[$tacy]

I heard that Nike might lower the prices of the LeBron and KD lines.

Dudes stuck rocking the same Jordan's from 20 years ago. I love sneakers but the high end joints got my attention way more I've been copping Pierre hardy sneakers alot lately. Raf stan smith's are next up.

I'm saying all these retros keep re re re re releasing. I just bought my first pair of designer kicks The SLPs and they are straight. I just recently sold all of my Jordan's minus my 1s, 3-4, 11s. Just not the same anymore. Most of the time I'm in some runners or Stan Smith's anyway.

Steph kicks aren't bad, it's just the logo is trash. It make the shoe look cheap. UA needs to go back to the drawing board

Or they should make a attractive shoe like the old days.

They should! 200-275 is rediculous . I hoop in Kobe Xs and I bought all 5 pair for under 100 bucks each. Nike kept upping the prices till they were out pricing their consumers. The "sneaker head" wave may finally be over

 

[shogun]

They did price the signature lines like crazy and releasing all of those special / premium editions. Not surprised if a lot of consumers stayed away.

I like them.  

As long as you like them, that's what matters

But to me they are trash

That's not the problem. Problem is the crazy price increase and they got like 25 colors for each shoe now. They're over saturating the market and they're out pricing themselves.

 

[wavycrocket]

Remember when KD's were $95? . They went up about $20 dollars every year after these.

KD IVs were the resellers dream that year

 

[$tacy]

If u put out a good looking sneaker, people would probably pay the 200+ their asking. Those disgusting lebrons not worth 100.

 

[shogun]

If I had kids, no damn way i'm buying them $200 sneakers. I don't think my parents ever bought me a pair over $100.

Not when there's like 20-24 colors.




I remember KD said he wanted his shoes affordable because he couldn't get expensive shoes as a kid. That lasted long.

If he wanted that to happen he wouldn't have signed that big *** contract with nike. They gotta make that money back somehow. U right tho, they don't need to make so many colors of kicks but they also look worse year after year.

 

[datznasty]

KD says a lot of things then goes back on them later when money is involved.

 

[jape]

all those kd's are trash

To be fair, Kobe, LeBron and KD all have cheaper secondary lines for kids who cant afford the signature.

Equivalent to team Jordan's

 

[datznasty]

Zoom Soldiers (LeBrons) are still well over $100. I never seen any takedown Kobes, whatarethos

 

[District of Columbia]

KDs dropping back down to 150 this year iirc

The elite Bron 11s I think were 325 :x

That's more so of people perceiving more money to make a product better, than it being Nikes fault.

In some of the years where the main models were trash anyways, (mainly these last few Kobes sans one or two models) there really isn't much of a difference in quality or design. Kobe Venomenons or w/e look just like the main shoe.

In this very thread there were people saying the latest takedown LeBron is fire.
