As he closes in on the Republican presidential nomination, former President Donald Trump made a highly unusual stop Saturday, hawking new Trump-branded sneakers at “Sneaker Con,” a gathering that bills itself as the “The Greatest Sneaker Show on Earth.”
Trump was met with loud boos as well as cheers at the Philadelphia Convention Center as he introduced what he called the first official Trump footwear.
The shoes, gold lame high tops with an American flag detail on the back, are being sold as “Never Surrender High-Tops” for $399 on a new website that also sells Trump-branded “Victory47” cologne and perfume for $99 a bottle. He’d be the 47th president if elected again.

Biden-Harris 2024 Communications Director Michael Tyler slammed the appearance, saying: “Donald Trump showing up to hawk bootleg Off-Whites is the closest he’ll get to any Air Force Ones ever again for the rest of his life.”
Yes, I do judge people when they waste their money on ugly, expensive sneakers.
Especially when I can think of many, many things that a $400 investment would be better spent on.
I know, I’m the worst.
You don’t own other people or their money. You cannot say whether there is another 400 dollar “investment” that’s better for then. Why do you have the need to dictate other people’s lives? Super weird, tbh. Also, maybe other people just have more money than you and can afford it?
Also, you are not the arbiter of “beauty”
So you’re claiming that I’m not allowed to judge people based on my standards?
Because that seems like what you’re doing to me right now.
No, they’re judging your preferences by their own preferences for not judging people for wearing ugly shoes.
And they’re welcome to not judge people who do that. I do. I can also say that $400 would be better spent on all kinds of things other than a gold shoe. They are welcome to disagree with me on that, but I won’t judge them for it.
