Adidas did the same thing with the Rose 3 - 100 for the 1, 110 for the 2, and 160 for the 3, and it bombed. Of course, he got injured and didn't wear them much, but the non-existent tech plus the fact adidas wasn't hot at the time killed the line. It is barely recovered and only because of three stripe worship this year.
Curry will have to be on MVP level again and stay on court to justify the $150. The big draw was parents could buy at $120 and have their kids hero shoe. At $150, only 30 more, but to mom making ends meet that's groceries.
Preach man! Honestly, that was one of my draws too. I don't like spending my hard earned dollars on extremely overpriced shoes of questionable quality. For me the look-the price-the comfort all aligned, but for some people it won't.
