about 20~30 dollar to make a 140 dollar shoe, i think there was a news article talk about profit margin.

https://shoemakersacademy.com/cos...a-sneaker/

basically the retail price is about 50% of MSRP just for retailer to exist. and then 50 cent for shipping if you average it out from china to us. and then the import duty, and then whatnot.

granted, the cost to make shoe is only the recurring cost, there is nonrecurring cost that hasn't been captured.

that said, i do rate clifton highly. i think they are on par with lone peak and on cloudgo, i just don't think they worth (for me) over 100 dollars as i can got other shoes for about 90ish.

Your head is going to explode if you venture into the fragrance market.

More so than the furniture / mattress markup?

Seriously. It feels like every doctor and nurse has been wearing Hokas for the last few years.

Come with me in China and we can buy a bunch. FYI I have been to China several times and I have not seen high quality shows like these for sale.
