Starbury is Stephon Marbury and His New Basketball Sneakers
Starbury, Stephon Marbury’s line of show, will go at a “premium” of $10-$15. Steve and Barry’s is known for having a store full of products that go for under $10. Now, here’s what is neat about this story: not only is he promoting this line, he’s actually going to wear this brand of shoes in the games. In fact, the president of the company said he’s just going to pull a pair from a Steve and Barry’s on gameday.
So, when he hits the courts and is performing as well as anyone with $15 shoes, it seems like it’s bound to make a real statement. Will it really hurt Nike and the like? I doubt it, as kids will still crave products that are difficult to get. But, it’ll make it easier for parents to show their kids that expensive shoes don’t make the difference. And, from checking out some blogs online, people seem to be happy with how these shoes perform. Kudos to Marbury for backing up his endorsement by agreeing to wear these shoes in games.
I’ve always been impressed with Steve and Barry’s. Considering the volume, stores seem to be maintained fairly well and the employees appear relatively happy. And, they’ve managed to undercut the big boys while providing quality that is certainly no worse than the discount stores provide. Given that everything is offshored anyways, I’ll be happy if they succeed and get people to shift their other disposable dollars elsewhere. I just wonder if the big discounters feel threatened yet.

Thanks for visiting my site and posting my comments on your blog–it is an interesting story.
Your trackback isn’t working or else there would have been a link back to your site.
sorry man
mmm…nice and all and I like the concept, but if Nike is running sweatshops what kind of manufacturing is happening to make these?
Ken–no problem. As far as manufacturing, virtually all shoes are made in China at this juncture. New Balance is pretty much the exception, as some of their shoes are manufactured in the U.S., and they deserve support for that. Ultimately, virtually all shoes are manufactured for a couple bucks in China and then marked up. Steve and Barry’s has very slim margins–some think they’re too slim–while Nike has nice fat margins that go into marketing and/or back to their shareholders.
where can these shoes be purchased
where can we purchase Starbury (bball shoes?)
where can i find these marbury shoes?
where can i purchase the 14.95 sneaker from marbury
Where can I see and/or buy these Starbury Shoes? I’ve heard people on TV talkig about them, but nobody said where they can be bought.
At Steve and Berry’s Stupid!!
where can we buy these shoes and what they look like
I’m impressed a pro is going to wear $10 shoes. Now if only they made quality soccer balls for that price.
Incidentally, I noticed you run a popular business/tech blog. Care for an SEO review to see how your internet marketing measures up? My email’s on my blog if you do.
I’m having an alarm clock catastrophe this morning for sure. OK so I woke this morning too late to go to the gym but early enough so I could do my errands this morning and get to work on time. So I slept in a bit after hitting snooze on my alarm. Which I never do. After all I have it’s so serene to lay in bed after you pimp my bedroom.
When I realized that I slept through the alarm and propped my head out from under the covers and tried to clear my eyes to look at the alarm clock.
8:33am!!
I’m late for work.
When I launched my ass out of bed and practically jumped into the shower with my clothes still on I could hear the Dunkin Donuts commercial playing on the TV, Alarm Clock Catastrophe. It made me laugh and I thought I’m not the only one going through this today so relax. hahaha
I whole-heartedly appreciate what Marbury has done as far as providing affordable shoes for our kids. This Christmas – we were able to get 8 pairs of shoes for every kid in our family for under $150.00 dollars. That is pretty awesome and the shoes look great. I am proud to be a supporter and I thanks again.
I am so thankful that you took in consideration the less fortunate families who would love to wear the sneakers of some one they up to as a role model. Mr Maubury will be blessed for his gesture to the less fortunate. GOD bless you.
Where can my wife and I purchase some of these new tennis. I aplaud that young man for taking a stand!
These shoes will be great Christmas presents and I want to make my purchases NOW! I am in Los Angeles. Thanks again…
I saw 20/20 last night and am interested in the line of Starbury Sneakers. I’m 84 and my doctor suggests I wear sneakers, which I have never done. I don’t want the high-priced ones because your Starbury Sneakers seem fine to me. Where can I buy them. I live in Vineland, N.J. which is South Jersey 08361. Thanks Marie
I saw your program on 20/20 last nite. I would like to know where I can buy these shoes. I have 3 grandsons who play basketball. Thanks Debbie
I just saw the 20/20 episode about Stephon’s shoes. I am so happy to see someone trying to make a difference and make people realize it’s not about the $$$. I remember being raised by a single mother who had little money to spend on nice shoes or really anything and the embarrassment a child can feel when they pointed out to their peers for having *cheap shoes*. I give major props to Stephon Marbury for taking the steps he has. I am also very interested in getting these shoes for my nephews, but I lived overseas. Will they be available online?
*Keeping my fingers crossed*
Michelle
I saw the 20/20 report and facinated that you had the foresight and consideration of what this means in wholistic terms for our youth. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you. It means so much more than you will ever know. I am a special education teacher and affect other children lives in career interest ways, I would love to have you speak with kids in the south. Please contact me about this and other possible business ventures 864-234-8086. Thank you.
What a fantastic idea to create sneakers that all children can access and enjoy, a fabulous self-esteem builder. My hats off to Stephon Marbury.
i’d like to thank stephon marbury for an affordable line of shoes. where were you when i was raising my child? at least i was smart. i would only pay $30. towards a pair of shoes for my daughter. if she wanted the nikes or air jordans she had to find a way to pay for them herself. she is now 25 yrs. and has a child of her own. this weekend she went over to detroit to shop. she bought a pair of starburys for herself and my nephew stephen. they both love the shoes. is there any chain over here in canada that these shoes can be sold through? i sincerely hope that other clothing and shoe lines will follow your lead. thanks again.
When will the Stephon Sneakers make it to stores in Mississippi?

Thank you so much for designing the new awesome basketball shoes! Our three teenagers really like them. I was able to buy all three of them a pair, and they are very excited! I couldn’t afford to pay 70-100/pair, and (before)they had to wait three months to have new basketball shoes!
I did not know who Stepen Marbury was before today but I think he is a waonderful role model!
Fantastic idea!
Do you have something against UNC. I keep looking for a UNC tshirt at your store and you never have any.
I KNOW WHO STARBURY IS…THANKS FOR THIS NEW REVOLUTION…I WANT EVERY PAIR!!
these are the worst sneakers in the world i got so many blisters.
Thanks to Mr. Marbury for caring, and making a difference for the future.
My name is savell Watson I am/was a small buisness owner in pensacola,florida and I watched the show dateline last night I had developed like a passion for selling shoes if somebody walks up I could basically tell what size shoe there wearing. I’m a person that came from nothing and really still don’t but one thing I can say is I try and right now I have a barbershop that I was selling knockoff jordans and af1′s out of . I even paid taxes on them till I found out the hard way that it was illegal.I also e-mailed Nike and they didnt respond.So as I was watching the show last night I realized that here’s a man trying to do something positive for the community and me I feel I was doin a good deed by bringing that look for half the price.I seen some of your some of your sneakers and you say that kids aren’t gona wear them because there cheap I think I have a way to get kids to like wearin them here in pensacola I also have a son 14 years of age I’m also a 31 year old goin on 18 so I really feel I can make a difference and also save my buisneses I had no othr way of lookin you guys up so I hope this work but if you go to the big company’s in Florida my plan might not work but if your intrested in hearing more about my plain my address is 8860 airway dr. pensacola fla,32514.Im not sure about this e-mail address so thats why I gave my home address my phone# is 850-433-2218 leave a message please also my cell phone# is 850-607-0567 I think me and you can make a difference so please contact me.
Where can we buy them? Please let me know at takn_care_of_daddy@yahoo.com We don’t have any Steve and Barry’s around me.
My admiration to Stephon Marbury for his leadership and drive to be a positive role model for the youth of America. His enthusiasm is refreshing as are his strengths and social manners. My compliments to his mother as she is a very special woman to have instilled such virtues in her son and to successfully raise such a conscientious and gentle man.
Since Steve and Berry is not close to those that would really benefit from the cost of Starbury shoes (atleast in my city) I want to know why and will the shoes be distributed by any other store except Steve and Berry? Kudos to Stephon for the shoes but for those of us who live in an area where there isn’t a Steve and Berry store this isn’t beneficial.
THANKS STEVE YOUR A GOOD MAN AND WATCH YOU GOING TO GET SOMTHING BETTER IN LIFE
THANK YOU
