I thought by getting them for $500 it's because the store is trying to bank for themselves and who knows who else.... The most expensive footwear I own are the red and white 720 uptempos, cost me about $250 tax included. I wanted those for awhile. Wore them a total of 3 times last year and this year 0.

Louis Vuitton for example. Most of their material on their items is canvas. Not even leather. The bag should cost, at most, $25-50 with material and labor. Yet sell for the thousands.

They are rubber on the bottom , so when you walk you didn't make a noise like you would with hard bottom shoes. Thus the name sneaker came into the play.
