Scripps News takes a closer look at a new Trump-branded sneaker drop, which has left shoe fanatics and voters with some questions. The 'Never Surrender High-Tops' cost $399 and arrive on the market just after a judge hands former US president a huge penalty. After his bombshell combined $450 million lawsuit costs, Donald Trump needs all income streams available to pay. It seems he has found one, in the form of luxury sneakers.
Donald Trump is facing criticism after he promoted $399 sneakers while attending Sneaker Con at the Philadelphia Convention Center. The former president unveiled a gaudy new sneaker line, including a $399 pair of limited edition gold high tops. With legal fees mounting, Trump seems to be turning to unconventional methods to generate income.
At an event in Philadelphia, the Republican nominee introduces shiny gold high shoes with an American flag and a 'T' badge. CNN host Jake Tapper on Sunday suggested former President Trump could pay for his mounting legal fees with sales from his newly unveiled sneakers. Donald Trump stopped by “Sneaker Con” to launch new golden Trump-branded high-tops as he closes in on the Republican nomination.
