Trump Unveils $400 Trump Shoes At Sneaker Con - Conservative Angle
Donald Trump reveals $400 limited edition sneakers at Sneaker Con as he faces enormous legal judgments, selling out for $9,000.
Former President Donald Trump made a splash over the weekend by unveiling a new limited edition line of Trump branded sneakers, priced at a hefty $400. The big reveal took place at Sneaker Con, an event dubbed "The Greatest Sneaker Show on Earth," held at the Philadelphia Convention Center.
In his announcement, Trump expressed his excitement about the new venture, stating that it had been a long-time dream of his and that he had an incredible team working on the project. The new line, called "The Never Surrender High-Tops," is available for pre-order on a website that also offers a $99 cologne, a $99 perfume, and a different type of sneaker in two colors for $199.
The description of the $400 shoes touts them as "bold, gold, and tough, just like President Trump," and they are marketed as being for "go-getters who don't know the word quit." The sneakers feature a standout gold finish with a 'T' badge, as well as an American flag on the collar, symbolizing bravery and freedom. The website further emphasizes that the sneakers are not political and are not affiliated with any political campaign.
Notably, one individual reportedly purchased a pair of Trump signed sneakers for a staggering $9,000 at the event. The website selling the sneakers is run by CIC Ventures LLC, a company that Trump reported owning in his 2023 financial disclosure. The fine print on the website clarifies that the sneakers are not designed, manufactured, distributed, or sold by Donald J. Trump, The Trump Organization, or any of their respective affiliates or principals. Additionally, a similarly named company, CIC Digital LLC, owns Trump's digital trading card NFTs, or non-fungible tokens.
The release of the sneakers comes at a time when Trump is facing significant legal challenges, including a New York judge's ruling requiring him to pay over $350 million in a civil business fraud case. He was also recently ordered to pay approximately $83 million to a woman after a New York jury ruled that Trump defamed her.
Despite these legal setbacks, Trump appears to be forging ahead with his business ventures, including the launch of his new sneaker line. The unveiling of the Trump branded sneakers has sparked significant attention and debate, with many eagerly awaiting the success and impact of this latest addition to the Trump brand.
