Marbury Exposing Jordan?

[BiggWebb79]

So let me guess Steph gonna want y'all to get a track phone instead of that iPhone or Galaxy next. He know damn well if those $15 was moving like hot cakes back in the day they would've been $115 right now

I'm black and I've never owned a pair of jays or chucks. Never really been my thing. A little played out tbh.

I agree with him but people won't care. They'll try to justify it "that's not my problem," "I'm a sneaker head son," "that private prison stuff isn't true" blah, blah, blah
Jordan is a opportunist that hasn't done shyt for his community, phuck em.

The thing is : Jordan has created the perfect brand . He got mind control over nikkas . Some nikkas dont feel comfortable without Js . Some females cant buy baby shoes if they arent Js. You can show them the shoe being put together by the asians for $5 , it wont matter. They gonna buy em regardless

wtf do Chucks gotta do with this ?

Are you saying : "I'm black and I've never owned a pair of Js or chucks, you know, black people shoes"?

Yeah you are, because you started with "Im black"

You birdbrained nikkas still running with that fugazi ass "Jordan invests in prisons" story

If you think sneakers are the only thing with an absurd markup you are a damn fool.

True, never understood the obsession for some though. It's like, 80% of the joints are ugly. Take that jumpman off and replace it with a reebok symbol and see how many people buy them. My little cousin talking about " I just went online and signed up for my shoes" lm like dude, " go sign up for a college or trade credit, thats the only time I wanna hear about you putting in effort to sign up for some shyt"

based on the numbers, jordans sell close to if not more than apple and there is an extreme amount more negative reaction towards apple(the asians jumping out of their building) than there is towards jordans.
most people could care less about jordans compared to the vitriol that apple gets. this isnt tech savvy it's just not being a mollusk

Q4 2014 apple had 182.8 billion dollars in sales.
2014 Jordan brand had 2.5 billion dollars in sales.

"close to if not more"

Jordan has major investment in his shoes. Stop acting like Nike has full control.

 

[Bawon Samedi]

Have to voice my opinion.

Though I agree where Marbury is coming from, but lets be real he's just mad that nobodies buying his shoes.

I remember back in middle school those shoes were a fad for about a year, but then afterwards you would get clowned for wearing them.

And to be honest J's are overrated as hell... Like most basketball shoes...

Where's the story about them prisons?

who dat in ur avi?

 

[blockburna420]

Ill never buy another pair of Jordans again.

They're increasing the price of the sneakers and using lower quality materials...but claiming they are higher quality as a selling point.

 

[Unknown Poster]

Wait, so he using the same slave labor factories that jordan brand/ nike is using.

If he was using...lets say the us or uk based factories that new balance uses his shoes wouldn't be $15.

More like $150. Got to recoup production costs somehow.

It's not right...but until industry comes back in America like that (which it should) that's where the majority of the industry is going to have their products produced.
