I can't even get upset with Lavar anymore. He's always capable of doing something dumber.

Pricing basketball shoes for a player yet to be drafted at more than DOUBLE the retail price for shoes of guys that have MVP awards on their resume like Lebron, Durant, Curry, and MJ.....

Not even ironically. Maybe Lavar's realized this ain't gonna work and doesn't want to sell any(literally) to not piss off the shoe companies.

That was my favorite part. It's like when you see a really good deal on Oakley's or Rayban's and then realize it's some shady Chinese website.

Yes that too, and if he would be liable for any of that

I feel bad for him honestly. Can't choose who your parents are

I'm willing to bet that they end up never producing the shoes due to lack of interest from people willing to spend $500 on a shoe or $220 for a pair of flip flops. Wonder if they're going to refund the money from the few orders that get placed

Only $495? Lavar really knows the market well, it seems.

This is what happens when you don't have a major brand manufacturing your shoes, shite is expensive when you don't own factories in Asia.

This is going exactly how I wanted it to go. Sucks that his son is the one that's going to suffer the consequences.

I would say he does

paying some kid in china $.10 to make a shoe and selling it at the most extreme markup to people who can't afford to spend that kind of money on shoes. it worked for nike

this is one of those instances where he either REALLY knows the market or doesn't know the market at all
