Working with Sears and K-Mart, Fat Joe has released a line of affordable sneakers. Adapting to the current economic climate, the Bronx emcee came up with the idea of lower priced footwear with NBA Knicks star, Al Harrington.
The Terror Squad rapper told theshoegame.com, "you know I own thousands of pairs of sneakers and I'm a huge collector but I wanted my sneakers to be something the kids could actually afford. Due to these hard economic times, a lot of kids cannot afford $200 sneakers. So kids can buy them themselves. They don't have to worry about mom or pops buying them for $34.99."
