When asked about the $30 difference between both the shoes, LeBron James had a very arrogant answer. James answered, “Because it’s LeBron’s shoe. It’s got my name on it. I take pride in my shoes every year and I’ve always taken pride in having the best shoe. So they’re going to cost a little more if you decide to wear them.”
