I don't buy Jordans because I think they cost too much but I don't ? on the next person if they want to buy them. I applaud Marbury for trying to bring affordable shoes to people in need of them. I mean he has to make sure those shoes are good though. Can't be selling shoes that fall apart easily and ? . People always want to get at Jordan for his prices but be letting other ? slide. Look at buying suits. You have Jos A. Bank which are pretty affordable, then you have Brooks Brothers and Armani which costs like a thousand per suit and ? . You know the materials in those suits didn't cost nearly that much. Once you slap a certain name on some ? the price jumps. Steve Harvey has a couple decent suits but ? don't like them because they're Steve Harvey suits lol. I'll say this, these times are the best to get your hands on affordable quality ? . I remember growing up in the 80's and 90's when everything was high as ? . Man these days you can go to Ross or somewhere like that and get a nice outfit with shoes for around 60 bucks. I can go to the Nike store and get a good pair of shoes for 30 or lower, you just have to know when to go. Do your thing Marbury but you don't have to ? on Jordan to do it.

Thats a high school comment. Its not that people who feel Jordan's are expensive can't afford them, its how they value them and what they're willing to spend. I rather spend $250 towards a vacation then spend on some Jordan's. -

Lol@this dude, What type of shoes I wear when i'm vacation? Something comfortable and something casual to go out in at night. Yes you actually could spend $250 on a vacation to a nice city, depending on where it is, even though I spend more that.
I mean you wouldn't know about that because you're spending most of your money on shoes, I guess you can say you're better than the people you ride the bus with cause you got the latest pair of Jordans. -

Exactly. Thanks for telling me about myself. Can't remember the last time I spent $250 to go on vacation. LMFAO -
Lol! I don't buy Jordans because I don't want to buy them! You can buy 5 to 10 pair of good shoes for the same price as one pair of Jordans. Lol at people who feel like you either buying Jordans or Payless shoes. I went to the Nike store today and bought a pair of Lebrons for 42 dollars. I'm sure they're old but still. You're paying 150 or better for Jordans while I can take that same money and get 2 good pair of shoes and a couple outfits!

Well, the price is what makes them exclusive. It appeals to humans need to feel special or unique. Who would buy 10 dollar jordans? Nobody.

? ur shoes prob need a V8
To keep they diet straight lol -
Why can't Jordan have a successful sneaker line? Why can't he sell them for $250? I absolutely agree his business model.
People have to stop being victims in any aspect of life. My parents NEVER bought us Jordans. They were always too expensive. End of story. If you can't afford them, don't buy them. Understand that they are just shoes... Meaning? You don't need them.
Dudes killing for them. Y'all really blaming Jordan for that? -

It's not so much about what you buy, it's what you don't buy. I know grown men with a closet full of Nikes and Jordans in their mama's basement; homies, who buy sacs everyday, but won't buy Kendrick's album because music is "too expensive." I remember I spent a week hanging with my one friend who was going out to the bars and lounges all week, then he got evicted the next week. It's about priorities.

Everybody and they momma got the same pair of Js when they come out. Unique is not the word i would use. I do spend money on sneakers, but not Jordans. I'm actually trying to be exclusive. There are high end shoes with cost much more if you want to feel special though. -

Youz a dumb azz ? . Not just internet dumb, but like ignorant set my ppl back in real life dumb. First off, we already know ur ignorant ? talking points like "aint no handouts", "I'm gettin $$$ & y'all ? broke". Stupid ? look like the real life Riley Freeman smhyellowtapesport wrote: »blackamerica wrote: »
The whole "but he gettin money while you ? broke" argument exposes your inner ? . They're are ppl of other races, white, hispanic & asian that are wealthy & are STILL heavily invested in their respective communities. But for some particular reason, ignorant azz negroids like you, cosign rich black celebs turning their back on their own smh. I wish you ? would magically just disappear from planet earth sometimesyellowtapesport wrote: »Only a few good businessmen in here smh...
Only broke ? complain about ? they want costing too much. If you want it...do what it takes to get it.
OR, buy them WACK ASS Starbury's LMFAO
So I guess you're helping your community by typing this ? right?
IF, notice the CAPITAL IF, I was broke and wanted some J's...I'm not gonna complain about how much they cost. I'm gonna do what it takes to get them J's. That goes for car, house, shirt, boxers, ? even advanced degrees.
I'm gonna assume you a grown man so how can you feel like one when you still expect a handout from another grown man?? Most celebs have a craft that they perfected (w/out U) to make money and you still think they owe your broke ass anything? Not cosigning...just not sitting with my hand out.
Secondly, black folks ain't asking MJ for no ? handouts ? . The black community MADE MJ into the icon he is. The LEAST thing he can do is release a statement saying he doesn't want any violence connected to his brand. A STATEMENT. You so focused on bragging on money you prolly don't have, you didn't even read my post. We don't want MJ's money
Third, youz a ? ? . Just because some of us are aware of the pitfalls our ppl face don't make someone broke. ? like you are why black folks can't move forward. You're poorly educated, with no sense of self.
GOAT post.
