Big Baller Brand Launch ‘Luxury’ Sneakers for $695-$895
(BBB) are certainly no strangers to the headlines. Led by their freewheeling frontman , the brand has been since its inception. Once referred to as ‘the Kardashians of the NBA’, the Ball family and their BBB imprint have been hamstrung by FBI investigations, $3 million dollar lawsuits, and even an F rating from the Better Business Bureau.
Still, LaVar Ball and the BBB refuse to yield, a fact reinforced by their latest madcap ‘luxury’ sneaker offering.
No longer legally able to produce signature shoes for sons Lonzo or LaMelo (both sons are now signed with and respectively), Lavar has now turned his attention to luxury lifestyle sneakers.
‘Designed and inspired by LiAngelo Ball’, the four renditions are priced between $695 and $895, an outrageous price tag reflective of BBB’s initial foray into the market with the ZO2s (the ZO2s hit the market in 2017 for $495. Of course when asked about the price point, LaVar quipped, ‘I like the way it sounds’).
Reportedly manufactured in Italian leather and featuring a classic tennis shoe silhouette, the highest priced sneaker features the words ‘I told you so’ emblazoned on the lateral sides.
