The landscape of signature basketball Shoes Bestickte is well populated, with stars like KD, LeBron, Kobe, Melo, CP3, Rose, Wall, Howard, and Wade making up most of the exclusive club. Throw in the names that aren’t technically signature guys but well-recognized brand ambassadors (Westbrook, Griffin, Curry, Lillard, Parsons, Garnett, Harden), the soon-t0-become signature guys (Kyrie, Paul George), and the mass influx of Retros (Shaq, Kemp, Penny, Barkley, Hill, Ewing), and you might feel its a bit…crowded. What makes it appear even tighter is the fact that brands have spare on the brakes on non-signature models as well.
There’s no denying that star power is a huge influencer in sneaker purchasing. Jordan Brand only exists because of Nike’s vision for Michael Jordan, and the same goes for why a guy like Penny Hardaway is even relevant today. Even the bidding war for KD proves that signature athletes are all the more necessary. For today’s Urlfreeze News Twitter Conversation, we asked our readers if there are just too many signature Shoes Bestickte out there, how it affects their purchasing behavior, and more. Check out some of the key responses that we gathered below, and be sure to participate in our next Twitter Conversation next week.

@SneakerNews i don’t think so, only because they aren’t all coming from one brand. — Josiah Brewster (@JosiahBrewster) iridescent leather eskimo boots Argento

The resounding response to our question was “no”. The athletes listed above is only a small percentage of the NBA, and they happen to represent a wide range of brands. The basketball industry consists of several labels doing what they can to chip away at the market dominated by Nike and Jordan, and that only means a larger selection for the consumer.
@SneakerNews Kobe LBJ & Kd are the only ones that are selling though.. Let’s be real

@SneakerNews: There are quite a bit, but most of those become over shadowed by the predominate trio from Nike.
— Calvin Tucker (@cmt_ii) iridescent leather eskimo boots Argento
No, because despite the wide range, Nike’s big three is by far the most relevant.
Nike, specifically, dominates performance basketball, so while brands like adidas, Under Armour, Li-Ning and 31q4954s come through with their offerings, the Big Three of Kobe, LeBron, and KD will always dominate.

@SneakerNews sometimes the non signatures are just as good. We buy for the name attached. I’m guilty of it, we all are.
— Brandon Nacho Tharp (@Brandon_Tharp) iridescent leather eskimo boots Argento
No, because non-signature performance models still get the attention they deserve.
Even if there are a lot of signature performance shoes, 31q4954 flagship models get plenty of love. The Hyperdunk has always been considered a top performer for true basketball fanatics, as is the Crazy Light series, which just released the Boost version.
@SneakerNews it’s all about the money, the more signature lines they have the more money they’ll make
— Tyler Henderson (@i_Tendy) iridescent leather eskimo boots Argento
@SneakerNews the trend has been add a name add to the price. There will always be a need for Shoes Bestickte for people who can’t afford Js or Kobe’s.
— Wilfred Reyes III (@wereyes3) iridescent leather eskimo boots Argento
Not necessarily a yes or a no, but some believe that the push in sig Shoes Bestickte is an attempt to make a big profit.
Some readers understand why brands are going extra hard with signature athletes, because the added name will mean added value and brand presence. However, there are extra costs in reeling in these superstars – just look at how much Nike had to pony up to KD in their stable.
