LOOK: LaVar, Lonzo Ball release first Big Baller Brand sneaker ... and it's only $495

Ball's sneaker is called the zo2, and is a big baller brand exclusive.

The day everyone has been waiting for has finally arrived. Thursday, Lonzo Ball and Big Baller Brand released Ball's first signature sneaker, the ZO2.

While a lot of people were probably preparing for another Twitter dot com roast session reminiscent of the Steph Curry shoe release, it turns out at the shoes themselves are actually pretty solid. 

The Sports World is Forever Changed. Introducing Lonzo's 1st Signature Shoe: The ZO2 Prime. pic.twitter.com/5JN1OLxlZS — Big Baller Brand (@bigballerbrand) May 4, 2017

The thing is...

They cost $495. No, seriously. And that's if you're not a size 14 or 15. If that's the case, it'll run you $695.

Oh, and that's only for the cheap version. There's also a $995 (!!!) version that comes autographed by Ball and with LED lights. Via SLAM:

BBB is aiming for Lonzo's signature sneaker to tap into a new market—above the athletic performance kicks from the likes of Nike, Jordan, adidas and Under Armour, but below the high-end designer shoes of Gucci, Prada or Louis Vuitton. The ZO2 Prime comes with a $495 price tag. There is also a limited ZO2 WET Autographs edition, which will come in a key-locked glass box with a floor mirror, LED lights and an autograph from the Chino Hills prodigy himself. It will cost $995.

But wait, there's more. If you're interested in BBB-themed sandals, it'll cost you a pretty penny. The ZO2 signature slides by Lonzo Ball is on sale for $220.

And if you read the fine letter on the BBB website, you'll notice the following:

Pre-Order available only for a limited time. No refunds or exchanges. Shipping by November 24, 2017.

God bless anyone with the money to drop five bills on a pair of shoes. It's going to be extremely interesting to see how many of these they sell.

Ownership Is The Name Of The Game For Big Baller Brand Creator LaVar Ball "A brand is one of the biggest things you can have in the world, because everything is branded."

By Tamara Clarke • Dec 4, 2023

Opinions expressed by Entrepreneur contributors are their own.

You're reading Entrepreneur Middle East, an international franchise of Entrepreneur Media.

LaVar Ball, acclaimed basketball personality and founder of Big Baller Brand , a shoe and apparel company based in the United States, rocked the industry with his booming voice, big persona, and an even bigger sticker price on his first signature shoe, the ZO2.

Indeed, the US$495 base price garnered significant media attention then, with Ball responding to critics on X (the app formerly known as Twitter), saying, "If you can't afford the ZO2'S, you're NOT a BIG BALLER!" He received further criticism for this, but he remained unfazed- and that attitude continues to today, with Ball continuing to believe in himself, with his unwavering confidence rooted in ownership.

"The inspiration behind Big Baller Brand is this," Ball explained. "90% of NBA players are Black, but we don't own anything. I was the first one to come into the league with my own brand. That's why I preach that ownership is everything. A brand is one of the biggest things you can have in the world , because everything is branded."

While the Big Baller Brand is synonymous with Ball, it also has strong family ties. In 2017, the company announced the release of a signature shoe for Ball's son, LaMelo Ball, called the Melo Ball 1 (MB1). It went on to later partner with athletic brand Puma, and and that resulted in PUMA x LaMelo, its first collaboration in correlation with the 2020 NBA Draft.

As a dad, Ball is able celebrate his son's success, but the businessman maintains that ownership should be the priority when striking a deal. "I let Melo go to Puma to show him what they're not going to do for him," he said. "If you don't have any ownership, you're just wearing a Puma shoe for a stipend. Melo made their stock go up… and they're only giving him a measly hundred million or so. That's not a lot if you look at it like that!"

"I explained to Melo: you, and LeBron, and all these guys get a fee," he continued. "That means no matter how much [the company] sells, or how little they sell, they give you a certain fee to wear that shoe. I'm Big Baller Brand. I don't deal with fees. I deal with a percentage… Once you understand these numbers, it'll make you think, and you're not going to be with them long term."

Besides his prowess in business, Ball has also garnered international recognition for his expertise in basketball training, and his remarkable achievement of having three sons who reached the NBA level. Through his dedication and mentorship, Ball nurtured the talents of his sons from a young age, guiding them to excel in the sport. He has since gone on to share his wealth of knowledge and experience with aspiring basketball players around the world- and here in the UAE as well earlier this year with his Big Ballerverse tour.

Following the success of his tour in Australia and New Zealand, where he personally selected 10 exceptional players under the age of 18 to join the Ball Stars team, and compete in a prestigious basketball tournament in California, Ball turned his attention to discovering talent in the UAE . Ball has declared that he is committed to establishing a similar pathway for talented players in the UAE, creating opportunities for them to showcase their skills on a global stage.

During the training camp in the UAE, Ball guided participants through motion drills, and spoke about the importance of conditioning. He also impressed upon players the importance of mastering basic concepts such as passing and catching. Hosted in partnership with Wildcats Basketball in Abu Dhabi and Hangtime Basketball in Dubai, the sessions allowed players to learn directly from Ball, gaining insights into his training philosophy, as well as his tips for acquiring a competitive edge.

"The UAE is home to many basketball players, and I'm thrilled to witness their skills firsthand," Ball said. "My aim is to provide aspiring athletes with a platform to showcase their abilities, and pave the way for future opportunities in the basketball world. I trained my own sons from a young age, and I believe in the potential of athletes here in the UAE. You never know who might catch my eye!"
