Stick a little NOS sticker on the side, add a giant spoiler, and boom, you're running in the Olympics.

Since everything in the shoe is glued, it is hard if not a hassle for a part to get replace. Most will just throw it away and get a new pair.
Hmm.. I can see it now. Nike's new customizable show with optional rollerblad kit, ski kit, snowboarding kit, shox kit, led kit, etc. Add stickers to make your shoes run faster.
you've got it backwards.

First of all, carbon fiber alone is pretty flimsy. It needs to be epoxied, and then you'll have a Dutch footsheath instead of a contemporary shoe.Originally posted by: TechnoKid
To think...a completely carbon fiber shoe...or kevlar...

Actually, this whole Nike thing sounds like a really scary idea to me. Who knows, given enough time, people will probubly start ricing out their shoes. :Q

I believe Qacer's mistake was confusing cost with price. In many industries, per unit cost goes down as manufacturing volume increases, regardless of consumer demand - microelectronics being most notable.Originally posted by: GtPrOjEcTX

if supply and demand are high, price equilibrium
if supply is high and demand is low, prices go down
if supply is low and demand is low, price equilibirum
if supply is low and demand is high, prices go up
