    When Balenciaga shoes were manufactured in Italy I could (ever so slightly) agree with the pricetag. They were the Ferrari of sneakers so to speak. But now they're mass produced in China, so IMO they should be priced in the same realm as Nike/Adidas/etc.

    @@danielkim6751 I am definitely not saying that they are all the same, because they're definitely not. I am just saying that the labor costs of producing these shoes in Chinese factories is MUCH lower than the costs of producing them in Italy. Therefore there's no longer a legitimate reason these Balenciaga sneakers should still be priced the way they are. Plus, I've read many accounts of a decrease in quality ever since the manufacturing got moved out of Italy.

    You made the point perfectly. I maintain that many of the less popular Jordan's (14 and up) would be high fashion sneakers if they weren't "Jordans". If the 18s came out of a fashion house and were called dix-huit , they'd be covered like Yeezys in prior years.
