Ask HN: Fashion companies with high R&D spending?
So, I just realised 99% of brands slap on Chinese bare min. quality items their brand and call it a day. Even luxury ones. But, take Nike. You try their flyknit shoes and you go "wow", because they're SO good. They spent $B in R&D and they x10ed the comfort, speed or whatever. Can you name other fashion/clothing/footwear brands/items that actually keep increasing their quality YoY?
