And I'm confident he knows they're fake, it's something he would do just to do it.

That's probably why he threw them to the crowd in NYC during NYE.

Real or fake, big Mac would have done that anyway because it's not about the shoes, it's the exposure. It's keeping the hype train moving.

As if any other sneaker costs much more than $20 to make. What you are paying for is quality control and sometimes that isn't much better than fakes.

You think authentic Nike's that are made in China with cheap materials is quality?

$2.50 for Labor? LOL........To think these hard working people in terrible working conditions are without unions yet public employees here get back pay and are retiring with yearly salaries over 50k
Rant over, this does not change a thing, I'll go back to buying my $200 plus Lebrons and act like nothing happened

Nah.
That materials cost is lower. All materials cost for nike is rather low cause they but in bulk.
Companies don't sell shoes for nike. Nike sells shoes to companies such as FTL, FA etc. for usually 50% of what the MSRP is.
Of a shoe retails at 150, nike sold it to the retailer for about 75.
If it were to cost nike 30-40 per shoe, I don't think their profit margins would be where they are.
Most of the cost in a shoe, (at least) a new design is in R&D. Paying those dudes salary to design, make a mold, trial and error and etc .

Retail is barely fair imo, considering the materials are sometimes better on nikes cheaper shoes. I understand they have royalties or w/e to pay but seriously thou

damn all these rumors. These fake bs release windows have gotten really annoying. I'd like to have the shoe release just so ppl stop coming up with random release info that ends up being false
