Yeah - it's not like anyone else is going to pay for Vanessa Bryant shoes.
And, unless there is something in the 2016 contract to the contrary, I'm guessing that Nike can still sell all the Kobe gear it generated when Kobe (and his estate) was under contract.
Just a guess, but I'm guessing that Vanessa thought she was going to get Jordan-type money and Nike was offering Jimmer Fredette-type money.
ETA:
Just read the full article. From the article --
quote:
Nike, sources said, had presented an extension offer that was not in line with expectations of an ongoing "lifetime" structure similar to the Nike Inc. contracts held by both Michael Jordan and LeBron James.
The KEY WORD is LIFETIME. There was no f*cking way she was going to get Jordan or LeBron type money. And, whose lifetime does she think these deals cover? Once Kobe died, THAT WAS IT. His LIFETIME was over. No one is going to buy shoes designed by Vanessa Bryant. She's just a golddigging whore who let her husband go around raping women for a huge diamond on her finger.

DIAF you piece of filth.
Nike has been releasing limited quantities of Kobe's shoes on SNKRS at insane prices. Vanessa wants the Kobe line to be widely available at the standard $125-$150 price tag for people, including kids, to buy, which it hasn't been. That's not a crazy ask, it's what is right for fans and the general shopper.
It's not going to be a "vanessa bryant" shoe. It's still Kobe's brand and I bet different artists and designers would have had their imprint on the line going forward. Kobe's sneaker line are also very comfortable and great basketball shoes.
