Why do you care how much they cost if you are not the one that's buying them. Whoever buys them obviously has the money to spend and its going to a good cost.

its sad that people dont realize this already though. nike manufactures all its shit overseas for less than 5$ in materials for a pair of shoes then resells for 100-150 in the states. same situation just less product to sell, meaning stupid amounts for a pair of fucking legit shoes.

i think the "less than" sign was fuckin shit up

If anyone is actually trying to get a pair, remember that they're in the Ebay Fashion Vault in 1 minute.

haha it was nice to have high bid for a second!


This is awesome though. With each pair going for upwards for 4000 dollars, and 1500 pairs being sold, they're going to make a killing for the Michael J Fox foundation.

Not to mention each pair sold is being doubled!

whoever was the guy to think of this as a fundraiser is a genius. if every pair sells for 5 grand, they are gonna make 15 million dollars for the foundation.

Theres some that are even higher than that right now. This is all a great thing and seeing how much people want these sneakers and to help his foundation out is astonishing.

so sick, my dad was diagnosed with this disease last month. idk how much this sale will affect him but its still cool to see.

plus the shoes themselves are fucking amazing. do you know if they tighten themselves or anything? not expecting them to lace themselves like in the movie...

This huge donation should really set them ahead in the research of the disease. Hopefully they can find a way to cure it and "erase parkinson's from the space-time continuum"

But also take notice of all the pairs going for 2-5 thousand.

The people bidding on that pair are donating with the addition of getting a pair of shoes. The cheaper ones are people that really want the shoes haha
