at $495/pair, it will only take a few pairs. Getting these made overseas is literally dirt cheap.

Taking over the clearance rack, maybe.
Their whole brand is trash.
Big Baller Brand?
What a joke.

The BBB logo is so eh.
The shoes are alright, I dig the ZO2 logo but maan, I ain't spending half a grand on that.
FOH with that.

Big Baller Brand sounds 98 to 2000 as hell.

My favorite is still the $200 flip flop.

See, if you dropped the BBB logo, I'd cop.
And price it at $175.
And have Kobe's name on it...
EDIT:
Wait, no, these are the ones I was looking for.
Damn, these are straight fire.

When you don't own factories in China, you gotta pay a little more and put your orders in months ahead, breh.

I'm not rooting for this kid to fail, but all this pressure and expectations is going to have people screaming "bust" if he doesn't immediately put up 20+ PPG.
$495 though? Good luck.

Even adjusted for inflation it doesn't look good:
Jordan 1: 149
AI's Question: 157
LeBron AZG: 146
Curry 1: 123
More than 3 times the price. Lavar is beyond delusional.

Obviously he's 3x the player compared to those scrubs.

It's hilarious how this shoe is basically the Kobe you posted and an imitation of the adidas BOOST midsole (in black) in the heel.
Every part of this shoe is ripped off except for the terrible logos.
I loved my Payless Shaqs as a kid.
This shit is crazy though. $500 shoes #fortheculture. Gtfo.
Lonzo Ball has about as much charisma as a limp dick.
Forgive my ignorance here. Would people buy these as a casual shoe? I mean obviously not at $500, but if they were more affordable is that what people would be buying them for, or are these specifically for use when playing sport?
Even if they were $200 it seems ridiculous to me unless you play basketball regularly.

Many people buy basketball shoes as casual shoes.
The hilarious thing here is that pro athletes and rappers (see: Kanye West and his YEEZY shoes) sell their shoes at prices in the $180-300 range.
This guy isn't even a big name yet.

LeBron also has no charisma and is CORNY, his SNL hosting gig proved how awkward and unfunny he is
marketing is more important than actual charisma
Casual yeah. Nobody hoops in Jordans.

LeBron has no charisma? Eh, I'm gonna disagree with that. Charisma aside, the man is the best basketball player on the planet and has been for a long ass time. That markets itself.
Lonzo Ball is no LeBron James by any metric. Besides, this "Big Baller Brand" marketing sounds like something dreamed up on a middle school playground.
LaVar has a GAF account?
Even comes in sandals? lmao

You are right because neither did Kobe or (especially) MJ.
Being a hyper-competitive monster is kind of antithetical to being funny.
I actually doubt it. I'd be surprised if they ever even ship. The website says they are preorders with a November delivery, which probably means they need a certain number to even get them made.

Gotta love his called shot on which team he is going to.
That colorway certainly doesn't match up with a Celtics, Suns or Sixers jersey.

Everything looks so broken and low budget, the whole site, the shirts, the background image, the mailing list image.
The shoes look okay, but way too expensive.

But if it had a Nike logo you'd think it was a work of art
