Ben Wallace to Endorse Starburys

Okay we know that the new Starbury II shoes are coming out this April 1st (not too far away!).
But did we know that Ben Wallace is now endorsing Starburys, is wearing them this season on the court and will have his own Ben Wallace Starbury next season? Nice!

press release
"
Four-time NBA All-Star Ben Wallace is best known for a strong work ethic that has resulted in four Defensive Player of the Year awards, multiple NBA rebounding titles, and an NBA blocked shots title. With today's announcement that the Chicago Bulls center is the first athlete endorser of Starbury, he will put that legendary work ethic to use on and off the court by helping get kids and parents to join the Starbury Movement. Wallace - aka Big Ben - will wear Starbury basketball shoes on-court this season. Wallace's Big Ben signature Starbury sneaker is currently being designed and will debut next season during Wallace's games. "

And thanks to my girlfriend Robin, I've learned that Steve and Barry's are going to do a line similar to Starbury for Sarah Jessica Parker, a low-cost fashion line for the ladies. Good for Sarah. Respect!

I love it when Americans do good things for Americans. I know that some hippie will bring up sweat shops and try to bring all this positive energy down, but I believe in what Steve and Barry's are doing and I don't give a rat's ass what hippies think beyond that.
