I didn't know there was such a shoe. I'm not seeing the correlation between Betsy Ross and running or playing basketball or any sort of sport. She's not around any longer to stitch the flag on each shoe, either. What is the point of the whole shoe? I'm so confused. Anyway, to answer your question, if they were a good shoe and I was in need of whatever type of shoe it is, I would pay $17.76.
If you have a SHOE and you put something ON the shoe? You can charge 200 bucks. That is all you need to understand.
Why ANYONE needs a shoe with anything besides shoe stuff on it, is beyond me. If I were younger and still out and partying, I would buy these and wear them as a JOKE.
Taa-Daa!! That's more like what I was picturing and I would never buy these either! I thought the flag would have been below the swish on the side but good enough. How tacky is this? In a weird sort of way, I feel disrespectful, too.
I have not been following this issue, but from the little I've overheard on the news, the offense is that the Betsy Ross flag was created and accepted as out national standard at a time when slavery was still in vogue.
We cannot even AGREE on how to treat the subject of slavery so we do this to prove we are against SLAVERY? WHAT THE %&*$ DOES BETSY ROSS HAVE TO DO WITH THIS IDEA? She made the American Flag. She was not even remotely lauding slavery. FOR GOD SAAKES.
Instead of treating people of color with the respect they deserve, we simply will treat them like crap and prove how sanctimonious we are by banning a shoe that has a slave message that is NOT even there.
