You aren't black, may not understand the science behind what he's getting at.


Lavar is whitewashed obviously,definitley doesnt understand the science behind designing shoes nikkas would be caught dead in:mjlol:

Instead of encouraging nikkas to stop buying expensive ass shoes...his answer is to create another Jordan,,by supporting a man who already sold out once:mjpls:? At least Jordans and Gucci flip flops can be resold or considered an investment.....until buying the Balls are considered charity and a tax writeoff,fukk what Game talkin bout with this ugly ass overpriced shoe with this c00n trying to exploit black people....he mr black man now when he need some shoes bought....support real black owned products folks:mjpls:

nah i understand it's about him owning his own company, but them shoes is too much money. dropping $400 for a pair of kicks you gonna sweat in isn't that important IMO.

You don't understand the science behind the price either. That's not a black thing though, that's just a dumb thing.

Not calling you dumb specifically but people in general.

Ain't nobody copping these to necessarily sweat in them...most sneaker collectors don't go out and play in the shoes they pay wait in line to pay 1,000's of dollars for. These shoes are symbolic of something bigger than what kinda shoes you put on to hoop in.

he right about jordan not doing shyt for the black community :manny:

I love Cheese Eyes but it ain't really about him specifically...he's right to juxtapose Jordan brand with BBB because he like many of us have seen people kill/get killed or behave way outta character for Jordan's shoes and the truth of the matter is all of it gets funneled back to the CACS who get their cut of the sales.

MJ didn't sign that deal knowing how it would all fall out, he didn't have malicious intent nor is he obligated to put his face out there as the black representative to anything but people also aren't obligated to be quiet about what they have come to represent.

i know people collect them instead of actually playing ball in them. i wear my kicks tho, i don't even have anymore Jordans cause i wore all them out. hypebeasts really ruined the kicks game.

damn it's brazy the kinda hate u get from your own people when u want to start a black owned enterprise :dead:

how hard is it to say "i'm not feeling the kicks and the price is too high for me but much success to the brother" but nikkas gotta do all the extra...

bad enough all the obstacles white supremacy put in our way but your own people gotta bring you down too...

i'd cop Jordans over them ugly shyts anyday :yeshrug:to each it's own.

This is a very telling statement.

How about this...I ain't copping Z02's or Jordans, ever.

I will however be making clothes for my kids/family and building a brand around what we represent. Thank you LeVar for the inspiration.

that's the best thing a person could do, now i ain't hating on him starting up his business and taking control of his own destiny, i hope he's successful with it. i just have a problem with the pricing, even with Jordans. i no longer cop AJ's due to the steep ass prices.
