Yep. The 99% people have it hard. $245 for a pair of stinking shoes? I paid $50 for a good pair of Bostonian regular shoes and they have lasted over 6 years.

Tennis shoes? I had a pair of Hanovers that lasted for over 13 years before I left them at a college reunion meet.

My Spauldings lasted about 15-20 years including one dunking in quicksand.

I guess young blacks have nothing better to buy than an overpriced pair of tennis shoes. How about buying a book or too, assholes? The same for white black wannabees.

How about a trip to a library, a museum, an art gallery? Cheap or free and much more useful in life.

Don’t be a lemming and don’t complain about the white man having everything. A fool and his money are soon parted no matter what color they are. Don’t be a fool just to be cool.

I highly doubt a young black kid paid the 90 grand. It was either Kanye West himself or a rich white guy trying to be cool. Now if Kanye West bought these than he is more a brilliant business man then I even thought. 90 grand is great advertisement as obviously this story is going to give a ton of exposure to the new shoes. Plus what is the difference in buying a pair of sneakers for 240 when you have woman all the time buying purses for 400 dollars all the time. I don't see you bashing those folks.
