If I ever spent $223 for a pair of SNEAKERS - I had better be able to slam dunk a basketball, too. I am only 5'6" and a 58 year old female. Guess I would have to be able to run a little bit, too. LOL

All kidding aside, many kids/young people have been robbed for previous versions of Airs. Since this is a limited release in just a few cities, if I were stupid enough to buy them, I would be afaid to wear them outside the house.

Over two hundred dollars for a pair of tennis shoes, over six hundred dollars for a cell phone, over a thousand dollars for a lap top computer, and we wonder why our economy has gone down the drain, and why kid's have no morals or judgement !

The sad thing is, more and more stuff is being made overseas. We have to have clothes and shoes so we can't refuse to buy stuff and stop it. Some companies have figured out what is going on and say they have moved their manufacturing, but how do we know.

Marks, for US companies to stop paying their CEOs huge salaries so the American laborer could be paid a living wage.

BTW, I buy New Balance shoes because they are made in the US.
