    Given the size of his asian fanbase, this is a really good move financially for him.

    Not sure if Xtep owns Saucony and Merrell. They do own K-Swiss, though.

    I think you can probably wear flip flops and have more respect on the court

    I used to own some of them Starbury shoes. Ben Wallace had his line as well. They were affordable man.

    You are right. Xtep has a joint venture with the parent company of Merrell and Saucony for products under those brands in China. So there are Merrell and Saucony shoes that are only available in China.

    Lin's new shoe is Xtep's first entry into basketball gear.

    No doubt. If you can play in flip flops, you probably have mad-skills...
