Darth Avlectus Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 Aww WHAT?! Dude, that's...just... frivolous. ANYONE who buys a pair of these is a stupid-@$$-dumb-****ing idiot. Go and spend 2.5 grand for SHOES? Damn. This just gets better and better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alkonium Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 I'd buy them if they were had an Xbox 360 Elite them, instead of an original Xbox theme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rtas Vadum Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 Most I've ever paid for any kind of footwear would be around 75$. And that was for my boots. Least he could have done was themed a better style of footwear like those. Not to mention it would be worse then those old "light-up" shoes in some places.

narfblat Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 ...aren't endorsed by Microsoft or Nike. Lawsuit, anyone? Seems like he randomly threw some ideas together. Thought process: Hmm, people like ganes, I'll use a game system logo. Since they're shoes, I'll ripoff some popular shoe logo too. Let's throw in lighing on the game system logo. Hey, I'll do that with fiber optics, it sounds cool. Hmm, needs something else. Throw some ...um... camouflage on somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trench Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 I hesitate to pay 50 bucks for shoes! 2500$? Yeah right! This guys out of his mind! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamqd Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 Nike Dunk are the most ill fitting shoe I've ever owed (Ill= Bad, not the hip hop word for good lol) so they'd have to be a 2.5 k version of a good shoe for starters... but no, what a waste of cash.

Qui-Gon Glenn Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 He has no worries about legal action from Nike - it is perfectly legal to sell the shoes, if they were purchased legally and he has a business license. Micro$haft might have something to say, except for the fact that they are getting free advertising from the shoes. Red Ring of Ugly, IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 Nike Dunk are the most ill fitting shoe I've ever owed (Ill= Bad, not the hip hop word for good lol) so they'd have to be a 2.5 k version of a good shoe for starters... but no, what a waste of cash.I love my Nike Dunks, I just wish they had a better selection of colors available. Seems like they bring out a style and it's gone before you ever hear about it. It's hard enough finding shoes that fit. >_> Those are pretty sweet, but I'd rather have me some Monkey Island or Day of the Tentacle all stars.

CommanderQ Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 Now....those shoes are definately for the hard-core Xbox people....and by Hard-Core I mean crazy nuts about Xbox... No wonder we're in economic trouble. Spending too much on having video-game themed clothing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miltiades Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 They're ugly and the price is ridiculously high. X-box fan or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Avlectus Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 Will this shoes go 'Red ring of death' too? No, but I would take bets those computer chip automated shoes which adjust internal comfort would do something similar. No wonder we're in economic trouble. They're ugly and the price is ridiculously high. X-box fan or not. QFT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CommanderQ Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 They're ugly and the price is ridiculously high. X-box fan or not. That is why someone would have to be crazy to buy it....as in mentally-unstable crazy..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
