I don't know if this has been asked or talked about before but why do sneakers sell out? I'm talking about why only a specific amount of pairs of a new sneaker is put out and sold then its finished.
Why doesn't nike make X,XXX pairs of a shoe then just take custom orders after its been sold -- so that way a sneaker never really sells out -- Imagine all nike sneakers ever made you can order it straight from nike and nike sends your request to the factory and has it made and shipped to you a few weeks later. They do it with NIKEid already -- seems like they would make more money and they would single handily stomp out resellers forever.
Just something i had on my mind and thought id ask.
