Stephon Marbury has release a line of shoes that you can pick up for $14.98, which makes it easier for kids to have a good shoe.

But is it really good? They are saying its made the same way that the others sell for $75 to $100. And it could sell for them prices if they wished. Saying it cost far less for the companies to make the shoes, then $14.98.

Do you think this is a good thing or will these shoes prove to live up to the price of them? Cheap?

definately $100-200 shoes are full of avdersting $$$$$, I am sure the same quality can be done for $15-$35

Here is a little article on the shoes.

The Price is Right
New York Knicks guard Stephon Marbury collaborated with the discount store Steve & Barry's University Sportswear to release a signature line of sneakers, as well as apparel, appropriately named Starbury. The "Starbury One" is selling for just $14.98, a price that is shockingly low compared to other player-endorsed sneakers and he will wear the shoe for the 2006-2007 NBA season, citing that they are every bit as durable as the typical basketball shoe. Having grown up in a disadvantaged neighborhood, Marbury is not just endorsing the shoe, buy says he is lending his name to social consciousness, wanting underprivileged kids to be able to purchase affordable shoes that are fit for the pros.

Im just wondering if he will annouce what games he will be wearing them, so everyone can see them perform in a game.

Yep, and you can get an unknown backup point guard that's just as good as an overhyped, overpaid, elite guard in the NBA. Starbury knows all about that.
