When they go on discount, who loses the money? Does it come out of the charity money first, or straight out of Nike's pocket? We all unfortunately know the answer...

The shop's pocket, really...Nike gets their money for the product up front (~55% of MSRP is the wholesale rate.
 
If someone would be so kind as to check out my legit check on Midnight fog highs I'd appreciate it.. And rep obviously.

Different than what I expected but it is still the same story: Nike sticking everyone else with the costs of business so they can continue to flourish.

to be completely fair this is America. That's pretty much the name of the game when it comes to retail business.

This...

The main reason outlet stores exist is because of the crazy markup on most clothing.

Most companys in a position like Nike can leverage that to their advantage, but they still have contracts that say that certain product can go back after a certain amount of time, problem is most people dont want to do it because with a company like Nike you get put on the sh*t list and maybe you get a 1/2 size run instead of a FSR on the sought after releases cause you cant move the product.

Honestly this is fairly common in retail, and the only companies that really bend over backwards for the businesses that sell their product tend to not be doing so well. Basically those in a position of power will always use it to their advantage, nothing wrong with that imo, its just capitalism at its finest.
 
 
They actually generally stay put fine. 

Having said that I wear my shoes looser than most people so YMMV
Yea while most my lows you see that bow knot tied at end they're all more loose laced than what alot of ppl would like but it's so comfortable to be able to let your feet breath. My highs I generally leave hanging unless I feel they look better tied. But it's harder to do looser lacing with highs imo cause it seems like there's never enough lace haha
I feel exactly the opposite...I slipknot all my shoes like they come from the factory, but I NEVER have enough lace in my lows.
 
i do it cuz they tend to slip out at the lace hole i have em in. with that being said if i laces em to the previous hole i have to much lace left over and eventually the shoe is too lose for my liking (hate heel drag) i remember in middle school my shoe heels would be beat cuz id be wearing them too loose. with that said i do the knot at the top lace hole to give me a nice fit not to loose but deffintely not strangeling my feet. sometimes i keep em at the lower hole but tie em depends the way im feeling when i first put on the shoe or lace swap is when ill tie em up a certain way dunno if that makes sense lol
 
I only have one pair of lows (Cincos) but I skip the hole under the top four and do an X pattern. The X holds the laces in place on its own. I still tie them but only because I tie all of my shoes.
 
For lacing my dunks, I tend to skip the hole thats in the "corner" or "transition" if that makes sense.

Also anyone notice that the laces have been shorter recently. I can't even lace them up to a normal height and theres almost no room left to tie a knot
 
The favorite ways to lace my shoes period is to lace them loose but us almost every lace hole
Appreciate the input guys

looks like skateshops figured out demand for the BHM is low. Every single 1 is posting on IG that they have "VERY LIMITED QUANTITIES" "only 9,10,12,13" "dont sleep"...its kinda funny (& predictable) actually...

hope they sit so that Nike doesn't try to pull this $135 **** again.
