    Those are kids shoes man, as dude said earlier i will never understand why people spend all that money on name brand clothes for their kids, then get mad at the kid for being a kid.

    No one is asking a grown man to wear a pair of SHAQS, but i would buy kid a pair.

    Bama ass ? :joy:

    In b4 some long tangent on material things and what other people care about and blah blah blah man ? that. No self respecting adult male should wear some gotdamn Shaqs

    You sound stupid.

    I don't wear Shaqs but I do wear affordable shoes of various brands. I don't go out of my way to purchase Nike, Addidas, or whatever the trend is. I know how to get fresh without being a ? rider.

    No self respecting male would clown another male for whatever he's wearing. Ole rupaul, e tv, joan rivers fashion police ass.

    The type of man who would wear them though is, a man who values his dollar or simply cannot afford to chase trends but would rather not walk around barefooted.

    Every last ? that cosigned, ethered, or goated this is a herb. NOT ONE of you ? have even picked up a pair of these ? let alone purchased and rock a pair. And I will clown what a ? is wearing. What you wear is how you represent yourself without speaking. Young dumb ? .

    iunno..
    i did none of the above.. but to not get something cause u think ud get clowned is kinda lame..
    and why are we as grown men still clowning what other cats is wearing based off what they paid for it??

    thats like me walking past a footlocker and laughing at everybody in it..
    or ? at the club who rocking H&M..

    let ? do them.

    If you a grown man and you werent taught how to dress and present yourself thats ok. ? learn on the fly. But ANY ? that is seen around me or with me will know how to carry themselves. ? is any adult male doing wearing sneakers so often that they go out and purchase these. That ? is dumb!!! All those positives and big ups and not one ? in here owns those ? . I'm not saying nobody should buy his shoes, I'm saying that ? front that cuz he's a black man we gotta support and love and ride or die gotta stop. They are ugly and poor quality. You know why ? wear red bottoms and balenciagas? Because they look good and are amazing quality. I own 2 pairs of sneakers. Gym shoes and garage shoes. Everything else is either a hard bottom shoe, boots, loafers, or boat shoes.

    It all boils down to what you're willing to pay for an item. I probably have spent 1k on shoes for my 6 yr old girl. My son will be the same. I grew up not having ? , so anything my kids want within reason they will have.

    these ? is more then capable..

    ? .... he wasn't just takin to celebrities. He talkin to the culture. He talkin to YOU Lls

    dedicating our lives to getting money just to give it right back, for someone’s brand on our body. When we spent centuries praying with brands on our bodies. And now we pray to get paid for brands on our bodies.

    So i can see why you've been touched.

    yeh.. that was the same ? ? in the other thread.. jus went to check..

    seems he takes his stance on whats convenient..
    i know ? jus like that..

    over there she's postin the above thinkin she's gettin at me..

    over here its "in before some long tangent on material things and what other people think blah blah blah"

    uhhhhh u mean like a tangent along the lines of what the award recipient jus went on ? !!?

    we know u go both ways ? ..
    but we go need u to pick a side ? ? ..

    Only possible response for this is "didn't read" or a gif with those words in it.

    Got damn....

    ? that ? ..
    he aint send me nothin for father's day..

    i always take the time to go out my way to son his ass and he rather remain a bitter ? like his single mom raised him..

    120 million might be a stretch considering that's 1/3 of the entire population.

    I can admit to being a brand ? and hypocrite when it comes to my jackets/shoes and my blackness. If that ? dont have tommy hilfiger spelled out bold and big I dont want to wear it. I came up off XJ900s, Prowings, attack force payless shoes all the way until 8th grade. There is no way in hell I would buy my kids or myself another cheap ass shoe as long as i breathe. Im not no super sneakerhead or nothings its just shoes like shaqs are poor quality, plastic, are not stylish with clothes and attract ridicule and fights. Besides if i want to buy sneakers and clothes cheap I go to the goodwill and my dollar will go further there than walmart and still get brand name ?

    lol @ the realness

    That is part of the appeal. For people who don't have $$ it's as close they might come to the real thing.

    You know how many people brought Chrysler 300's because, they looked like and were nicknamed "baby Bentley's"?

    These 2 posts are really what the thread should have revolved around in terms of the actual discussion. It's not the shoes being Shaq's or sold at Wal-Mart or Payless that would get somebody clowned. It's the designs itself. Shoes that look like knock of Jordan's w/ a Shaq symbol on them isn't really creative and that's the appeal of most tennis shoes to people who actually pay attention to that type of stuff. Said before on here I'm a sneaker head who doesn't ? with Jordans at all because majority of them ? just don't look that creative. Shaq been selling these shoes for a long ass time. Like somebody said go to any playground and I'm willing to bet you'll some kids running around in a few pair with no ? given though and any smart parent would buy Shaq's for their kids before spending a bunch of money on Nike ? their kid has no idea what the ? they are and will tear them ? up in 2 weeks tops.
