We saw this video on overpriced shoes, specifically Jordan, and Stephon Marbury's affordable Starbury shoe. Each were made with the same material, but the price range between the two is outrageous.(Jordan=$150 and Starbury=$15)
Marbury's mother came across an not so hard issue with her son when he was little between choosing Jordans or food for her family. Clearly she chose food over a $150 pair of shoes.
The want of this shoe brand is ridiculous, since the supposed "need" for them is not necessary. Meaning kids want Jordan's shoes for the looks and because they think it's hot, and if you don't have them you're not cool. Basically putting pressure on the kids to have this superficial "need" for these shoes.
I buy fashion because the brand is actual comfortable. I buy Adidas or New Balance because there isn't a pressure to look cool simply because I don't care what everyone else thinks about my shoes. Plus, they feel as though the are easier to walk in, for me.
