Basketball Shoes?

I need a pair of solid basketball shoes that aren%26#039;t ridisculously priced.





I mean really, $200 dollars for a pair of shoes? Damn, those better make me Jordan.





But honestly, I just can%26#039;t afford that.





So does anybody know any cheap, but good pair of shoes?

Basketball Shoes?
The really expensive shoes are almost always the ones endorsed by athletes, eg. Jordan, T-Mac, Kobe, Arenas, etc. My experience is you don%26#039;t have to spend $200 for a good pair of b-ball shoes, unless you%26#039;re into showing off that you can afford them (or a shoe collector aka %26quot;shoeheads%26quot;). If you%26#039;re not into impressing people, get a pair of New Balance. New Balance does not spend money on athlete endorsers, instead putting that money back into research %26amp; development. The result are some of the best shoes on the planet. If you still need to impress people with a brand name, you could get some of the non-endorsed Nike or Adidas shoes that cost considerably less. Check the Nike or Adidas outlets as well, if you live near one. AND1 makes good shoes at a good price, quite a number of NBA players now endorse AND1 shoes. The same goes with RBK (Reebok), very good quality at a good price, and the styling is right up there with Nike. Converse makes some good and durable basketball shoes as well. If you are just looking for a pair of cheap shoes you don%26#039;t mind getting destroyed playing in the park, Stephon Marbury has his Starbury line for only $15 and it is the same shoe Steph wears in NBA games. Some say the shoes feel a bit cheap, but at least you won%26#039;t feel guilty trashing or scuffing them like you would with a $200 pair of Jordans.
Reply:Go to mall. Look off the shoes that are on sale.
Reply:but i think and1 is pretty cheap isnt it??
Reply:The freak known as Stephon Marbury has shoes named Starbury that sell for $15. He markets them through Steve %26amp; Barry%26#039;s Store.
Reply:You%26#039;ll find some good quality basketball shoes. Go to your local mall, Nike Outlet, or sporting good store. Just be the smart shopper and look for bargains..it%26#039;s there, it might take some time.
