Former Mayor and native of New Orleans Marc Morial now the President of The National Urban League has requested Nike to not to release or charge the asking price of the new Nike LeBron X..the shoe is retailing for $180 with a more expensive version that is going for $300, Marc had this to say:

“It’s the consumer’s choice after all, but it’s insensitive to market a $300 shoe to kids and teenagers as people are going back to school and struggling to buy school supplies. This is not food, this is not rent, it’s a single pair of sneakers.”
