Michael Jordan wore that bran, so those must be the best basketball shoes?

what kind of fallacy is this?

It's the "fool and his money are soon parted" fallacy. Just because a big-name star athlete promotes something on TV, doesn't mean it's the best. It may just be the most expensive, in order to generate the MILLIONS of $$$$ the big-name star athlete was paid to do the ad!
Reply:No, this is the brand that paid him the most money.
