I don’t remember Nike’s being cheaper since production has moved to China.

Ya got me there. I taught yoga so I had bare feet covered with many pairs of socks. I gave up the tennis shoes a LONG time ago.

Therein lies the rub.

Prices have NOT decreased, however, profits have increased.

Quality? Well, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, I suppose. Especially when it comes to Chinese made meds/supplements....or, melamine in your pet’s food.

They aren’t. But you can make them 40 to 50 percent cheaper in China. Labor is the biggest chunk, followed by regulations.
