Personally, I would pay $150 max for these
View media item 2426018View media item 2426021
But I really wouldn't clown someone for paying $200. They remind me of Pippen IV's.
View media item 2426023But yeah that $495 price is wildin.

This dude Lonzo is gonna have the most pressure packed rookie year since probably Bron:x
He won't just be trying to play well for his own sake but also for the future of his Pops brand
Lonzo gonna be averaging 6ppg and have a $495 sneaker that no one will buy. A good chunk of his rookie contract will be going back to LaVar to pay off loans and creditors.

Bruh, people on this site and outside of it gladly pay 500-1000 and more for shoes that retail at 250 and less.

yeah with actual built up name brand recognition that sells out instantly
this logic is extremely flawed, he is selling a basketball sneaker meant to be a basketball sneaker not some Jordan/Nike retro or Adidas Kanye wore

I feel like if Lonzo doesn't catch up to his own crazy, through the roof hype that Lavar created, he's going to be overseas with the quickness. At this rate Lavar may be having a Ball Stadium built that he will try to see to the league.
this is crazy, the only thing I can take away from this is you have to be fearless in your ambitions man.
Talk about putting it on the line, Sheesh

Isn't that that Kobe stan who's an NTer? I feel like I remember dudes exposing him for lying on his lifestyle a while back

I saw the black ones that Lonzo took a shot w/...
But i hear that's a prototype... Those were pretty
, though.To be real, I'm going to cop regardless. May sound hypebeast-ish and foolish, but I will forever support the brand just off strength of the precedent that papa ball is trying to set.

Also, y'all bugging if you don't people going to cop these just to show they have enough money to cop.
Guarantee you all types of celebs will be rocking.
$500 is steep. I feel like if it settled in the $300 range, these will sell.

Yea, that's why I said "and outside".
This initial run is obviously geared to a certain demo. You don't think everything Lavar has been doin is to build up the image and brand?
Who was the last dude coming out of college with this much hype and visibility?

I think he's gonna sell 500 pairs.
Gonna make less money than the shoe contract Lonzo could have got though.

He is considered a top 3 pick. He is def recognized for his game.

I think the signed 995 ones could be worth a ton of $$$ if lonzo goes down as one of the GOATs though

Dawg the average folk doesn't know Lonzo like that. They see Lavar more than Lonzo. You gonna see at CNN or some random news station "basketball prospect father selling $500 shoe" as a headline.
They gonna put that Shaq roast tweet up there too
