Nike has a problem. They could make their store into the equivalent of a ghetto bodega, with all the valuable goods behind bulletproof glass. But then, the non-criminals who would like to buy shoes will be offended that they are not allowed to try on shoes before they buy them, and will go to another store.
I think the only solution is to lock customers into the store while they are trying on shoes and only let them out (through an airlock-type arrangement) once they have paid for the merchandise.
They have an entertainment opportunity here.
Set up a fenced “yard” with stands for fans to watch.
Put the sneakers “on the field”.
As the natives go for the bait let loose some big dogs.
This could become a ghetto version of bullfights.
Fun for the whole family!
