Can't wait to pay $300 for a pair of shoes. I don't think we should be taking business advice from a guy who couldn't make a drop ship coffee business work with infinite free advertising.

Those new Nikes will be much more expensive, when they are finally available in a few years. Americans will buy fewer shoes starting tomorrow. Fewer staff needed in that supply chain. More workers needed to build new Nike factories, which need resources. Those resources must come
And you use non-American vendors for your merch??? Practice what you preach!
Would them making shoes in America be great, yea sure, would the average American want or afford the prices those shoes would be if they were in Americaโฆ.no.

I was just in Vietnam. Because so many shoes and clothes are made there it cost 80% less to buy it in Vietnam. The stuff was crazy cheap.
If Nike moved production to the U.S., labor costs would be 15โ20x higher per worker, not to mention the billions it would cost to build and operate factories here.
Even with the 46% tariff, shifting production to America would just drive prices way up for consumers anyway.
Tariffs like this shouldn't affect foreign media coming into the US like anime right?
Its only a drop of 10%, which is pretty normal for stocks like Tesla. It may be a wakeup call to woke Nike, but its nothing compared to other stock swings.
Republicans to Trump: Maybe rethink the whole tariff thing, please?

These things are grotesquely overpriced anyway. The company could manufacture them in Switzerland and still would make insane profit.

like I would ever shed a tear for Nike, the foreign sweat shop king!
Maybe you should make some shoes rather than offer political/economic insights. I canโt imagine you being any worse at that.
Of courseโฆ. Just move 130 factories to America over 20 years and start paying people 20 dollars an hour to build shoe so that we can all buy $3,000 Nikes!
What a brilliant fucking plan!
If you're seeing this, it must mean you support Trump.

Right for the price they charge for what amounts to $20 in labor and materials, it's absurd
If you think tariffs are the problem, you're the problem
Stop choosing companies/govt/favoritism > consumers

So why wasnโt that done before? Answer, Nike make a bigger profit by outsourcing manufacturing to a country where people are paid less. Americans will want to be paid more for the same work, and therefore Nikeโs profits drop. Americans wonโt or canโt pay higher prices.
Right, because we all want to pay $400 for a pair of Nikeโs and make them so expensive nobody else in the world will be able to afford them.

The shit you sell isn't even made in America, but my favorite thing about you morons talking about "just make it in America" is you talk like you can just get a modern factory built in a few months. You should be dragged along the bottom of a river.

Do you understand how long it takes to set up a supply chain? To plan it, build it, staff it and scale it? It doubtful we even have the skilled labor in this country to do this. It could literally take a decade to change that! I'm all for making shoes in America but it takes time
Ah, yes, those millions of Americans dreaming of working at shoe factories, I see that flood of applicants. They wonโt know what to do with all those cvโs
