First Look At The First Big Baller Brand Sneaker "ZO2" UPDATE: THIS SH*T COST $495

[O.T.I.S.]

You notice how none of these millionaire athletes are on some "yo this shyt is hot, I gotta cop them" steez.

They treating this almost like a charity case. On some "well, I applaud him for trying, so I'll go ahead and support it"


I don't know if that's the right message to get across about the brand. Nobody seems to be buying it because they legit think it looks hot.

Because they don't know if its hot or not

The shoe is not physically here... Theyre literally saying that it's more important that they're doing something this big/different than it is to sign under Nike like others and not see ashoe of yours released or make 100% of the profit nor own the company.

If shyt like this takes off all the majority owned white companies will be concerned.

Like I am saying, most people are trying to see if the QUALITY of the shoe will be worth the price. I think Yeezys and the resell of those are legit crazy BUT if you ever stepped inside a pair of Yeezys then you can immediately tell the quality makes up for some of the bullshyt you go through to get them.

If these shoes come out with hot colorways, high quality, and the Ball boys ball out like crazy then these shoes are going to sell regardless of the price (which I understand why theyre so high).

It's risky but who on the planet ever took this risk?

Ownership

how can you claim that when you just went to Nike begging for millions?

This isn't a sustainable business model unless he's willing to drain Lonzo's millions from his rookie deal and keep pouring it into this. He's going to need the backing of a major company.

This dude got a white wife, white kids and is selling shoes that only his white neighbors in Chino Hills are gonna wanna buy, but you in here stressing over what a cac wrote on Twitter about these

You realize CACS are exactly who he's marketing to, right?



Since you #BBB ride or die let's see your receipt of your purchase

Man the coli be flip flopping on the regular. One day mixed kids are black because nikkas subscribe to the racist 1 drop rule, the next day they're white because someone doesn't agree with their actions

Oh don't get me wrong, he's no doubt a smart brotha...but some genius whose thinking 5 steps ahead, nah I don't see that. But I don't mind being wrong and always root for my people to be successful entrepreneurs.

He has one of the top shows on ESPN buying his sneakers at full price to give away to listeners. Has that ever happened with any NIKE? Let that sink in for a second.

What do you mean "the coli" like it's this uniformed entity with one unified opinion

I don't know what you've read from other posters, I speak for myself, not the entire board. The kids are white. That OK with you?

 

[G-Zeus]

He's saying 4,600 is the ENTIRE SITE ORDERS, not just for the shoes. Reading is your friend

but one can order 200 shoes with ONE order

LeBatard is a mark he just on some anti Nike brigade he don't give a fukk about Lavar Ball

Middle aged cacs are Lavar's target audience though.

He's going to need the backing of a major company.

He just proved that he doesn't though. Major UFC fights and most championship boxing matches don't get the top sports headline today.

Show me the last sneaker company period that had a lead sports headlines (especially during a major sports league playoff). I'll wait.

These look better than them Lonzo shoes

Ehhh i dunno. Those legit look like sketchers to me. The Lonzos look atleast decent to me.

I thought the original Starburys looked decent though and i always respected the hell out of him and Shaq for trying to put out quality ball shoes at affordable prices.

 

[Big Boss]

Talking about it on first take right now

 

[STAN JONES]

I was gonna cop a pair but $500 kinda steep

Probably just gonna cop a hoodie instead

 

[BlackMajik]

It would be hilarious if instead of people getting the shoe they got a shoebox and inside its just a picture of a shoe with an autograph on the back
