COUNTER-KICKS!
R.I.P. BIG...BUT WHO STILL SEW TIGERS ON THERE SHIRTS & ALLIGATORS?.
Well New York City always been the #1 in setting trends, and street wear has been dominating sales across the States and maybe even the World. It seems like New York City has been ahead of the world in the latest gear and being one of the first to have a line of sneakers or any clothing items. It's a culture that people from outside the country seem to catch on to. Shoppers from all the world who have a passion for being the one of the few people with all the latest kicks would travel from other states and countries to purchase these items in NYC. Noticing that, companies from all parts of the world would manufacture the products without consent from the companies, they're piggy backing off of the ideas and selling these items here in New York. Some of our very own and many other traveling shoppers are fooled into buying some of these counterfeit creations. Brands like Jordan, Gucci, Polo, and many more are being made in colors never seen and sold at very affordable prices, making a killing in our own backyard. The real companies who take their time in making the products are pissed. One of NIKE reps explained " No disrespect to President Obama, but NIKE wouldn't make a sneaker for him without a cause. We respect all of this nation political views. Whether our views may vary or are the same, we must also please each and every customer. If we design an Obama shoe we should also design a pair for every other president that represented this country with pride".
In solving this long going problem, officials set up sting operations and has been trying to crack down on these false companies. A few warehouses where the items been stored and sold has been shut down. Sorry for those who went out and spend $140 on some Jordans that was said to drop in 2018!...they are called Fake Nike, Nike Factory Variant , Custom Nike.
