not a crazy prediction. My prediction: Amazon. I have a few pairs of their branded shoes. Simple, cheap, effective. People will eventually realize the newest neat-o feature in the latest shoes are not that big a deal.

But Nike / UA would never let that happen which is why they pay them millions of dollars in endorsements. And if it did happen, Nike would acquire the new company in short order.

- zelly 7y agoShoes are a Zahavian signal. It doesn't matter how comfortable or convenient the shoes are. Its primary purpose beyond protection of your feet is to prove you are with it. Same applies to iPhones and designer clothes.
