Trump launches own-brand shoes after fraud fine

Former US President Donald Trump has launched his own line of Trump-branded shoes at Sneaker Con - a convention for sneaker fans in Philadelphia, USA.

His appearance was met with loud boos as well as cheers after he presented a pair of the gold-coloured shoes being sold online for $399.

His move comes a day after a judge ordered him to pay nearly $355 million to New York state for lying about the values of his properties.

Trump is widely expected to be the Republican candidate in November's US presidential election.
