Donald Trump Booed While Promoting $399 Sneakers 1 Day After Court Orders Him to Pay $355 Million

"I think it’s gonna be a big success," the former president said while being met with boos at Sneaker Con over the weekend

Donald Trump is facing criticism after he promoted $399 sneakers a day after a court ordered him to pay $355 million as a penalty for fraud.

The former president, 77, showcased three different pairs of shoes while attending Sneaker Con at the Philadelphia Convention Center in Pennsylvania on Saturday.

“I’ve wanted to do this for a long time. I have some incredible people that work with me on things, and they came up with this. This is something that I’ve been talking about for 12 years, 13 years, and I think it’s gonna be a big success," Trump said, according to video shared online.

Amid his comments, the politician was met with boos from those in attendance at the event, which describes itself as “The Greatest Sneaker Show on Earth."

Among the items Trump was promoting were shoes known as the "T-Red Wave" and the "POTUS 45," which are both priced at $199 and feature a “T” and the number 45 on the sides.

A pair of gold footwear deemed the “Never Surrender High Top Sneaker," which similarly feature a “T” on each shoe, meanwhile, was priced at $399 and is currently sold out.

The purchase of a pair of sneakers — which are not tied to Trump’s presidential campaign or the Trump Organization, given that his name, image and likeness have been licensed to CIC Ventures LLC — comes with extra laces and a Trump “superhero charm." The website is also selling a “Victory47” perfume and cologne for $99 each.

In a statement obtained by PEOPLE, Biden-Harris 2024 Communications Director Michael Tyler reacted to Trump's promotional appearance over the weekend, stating, “Donald Trump showing up to hawk bootleg Off-Whites is the closest he’ll get to any Air Force Ones ever again for the rest of his life.”

Trump's appearance at Sneaker Con occurred a day after he was ordered to pay $354.9 million in penalties following a lengthy civil fraud trial on Friday.

In a 92-page ruling, filed by Judge Arthur Engoron, Trump was barred from serving as an officer or director of any New York corporations or legal entities for three years. It also restricted him and the Trump Organization from applying for loans from New York-chartered financial institutions during the same time frame.

The trial served to determine Trump's punishment after Engoron ruled in September 2023 that the former reality star committed fraud while building his real estate empire.

The ruling came just three weeks after a New York jury ordered Trump to pay $83.3 million in damages to former Elle columnist E. Jean Carroll for defamatory statements he made about her in 2019.

Since leaving office in 2021, Trump has been involved in several legal issues and investigations on various fronts, including into his political conduct and business affairs.

Four of those investigations have led to indictments, including the first, which made him the only U.S. president to face criminal charges.

The next two, meanwhile, further distinguished him as the only president to face federal charges.

Trump — who hopes to return to the White House in 2025 — is polling well among Republican voters and appears the front-runner to earn the party's presidential nomination in July.
