Aston Martin - Walking on a Long Dangerous Path.

**JGiefer** · 02-23-2010, 09:32 PM

Aston Martin has teamed up with the Kobe Bryant brand and created this bastard child:

And here is the catch, the price is $550. Yes, that's in USD. And if you look carefully at the tongue you'll notice the famous "Made in China" tag.

I'm sorry, but the questionable SUV, then the blinged out Smart, and now this? Someone slap some sense into Aston. Nothing but whoring out the brand.

I dont see anything Jordan here...

Not good. I can see a brand extension similar to the Bentley/Breitling watch line, but Nike shoes?

Sorry my bad, totally was thinking about Jordans when typing this, haha. The website I got it off had pictures of some crappy Jordan ideas.

I don't agree with this idea either - but I guess in these tough times they're doing everything and anything to grow the brand. Even if they end up diluting it in the process.

They are destroying the name Aston Martin. This is the same thing that happened to Gucci in the 80s.
