Trump rolls out high-top sneaker line after $355M court ruling

The former president launches the sneakers at Sneaker Con in Philadelphia, saying that he ‘wanted to do this for a long time’

U.S. Former President and the leading Republican candidate for the 2024 presidential election, Donald Trump unveiled his top-notch “Trump Sneakers,” after receiving a $355 million fine in a NewYork state court ruling.

The former president made the launch at Sneaker Con in Philadelphia, saying that he “wanted to do this for a long time.”

The $399 sneakers were reported as sold out on the website by Saturday night where it was also mentioned that there had been 1,000 pairs of the sneakers available for purchase, according to a CNN report.

The development came after NewYork state court ruling ordered Trump to pay a $355 million fine for inflating the value of his assets.

The ruling, which also bars Trump and his sons Eric and Donald Jr. from business activities in New York for three years, was met with staunch criticism from Trump.

“We will be appealing,” Trump stated, insisting on his innocence. He described the judge’s decision as a “complete and total sham,” further alleging, “The banks all got their money 100%. They love Trump.”

He likened the ruling to a “witch hunt,” comparing it to the political climates in Russia and China. He also accused the Department of Justice and President Biden of targeting him as a political opponent.
