Agreed. I actually like this better than the Kyrie 1 but the orange color is not doing it any favors.

I prefer cooler colors. Always hated Luka's red shoes that clash with the Mavs' colors.

LaMelo has made a wise business decision. I wish the same could be said about his father's brand but that's not the case. LaMelo's are affordable and he will have success selling them.

His dad tried....I just wonder if his dad could have kept the quality high and the distribution limited if BBB could make it. Someone else needs to try a start up brand again

need to see in person but not a huge fan of them. They look like budget $100 sneakers.

Creative Design Meeting regarding this sneaker.

Boss: We got an endorsement deal with LaMello Ball. I need a creative design for LaMello"s brand of sneakers?

Executive Design: His last name is Ball. What about making a sneaker the same color as the basketball Ball? Do you get it? The ball is entirely orange. Ball's brand will be entirely orange as well.

Boss: Awesome idea. That's the reason I pay you millions of bucks...

They kinda remind me of Owlette from the PJ Masks. Might have to snag matching pairs for me and my kid even though she makes me be Catboy every time we play.
