How come you never hear of anyone rioting over Louboutin or Jimmy Choo? /s;)

I don’t get the “status” certain pairs of (ugly) sneakers bring.

Unless the status sought is “very uneconomical shopper with bad taste”.

I would consider myself stupid if I fell for paying $40 for that mass-produced China junk.

And definitely not worth getting pepper-sprayed for!

And just think, the kid that gets those shoes will probably be mugged and robbed of those shoes on his way home from school and he and his parents will have endured being pepper sprayed for naught.

Cost about $2.00 to make in China. Just guessing but I bet its something close to that figure.

Yeah, what kind of an idiot stands in line to possibly earn the chance to overspend on a pair of athletic shoes?

Most, likely bought with an EBT card. They must be tasty.

No rioting over Red Wing work boots.
