The sole purpose of some of you is to deliberately come on this board and "verbally attack" our company, products, and people WITHOUT giving a second thought about doing the research necessary for making a logical, substantial statement
What research is needed to be done to be able to compare a shoe retroed today to that of the same shoe that was retroed a few years ago? The differences areglaring. You aren't justifying anything, you are making excuses. Has the grip over the factories been lost THAT much over the past four years? If your"job" is to inform the public, in all sincerity, you make Nike come across as a company in total disarray. A company that has no say in how it'sproducts hit the shelves. Your "you have a choice what you buy" ideology is terrible. In fact, I am guessing Nike doesn't hold that mantra, youdo. The fact that we have a choice what we buy doesn't warrant the sharp declines in quality whilst raising the prices. I'm sorry. You aren'thelping ease the minds of anyone here, you are actually somewhat infuriating them. Also, "research the other end of the spectrum" is ludicrous. Fromyour stance it seems that Nike doesn't carry any blame for why their retros are terrible quality. You act as when Nike places an order it's a crapshootand that gets passed on down to us.
Keep in mind that we do have to alter our production practices at times to be "environmentally sound" and to use "earth friendly" chemicals/materials; and to also do away with chemicals/materials that we have used in the past that we have found to harm the environment.
I'm sorry but this makes little to no sense at all. You've had to alter which materials you can use on retros but not on new shoes? Due toenvironmental concerns you are only able to produce shoes using nice leather on new shoes? There is a huge difference and you are passing the buck by sayingthis stuff is out of Nike's control.
