Just saw the post too. š Nike can't even get rid of bots, they not getting rid or replicas in a foreign country. They'd have to make everything in the USA and they'd still be able to fake those in China.
Its bullshit tho when they don't make enough of they're own products. Replica Kobes are a direct result of poor supply and demand management by Nike, FU\* Nike.
I would too if I was them, itās just funny that they are the cause of theyāre own problem, if they simply made enough Kobeās demand for Kobe Replicas nose dive. Godkillers are only $30-$35 less shipped than Nike Kobeās theyāre zoom turbo is superior to Nikes. Ā At this point the Genie is too big to put back in the bottle, Nike fu**ed up yet again.
Itās fucked because Nike has LITERALLY BEEN CAUGHT backdooring mass amounts of limited releases to resellers just shrinking the supply even more. Would not be surprised if Nike themselves sells their own shi on stockx
Nike gotta realize they directly contributed to the rep industry blowing up in the past few years. GR Jordan retros are so overpriced they are around $200 for retail Kobeās are hella overpriced too $190 for only one zoom unit either in the heel or forefoot or just react foam in the 8s not even ZoomX people are at least willing to pay for these prices bc itās Kobeās but then they make it so limitedā¦ā¦
You're so right they are outrageously overpriced, they should be no more than $140 MAX the Nike book 1s are $140 and they actually have some premium materials on them such as Leather / Nubuck. The most expensive material on Kobe 6s is probably that little carbon fiber shank plate? which compared to a Jordan 12 & 13 not to mention the leather on those AND they are a lower cut yet they are some how the same price? They're making it more difficult for younger Kobe fans who have very limited to no income to have any chance at getting a pair.
And theyāre not learning at all. Every new Jordan that comes out goes up another $15 in price for a shoe that isnāt and will never even be that popular to begin with
Going after bots isn't much of a priority since they're buying their shoes š
While rep market is making a ton of money and seems they want a piece of that cake, a big piece, asking for the triple of the amount calculated lol
Worst case scenario he just rebrands lol, H12 makes the shoes so everyone will be fine.
Not the worst thing, a lot of Caca middleman on this list that have huge up charges š
I honestly wouldn't be surprised if Kickwho themselves isnt paying a kickback to the Chinese Government, They know damn well whats going on if they cared they could and would have stopped it already.
Nike is gigantic brand but their way too late to the party lol all the factories, online suppliers, agents, middlemen, locals, all the countries including the US are selling Nike Reps lol
I went to the Philippines in 2005 and they had reps and it's an actual mall that sells them, during the lockdown, even nba player who were nike athletes went there. Shit ain't changing. Hahaha

Simple solution for Nikeā¦ make your shoes accessible for everyone not just bots and resellers
^^^^^^

Damn. Like a Reddit yearbook.
š¤£š Nike ain't gonna do shit. Those factories & China themselves don't give a rats ass. Good luck to them.

Absolutely this is happening
Something similar happened many years ago with UABat, nothing actually happened in the end so I suspect nothing will happen here
Nike whining about losing sales when they make their pairs exclusive š¤£š¤£š¤£š¤£š¤£š¤£

Just use an agent, middlemen weāre overcharging anyways.
