Stephon Marbury’s sneakers are back, and so is his relentless Michael Jordan

Marbury took to Twitter to not only announce the rebooting of his budget Starbury shoe and apparel line but also took shots at Michael Jordan in the process.

Many people were amazed on how a sneaker that was well crafted for basketball cost only $15, Marbury was in the center of the limelight and spoke about why he made a decision to put the $15 price tag on the sneakers. Marbury promoted the sneaker but was not paid for his endorsements.

After leaving the National Basketball Association on bad terms, Marbury found success again with the Beijing Ducks in China, having brought the team three titles in four years.

While it is nice to see someone trying to make an affordable basketball shoe, does Marbury realize that the core audience he will be selling his shoe to probably doesn’t know who he is?

‘Jordan has been robbing the hood since, ‘ Marbury tweeted on Sunday (tweet shown above).

Ohio police were forced to subdue a crowds, waiting in line for Jordan Retros, with pepper spray last December, and a Houston man was robbed and murdered after purchasing a new pair back in 2012. “I hate that this dude won’t change that”. Nike and the Jordan Brand account for more than 90 percent of basketball shoe sales in the US, according to the report. But that doesn’t make the price of the former All-Star’s new sneaker any less admirable, or the root of his incendiary sentiments any less accurate. Jordan himself has stayed mum on the violence related to his shoes, while the brand has only tried to stem matters by initiating a raffle system for select releases. I’m off the kids getting killed for Jordan’s. The shoes are made in China in the same places.

In 2006, he launched his “Starbury” line but it was not successful and ended in 2009.

“Everyone likes to be admired”, he told SI’s Roy S. Johnson back in the ’90s, “but when it comes to kids actually killing each other, then you have to reevaluate things”.
