Well just returned from a wonderful vacation in China and got to see some amazing factories. Im in the consumer product industry(cosemtic) and have looked into transfering my manufacturing to China. While there I toured many different factories and saw many different items that are made in China. Does most people know that Nike sub-contracts ALL their shoes to Chinese factories? Do you realize the real shoes your wearing are being made by the factories that make the counterfits? So for those who are out there and that are die hard collectors I suppose its important. But for those out there looking for virtualy the same shoe at the price that we should be paying for something that covers our feet.......MORE POWER TO THE CONSUMER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
