Pro NBA Baller Introduces $15 Basketball Shoe
Somewhere in China, a small child is smiling for a few lingering seconds before he goes back to his bloody fingertips and an unusually stubborn swoosh…
B-Ball superstar Stephen Marbury plays for the New York Knicks. He also released his new fashion line two weeks ago, and it exclusively contains items that cost $15. Even the “Starbury 1″; the very shoes he will be wearing to do battle on the court this upcoming season.
Compare that to some other NBA players whose shoes retail for well north of $100. Marbury has teamed up with Steve & Barry’s University Sportswear, which will sell the line exclusively.
Marbury says, “It means a lot, [Steve & Barry] have the same vision that I have, which is to change the world, change the world of sneakers and lifestyle. We’ve created a lifestyle for everyone for an affordable price.”
Steve & Barry’s co-founder and co-CEO Barry Prevor says, “This is the highest-performance shoe that you can make for any amount. The technology is state of the art and was designed for the way that Stephon plays.”
Well, Jordan ($175), Garnett ($149),Kobe ($140), LeBron ($125), the ball is in your court. Are any of the kids?
