I dont think those shoes have anything to do with Liverpool FC. The club has no affiliation with Nike.

Thats not even a Liverbird...

Doesn't LBJ own a piece of Pool?

He does... but those shoes have nothing to do with LFC, except that a minority owner wears them...

Well yeah.. Apparently it was a prototype leak (but I'd say probably a fake) as the trophies on the bottom are modeled after the current trophy.. which LP hasn't won. And Nike can't use the liverbird because of the deal Pool' has with Addidas.

But I found it pretty hilarious.

Somehow LBJ got around the restrictions enough to make these headphones though.

Those are pretty sweet beats

You don't have to go around restrictions when you're an owner and beats aren't considered apparel or gear. So Adidas can't say anything, I wouldn't think.

You hate Lebron more because he made a shoe of the team he owns shares in? Makes sense I guess. :rollseyes:

Ugly fricking shoe though.

You hate him for licensing issues causing his shoemaker to not be able to use the logo? Damn, man. You must have had some major trademark trauma.

They're God-awful...but in fairness, even as a huge Liverpool supporter, I'd never wear any shoes that have the team logo/name on them. That's just trying waaay too hard.

Dislike LeBron and hate Liverpool, but the headphones are pretty badass and gifting them to the team was a pretty cool move.
