That's how many "deals" Nike has out there.

When you can make a shoe for $7 and sell it for $100...

Exactly!
Each shoe is made for approximately $10-20, they sell that same shoe they had made and bought on Pennies on the dollar for a 400% markup..
That same material is used on mostly every shoe including cheaper brands yet your paying for a schwoosh mark and some expensive commercials that lie and target weak minds by getting marketing deals with big names..

Luckily i have direct connects to China's shoes imports and get all my shoes i like for the price the distributor gets em for.

..

Right-
a 'deal' is here is a bunch of free stuff for wearing shoes that aren't any different than any others except for the logo.

Then Nike says '54% of NFL players wear our cleats...'

BTW- did Bell lose his deal, or just his cleats?
