If they sell 10,00 pairs of a $500.00 basketball shoe, that's the pricing experiment Nike needs and the next LeBrons will have a $600.00 option
Nike has already increased the prices of their shoes and received some backlash 5 years ago when they were trying to sell Brons for $300 and now they're back down to around $180. Lonzo selling these at $500 doesn't prove anything. Right now they're just receiving hype because it's just the "in" thing to talk about. What happens next year when everyone is tired of the "Ball" storyline? What happens when Gelo is riding the pine at UCLA and Lonzo is rookie on a struggling team just trying to get acclimated to the NBA?

Just wondering why you'd price at $600 what you can't sell at $180. Going that high would be bad for LeBron's image and would likely throw the entire Nike basketball lineup in disarray.
Read what me and L@HH were talking about. It's not about LeBron.

It would prove something if it was successful.

i dont care what you say.. to go from not only saying it but then actually designing that shoe independently is a boss move to say the least.
regardless of what you think about the design, recognize that this is a revolutionary move and its done by a black man.
its not checkmate yet.. but definitely check. game changing move and i salute that.
:mjlol:.....its not hard to make your own shoe design at all....but when your shoe design is a knock off of another one and you are trying to charge $500 for it.....I dont respect that shyt at all.....nothing is revolutionary about that at all.....some of you clowns go overboard with your praises just for daps.....:russ:....

Is it possible the price is high because they are doing it independently and not with the Big 3?:patrice:


That's exactly why it's high.


But they're marketing it as though the price is high because it's luxury, not because they're trying to operate without taking a loss on the initial run of shoes.
