take is for a popular celebrity to wear them, and more people will buy. A lot of people will buy them just because they are high and want to brag that they can afford high priced shoes. The best part is, Lavar get 100% of the proceeds.

5,000 is pretty impressive. I've got to hand it to Ball (although we've got no clue if he's even made a profit because we don't know his costs and what the production agreement details about the total number to be produced, etc.) As much of an ass as he is, part of me hopes that he's blazing a trail for amateur athletes to make some money off themselves -- but honestly, the moment that tons of players start monetizing their names, the NCAA is going to have a major issue with it. (And I know I keep beating a dead horse about the NCAA eventually cracking down on this type of stuff, but I just don't see how they let this slide going forward.)

Fuck the NCAA. Those pricks make enough money on football and basketball athletes.

Marbury is still making $ because of how cheaply they can be made and the following he has.

Yup.

He's huge in China.

Some of his shoes look pretty decent too.

I like the look of the Ball shoes and flip flops but not at the price they are asking.

I don't wish it on him. I just said it would be funny. Obviously, I don't want it to happen.

And who gives a fuck if he does anyway? He will still be better off than you or I. You're a complete dick for trying to act all righteous defending the welfare of a guy who's soon to be a multi millionaire.

The shows are clean.

But, would you pay $500 for Michael Carter-Williams signature shoe?

Because that's the bottom of where Ball projects.

Obviously, I think he will be a better player.

But, until he shows it, fuck him and the horse he rode in on.

I love the kid. But, despise the father.

 

[DJ Fieri]

I'd pay 40-60 for the flip flops and 75-100 for the shoes.

I actually had a two pairs of Starburys back in college, when they were sold at Steve and Barrys. The shoes were so bad. Was the kind of shit you'd give out on missions to Ethiopians.
