Much has been made of Stephon Marbury’s inexpensive shoes. From the time the price was first revealed to their familiar design; the brand’s struggles and his deal with Amazon, the Starbury brand is pretty infamous around the blogosphere.
However, no one has ever been captured or photographed in the wild with a pair on their feet. Until now. In the image leading this post, we have an daring individual from Kansas City sporting Stephon’s hot fashion. Because the above image is kind of blurry, here’s a screenshot of the Starbury model our young Kansas City-ite is rocking:
Personally, I think the brave soul should be commended. You never know when you’ll be out amongst your crew — a group that’s probably unaware of the Starbury brand so you can inflate the value and be even cooler — rocking your Patrick Ewing adidas lookalike Starburys and an enterprising blogger with a camera phone and good timing crosses your path.
The next thing you know, you’re feet* are on the Internet.

Marbury is too busy with his leadership seminars, motivational speaking career and charitable work in the community to promote his brand. Show a playa some love!

What about the tattoo? He wasn’t too busy for that.

I hate Starubury’s game but you have to give the guy credit for trying to help out society with cheap shoes.

I rock the Starburys. I think they’re hilarious. I have 4 pairs.

Apparently, KC is the Starbury capital. I saw another pair last night at the store…
