Jordan Brand. WTF?!



"I was fortunate enough to see a product order sheet from one major sneaker retailer a few months ago. They purchased a pair of kicks (bulk order of course) that retailed at $150 for about $74 per pair… profit is about half the shoes overall retail value for said retailer, approximately $76 profit on every pair sold for retail value . That means that Jordan Brand should be making at least half of the wholesale price in profit as well, making the total cost to produce a finished product at about $37 per pair."

<------->

..If you didn't know the Flint XIII that's dropping in November, have a msrp of $160..

..Is this going to be the fucking box price for all upcoming Jordans?..

..The fuck are we getting charge 10 dollars extra for the new supposed Jordan Box or some shit..

..Shit is ridiculous..

..Meanwhile, the fucking materials they use are garbage and yet were getting charged more..

Good look Def lol, I had to do it after the retail price hike... at $150 a pair I was able to keep quiet about it but now... hell no.

I was JUST talking to my boy bout this about a week ago. Doesn't matter; nigs will still cop regardless of price. I've been done with JB since they jacked the prices up, retro'd retros, and started using inferior material(s).
