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

[Buggsy Mogues]

Respectable to who? And how can you say a sneaker that you never touched or even seen in person isn't a quality product? And why does his product have to help the masses, he never said this was a charity line, this is business. How does Air Jordan, Louis Vuitton or $500 Raf Simons Adidas help the masses? How are they not preying on idiots and suckers? I find it amusing that the black man behind #BBB is held to standards you guys never held Phil Knight to. Knight could be a rapist for all we know, but it doesn't matter we're just buying the brand, right?

And I wasn't speaking to you with that quote Bilz i was speaking to @Buggsy Mogues who said:



Well it has happened so I expect you to do what you said you would. I'm a woman and I can only respect a man if he stands on his word. I see you dapping up every post that discredits #BBB but I have yet to get a rep from you. So I'll be waiting for my reps.

That post you're quoting wasn't in response to you, so why tf would I rep you?


Not to mention he hasn't played a game wearing the shoes yet.

I wish ppl would stop saying support black businesses when referring to this guy. Unless he employing black folks to create these shoes and making it affordable for every day blk people to purchase.

Plus he's married to a white woman

While you guys are in here popping shyt and discrediting a man that has done everything with his brand that he said he would do I got an update for you.

I got the word that an order was made today by a guy from New York named Shawn Carter for 100 pairs of ZO2 in various sizes.

I know they are below you guys standards but I guess that guy Shawn really likes the sneakers. You may hear about it later.

:BBBUMAD:

Alot of folks here just like to crack jokes and clown on this for attention but fail to understand the business side of things so looking at alot of these post as a black man is embarrassing.

So many missing the mark. Jesus fukk yall. Go read Black Labor White Wealth then come back and make a solid post instead of clowning for attention.

"For the culture" yet the shoe is $495

Shaq's got a point. Let's stop thinking Lavar is doing anything to help the culture or young kids.

He's stuffing his pocket. Couldn't care less about young Black kids. He married a white woman and raised his kids in the suburbs. He's using this black entrepreneurship shtick as a ploy to sell more shoes.

I hope you all don't fall for the bait.

Shaq don't have no fukking point. Only broke nikkas agree with Shaq. If you can't afford them and or don't want them cool don't buy them. shyt its nike that cost 170 parents can't buy guess they should lower their prices to 50 so everybody can cop them? FOH shyt don't work like that. That's why they have different offerings on dang near everything to satisfy those at different financial levels.

The folks that understand how shyt works should now leave the thread and let the dregs of society figure this shyt out on their own. They don't wanna learn and base everything off emotion we can't fukk with them no mo.

All this talk about supporting this dude and "black businesses", aaaannnnddd I still haven't seen one receipt.

Just like I thought. None of ya clowns are about that action.

If big baller brand makes 20 million out the gate. A lot of ballers gonna start their own shoe line

 

[Supa]

Them boys been dodging that question since LaVar posted the price. They ain't even buying the t-shirts, but pretend like us not wanting that shyt equates to us being c00ns. @SadimirPutin been trying to get anyone to post receipts and all he been getting is this shyt

Ask yourself brehs, why hasn't a single coli member copped any apparel? Surely Lavar's most vocal supporters believe in the brand enough to buy it. Could it be that:

A. The clothing doesn't appeal to their sense of style
B. They think the clothing is too expensive

So the same reason we're criticizing BBB is essentially the same reason why they're not buying.

That is why people are with it. nikkas need to stop making deals with these white companies and create their own using vertical business structure get the materials from black people hire black people then put the money back into the community. We have to do this for ourselves stop depending on white daddy (Nike and others) to give you everything. We play all the damn sports we need to run everything around them 100%. THAT is the point.

GROUP. ECONOMICS.

READ. MORE. BOOKS.

They do, where is that? Is it the $60 tshirt? The $100 hat? The $500-$1200 shoes? Oh it must be the sandals for 220?



If you like what Lavar is doing then go ahead and support him. Don't make shyt up that's false.

Not to mention he hasn't played a game wearing the shoes yet.

But two weeks ago you clearly said in your own words:

The idea that he will walk on the court day 1 next year wearing BBB shoes is laughable. If he legit doesn't sign with one of the major companies and actually does that, @ me when that happens and I'll rep you into bolivia.

Man, there is nothing wrong with being wrong about something as we all make mistake and have projections that are off. It takes a man to admit his shortcomings, that's if he has a dikk and balls between his legs and considers his word to be worth something. It is clear as day that what you said was laughable two weeks ago is now a reality. So after rolling out and selling a huge number of shoes on the first day he's going to turn around and sign with Nike or Adidas before the draft now.
:drakedtales:
You got it though I'll cease engaging you. I can't believe a grown ass man can't stand behind his word even on an anonymous forum where no one can judge him.

Live stream said he don't wear sneakers but he will buy them and put them on his shelf because he's light skin


No 9 then said he would buy the shaqs because that's all he can afford because star doesn't pay him

Lmao number 9 is a clown
