would have been cool if they sold some chains for your wrists as well and maybe a necklace.........damn shame they wont be releasing them i really wanted to see if they would blow up. and considering the color maybe the phoenix suns could have worn them.

Even without the chain, those sneakers are still ugly as sin.

LOL at people saying that is a racist shoe. A. RACIST. SHOE. Seriously.

White people buy sneakers too.

But it is still very racist because the ridiculous chains could only mean slavery against black people.

Pbhhbhbt, I pick Racist Shoe every time I play Monopoly. It's way better than Misogynistic Battleship or Sexist Wheelbarrow.

I thought the car was sexist because only men ever pick the car. I usually have the women use the thimble.

Next these black people will complain and get Velcro shoes recalled for being racist and making fun of their bad hair :(

^^^ WTH, easy bro.

At first glance, i thought they had to be a movie / franchise cross promotion. But i can also see why some people would see it as "Racist"

They look more like Prison inmate shoes to me. Its not like Slaves were the only ones forced to wear chains.

Put another color scheme on it, and there not that bad. Id rock the chain as a hand bracelet.

Man, make them use the iron since there isn't a sandwich maker piece. That's right, we're playing Manopoly now.

I was thinking of the Iron after I made the post.

The real crime was these shoes were going to MSRP for $300+

Maybe these shoes were really a message to stop crime. Since people have fought and killed over shoe releases in the past, maybe they figured that nobody would be killing each other for the "slave" shoes, thus promoting peace.
