Why aren't retro Jordan's selling out anymore?

Last week I walked into a footlocker and found some Air Jordan 6 Maroon sitting on the shelf. Usually shoes like these would sell out in an instant . For example, the 2014 Air Jordan 11 Legend Blue sold out within a second online. Now in 2015, you can still find Jordan 8 aquas sitting on shelves, Jordan 6 Maroon and even Jordan 11 72-10 if your lucky. This leads to my question on why these shoes aren't selling out anymore. Basically, Nike is mass producing these shoes and also adding am extra price tag on these shoes. Shoe stores are saying that they now get an extra 500 pairs of these shoes. Back then, Retro Jordan's were limited but now you could walk in to a Footlocker and see these shoes in front of your face. Also Nike is boosting the price on these shoes. Jordan 6's used to be $185 but now are $220. With this higher price tag, people aren't buying the shoes anymore. This also resellers. If you don't know what a reseller is, resellers are people who buy items and sell them for more. Since Jordan's are a lot more expensive, nobody will pay resell prove which is from $20 to $100 dollars more. That really sums up everything to why Retro Jordan's are still sitting on shelves. Thanks for reading. 👍🏻

  1. All of those are ugly and overpriced; that's why they don't sell out.
