"I never understood the hype of Jordan's"

This Could quite possibly be the dumbest statement I ever heard.

Someone link up where it cost 2 or 3 dollars to make the shoes?

Even though that is not a justification to not buy something.

Everything you buy Is sold for less than the cost to produce it.

2-3 might be a little cheap, but they definitely are in the range of nomore than $10-15 to make...depending on the materials on the sneaker.

The ones in question irght now are probably on the $10 end...maybe even a little less.

Yes, everything has a markup.....but not everything has a 5,000% markup like Jordans.

and them shyts cost Nike $2-3 to make, I would be :manny: if they stabbed each other over some italian hand made leather gucci shoes but sweat shop Nike shoes? :russ:

:laff: @ getting stabbed over 3 dollar shoes

Link me up to where it cost $3 dollars to make the shoe?

In 2011 Nike had revenues if 20 billion dollars thereof gross profit was 9 billion

That means there were 11 billion dollars worry of expenses to produce their product?

Everything you buy is more than the cost to make it. So that's a dumb reason to criticize someone's purchase.

I think people are confusing the fact that they may pay the people working in the factory pennies to work on an assembly line to the actual cost of manufacturing a shoe

The 11 billion is the cost of revenue.

So advertising would be included in that.

What point are you trying to make?

Materials cost a couple dollars but you have to factor overhead and other misc shyt. That being said, profit margins are still huge:bryan:
