Trump Launches Sneaker Line Day After Court Setback. Check Out The Price
Former US President Donald Trump on Saturday launched his sneaker brand called ‘Trump Sneakers’ at the ‘Sneaker Con’ event in Philadelphia.
The launch came just a day after a judge ordered Trump and his company to pay nearly $355 million in a New York civil fraud case.
Mr Trump, who is marching closer to his 2024 Republican nomination, introduced what he called the “first official Trump footwear” at the event. The newly launched shiny golden high-top shoes have an American flag detail on them.
The announcement was met with loud boos as well as cheers at the Philadelphia Convention Center.
The shoes, currently sold out on the GetTrumpSneakers.com website, are named the “Never Surrender High-Top Sneaker” and are priced at $399. There had been 1,000 pairs of those on sale, including 10 randomly autographed by Trump.
Two other versions of the sneakers, priced at $199, have “T” and “45” on both sides. A text just above the heels read, “POTUS 45”. Trump was the 45th President of the United States.
