Even though I hate links, there is some copyright mumbo jumbo on the bottom of the article, so I will just give you guys the link. It's a news site, so people should be able to get to it...lol..

But, who the hell in their right mind pays $230 for a pair of shoes?

lol, I'm still PO'd that my boots were $80.00... I'm used to paying no more than $50.00 for my Vans :eek:

I could just see us devolving back to a time when people got shot for their sneakers and jackets .

Wow im not even going to lie those shoes aren't that great looking and I doubt the person will actually pay $230 just to wear them around he will either case em up and show em off or he will sell it for even more money on ebay and maybe rack in some dough for himself. Either way though its ludacris to wait outside for some shoes...

Seeing that only 23 were made, I would buy them. Not wear them though. $230 is definitely not a lot for anything that has less than 100 of it in circulation. I won't buy them though because I am not a snaker freak:p

Supposedly this is going to be the last year for the Jordan's. The ones which cost $230 are only to be sold at the top 23 selling stores of Jordan products and supposed to be very limited. To be honest I don't even like them. However the $185 ones he's holding in the picture below I really really like. I'm a lowtop running shoes kind of guy though I have paid up to $150 for tennis shoes. :p

I could just see us devolving back to a time when people got shot for their sneakers and jackets .People still get shot for sneakers, and jackets. At least in NYC people still get killed over stupid little things like that:(Anyway $230 is waaaay too much for me. I usually spend NO MORE than 30 bucks on my pair of sneakers:D

Yeah haven't you heard of those stories from prisons about shoes? Only in there they get shanked if they don't obey. Hell even OZ had an episode when Wangler stole some shoes from someone.

"I said give me your shoe's bitch!" :p

There's more than 100....


It's 23 at 23 different retail locations...so that puts it at 529 pairs.

I wouldn't spend $230 on a pair of shoes even if I never wore them. I mean I have spent like $150 back in the day on a good pair of basketball shoes when I played ball in high school but not anymore. I used to buy shoes about every 3 or so weeks because instead of cleaning my shoes when they got dirty I bought new pairs. I got like 3 or 4 pairs that I have never worn outside the house:omg:

Considering the rarity of the shoes, I would buy them if I saw them.
Most I have ever spent on shoes was $125 for Wallabee shoes. Most I have ever spent on sneakers was $80 for Nike Air Forces.
