    "Kids" Don't Pay For Them
    They try to get their parents to pay for them. (And the parents are idiots if they do so).

    And an entire "other" group of kids don't pay for them, either
    They simply rob the first kids getting the shoes--of their shoes!!!

    A Lil' Thuggins' version of recycling, I guess.

    ...to quote a line from a Meatloaf song (...or was it the song's title?): "You took the words right outa my mouth"...or in this case my keyboard...
    Same stuff will happen as did for some brand of jacket a little bit ago...

    If they can blow 300 plus
    bucks on some kicks are aren't worth $30.00, if that, they can take a look at a trend taking place in DC that allows people to make small investments in commercial real estate, and become a part of a community who wants to get involved in rebuilding their city as an attractive shopping/dining/entertainment destination.

    May as well shop around and research something that may be worthwhile, than make impulsive decisions on a pair of sneaks that are NOT worth 300 plus bucks!

    Pathetic
    Just pathetic. $315 for sneakers. That cost 25 to make by kids in some poor country.

    I spend $22 at target and get 6 months out of them easily.

    I know why there are so many brokeazz people around....they spend they money on iPhones and expensive designer sneakers.

    I can almost buy an awesome chainsaw for 315. Maybe i'll do that....
