Coach Rab Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 The most I've ever paid for a pair of shoes for work or pleasure or sports is $85. It was a pair of orange (secondary) and gray (primary) NIKE Flex. I love those shoes and 2 years later they are still in excellent shape. So not sure what a $200 pair would give me that I don't get out of my $85 pair... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So not sure what a $200 pair would give me that I don't get out of my $85 pair...Started getting more active lately and picked up running. I'll spend about $135 on a good pair of running shoes (Asics or Brooks), but that's where I'll max out. If I'm gonna run 10 miles a week, I want to make sure they last and are comfortable...

JustAFan11 Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 If I ever see anyone wearing an article of clothing that says "big baller brand" they are getting made fun of. No respectable man refers to themselves as a big baller! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of kids these days will buy a pair of sneakers for $200, never wear them and keep them boxed up, and then resale them in 5-10 years for twice that much. Especially the signature shoes because they make a new model every year. For example, Kobe's first signature shoe is going for $550.... You could have bought those for maybe $100 when they first came out. We are on Kobe 11's which when first hit the market were $200, and those will go for even more in the years to come. We call these kids "sneakerheads". Big Baller Brand will never reach that level, they will probably partner with FUBU or Sketchers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stoney Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 How long before Lonzo Ball cuts his dad off? I had to look the kids name up because all you hear is Lavar being thrown around the media.

He'll cut him off as soon as Magic has to have a one-on-one convo with him about his dad running his yapper around the facilities too much. More likely to happen right before Lonzo gets a max-deal.
