cool shoes subtard!

Those things make Crocs look stylish.

Since farked, ABC article (new window).

uh..yeah...like any of those bids were legit. no one actually interested in wearing those things can afford rent, let alone $70k

Ummm...we broke eBay.

\walks away, whistling.

And here I was scoffing at the idiots camping out in line for a week for the release of them...

btw...those are some ugly shoes. just sayin.

ebay isn't broke...they just got wind of a shiat auction and pulled it...i'd all but guarantee most all of the bids were fake anyway. what's the point.

Congratulations Star Wars nerds, there's people willing to line up and pay exorbitant prices for something much, much worse.

And I'm counting the prequel trilogy in that statement.

My family was really rich when I was growing up, so it wasn't a big deal for me to have Nike Pumps, the newest Jordan's, some imported flashy Converse. It's important that a child wears the most expensive shoes that his family can afford. Like it or not, in middle school and high school, your appearance defines your social acceptance. And your self esteem is tied directly to your social standing. I was the most popular kid all through school, and I think that training has shaped me into the successful salesperson that I am today. I've been to Hawaii more times than I can count. I've been interviewed by some seriously high ranking publications. I sell entire country's GDPs in product, even in down economic times. And if my parents wouldn't have loved me enough to buy me decent shoes, then I may be working as some cubical lackey, living off the bottom scrapings of my trust fund. So, parents, I don't care if you have to take out a home improvement loan - do whatever it takes to make your child successful and they will pay you back in spades.

came here to see a pic of the shows. was disappointed.

GISed for the shoes, and here y'all go:



/ perhaps the ugliest shoes I've ever seen.

Extremely ugly shoes.

They can't afford an Escalade or gold teef, but you don't see that stopping them.

Your posts are starting to get tired. Stop trying so hard.

Oh, is that why there were Successful and Attractive African Americans camped outside the Nike shoe store? Mother farkers, its winter in Chicago, what are you doing.

/I can call them that cause I'm a half darkie.

Lol @black peeps

"Anybody see where I left my shoes?"

Dooshtastic troll!

Wait a minute, black people love tacky shiat?

Is there a line on when the first murder to get a pair of these, er, shoes is going to happen?

Now for the troll:

Too bad they didn't start selling them on election day. It'd keep the Obama voters too busy to go to the polls.

acronym: think they'll let a brother lease a pair?


How much fo' jus' ONE shoe?

when i eat pop-rocks, sometimes my bowel movements have "a purple and pink galactic swirl pattern."

So a few bucks of cheap sweatshop labor churns out this astronomically expensive crap? I admit they aren't as ugly as some of the newer shoes out there, but holy chit is the ugliness intentional? I've pondered similar things about the Auto industry designs as well.

black people problems

yeah, you've got to wonder what the Chinese slave labor is thinking while they're stitching those together for 22 hours a day...they must think Americans have awful taste.

not only are they ugly..but they don't look very well built. my guess is they'd fall apart with actual wear in under a year.

Damn, that new listing on eBay says that guy has sold some already?

one born every minute...

I watched some documentary once about Chinese people who made those beads from mardi gras, they thought Americans cherished the beads they made.
