Breaking Down the Nike Price Hikes
About this episode
Nike raised prices again — and sneakerheads are not happy. But before you write off today's prices as the worst they've ever been, the numbers might surprise you. This episode breaks down Nike's latest price hikes in the context of global trade conditions, then compares today's sneaker prices to historical prices adjusted for inflation. Is it actually as bad as the culture is making it out to be? Matt digs into the data and gives his honest take.
