Get in line: LeBron's shoes in stores Saturday
Quote:The hype has spilled from TV talk shows into Web sites, including e-Bay, where 54 of the embargoed $110 pairs are selling and bids approachd $200. In November, when Portland's Niketown offered a limited edition of the shoe, the sneaker sold in 18 minutes, leaving a line of teens still waiting outside.
What's the appeal? \"Obviously, it's LeBron,\" 15-year-old Peter Koehler explained. \"People will buy Jordan even if they don't like the way it looks -- because it's Jordan.\"
Why pay hundreds of dollars for sneakers when you can kill someone and take theirs?

I actually thought this was one of the better looking pair of expensive sneakers I've seen in a while. I always thought Jordans were ugly but hey it was the 80s.

The original Jordans, on up to about 93-93 were all ok, WAY too expensive, but not bad looking. After that, they got fugly.

I never pay more than 50 bucks for sneakers. Now I usually get away with $20 shoes whenever i need to buy them.
