"Kids shouldn't have to feel the pressure to spend so much to feel good about the way they look." --Stephon Marbury

Basketball Star Sports Fifteen Dollar Shoes

In shopping malls across the United States a revolution is brewing --inspired by a celebrity basketball player who is taking on the global might of companies such as Nike and Reebok. Star NBA player Stephon Marbury has embarked on a "change-the-world" mission that could transform the economics of the sportswear and sponsorship market. Teaming up with a leading US retailer Marbury is endorsing an NBA-quality basketball training shoe available at the giveaway price of just $14.98! Not only will the fifth-highest salaried player in the league wear these same sneakers during the next season, but he won't take any money for endorsing them!
