The Women’s Air Jordan 8 Aqua originally released in 2007 and is making its first return after 12 years. Nike is releasing the sneaker in extended sizes so men’s with relatively small feet will be able to add this to their collection as well. The brand is charging $190 for this shoe and the justification is this increase in price is the extended sizes of course. When the shoe originally released in 2007 , the cost was $140; let’s quickly if the $190 price tag is consistent with the changes caused by the inflation. According to the cpi calculator, the shoe ought to cost about $177.12 ( let say $180) so the consumer is basically paying $10 more than expected. With that said, let’s try to figure out how many pairs might’ve been possibly produced.

good morning guys on this history for
0:03
mice and cakes and this morning I had a
0:06
have a quick show for you and we're
0:09
gonna be talking about women's aqua 8
0:11
now those like the jordan 8 in general
0:14
it's like one of the shoes that sheetal
0:16
overheat
0:17
I got personally don't I'm not a fan of
0:20
the jordan a heat I mean I love playing
0:22
basketball all the shoes that I have but
0:24
I felt like it too bulky and too heavy
0:27
you know so I've never really was like
0:30
one of those guys are like the eight now
0:33
these are aqua eight in women's were
0:36
originally introduced in 2007 and so
0:40
Nike decided to bring him back this year
0:42
for the summer and the colors are pretty
0:45
much like summer colors you know a
0:47
little bit bright and everything over
0:48
there
0:48
so I am I goal was to trying to figure
0:52
out how many pairs were made but the
0:54
thing is this like the price point kind
0:55
of like aggravated me a little bit it's
0:58
190 but I had to like go through a
1:02
series of like dub which I can stuff to
1:04
make sure that was consistent so I'm
1:07
gonna actually show you the shoe real
1:09
quick you know this is the toe box where
1:11
the stripes the 23 on the stripes and a
1:14
little bit of teal some kind of full
1:17
grain leather and then perforations on
1:20
the side for circulation and a more
1:24
strap here to secure your foot and the
1:28
back and the inner liner has a sleeve so
1:30
to secure for your ankle again these
1:32
were made again for performance purposes
1:33
so now let's get into the actual
1:36
presentation so what I will do is I'm
1:38
just gonna show from my hair thinking
1:40
over here so let's get out to that like
1:44
I said you know this is like gonna be
1:46
available in extended sizes now when
1:48
they came out in 2007 he was 140 so now
1:52
in 2019 as like 12 years later we want
1:55
to make sure that the price is
1:56
consistent so I went in double check the
1:59
Inflation Calculator and according to
2:02
the our CPI calculator you're supposed
2:04
to be paying like 170 7.12 let's say 180
2:07
so you basically pretend a little bit
2:09
more now Nikes gonna justify this by
2:12
saying that they are available like it
2:14
in extended sizes that's why the price
2:16
is a bit high
2:17
all right so we're not gonna waste time
2:19
on that we just trying to figure out how
2:20
many pairs were made so the first thing
2:24
that I did was I went and I wanted to
2:26
talk a count of women was getting the
2:29
shoe so confirmed his Nike finish line
2:32
Hibbert in stores and online and then
2:35
for the man had changed
2:36
downtown locker room Abrams installed
2:38
only silly gear shoe polish keeps USA
2:40
installs and ng me guys now I might have
2:44
missed like some some other stores but I
2:46
feel like with this number we have
2:48
enough information to make some arm bolt
2:51
on prediction now now the next thing I
2:54
want to do is I set up my assumption so
2:55
I'm assuming that the minor chains will
2:58
get about one fourth for the entire
3:00
inventory and then I'm also assuming
3:02
that each retailer is gonna get like
3:05
mine everything's gonna get the same
3:06
amount of shoes for their physical
3:07
locations so if kicks USA get like 8,000
3:11
and every other retailer is gonna get a
3:13
thousand for a physical location and a
3:16
fit also felt like each minor retail
3:18
will receive the same amount of shoes
3:21
for their online stores all right now
3:23
I'm also going to assume that the online
3:25
allocation would make up about one third
3:27
of the entire inventory given to each
3:30
minor retailer and then I'm assuming
3:33
that the last one the last assumption is
3:35
that everybody's getting like 18 pairs
3:36
per store and then we're gonna now
3:39
trying to compute our numbers now I use
3:41
kick USA because they provided the most
3:43
information so I can only got 30 kicks
3:46
USS stores and I get it like in a
3:48
physical location so to get the number I
3:51
just did 30 times 18 came over 540 and
3:54
then I counted five additional minor
3:58
retailers I counted all together so for
4:01
all the minor retailers is gonna be 540
4:03
times 6 because it's 5 in addition to
4:06
kicks USA so altogether it's gonna be 30
4:08
to 40 now out of all these six stores
4:11
only four were again the shoes online so
4:14
what I did was I just took that number
4:15
did four times five forty I divided by
4:18
three because that was based on our
4:19
assumption so I came up with 720 and
4:21
they had to find the total for minor
4:24
retailers I did 30 to 40 plus 720 and
4:28
came over 3960 and I took it up to like
4:31
four thousand pairs okay
4:32
and now well since we assumed that the
4:36
minor retailers I get about one for for
4:38
the entire production to get the grand
4:40
total we do four thousand times 4 which
4:42
is 16 thousand pairs that's for the USA
4:44
and I'm thinking maybe 32,000 worldwide
4:48
alright now the next thing people want
4:50
to know is this should I flip this shoe
4:52
now when I checked it like a couple days
4:54
ago stock X only recorded 12 cents there
4:57
was no sales only be on your own stock X
4:59
and I don't be fooled by the the mark
5:02
off here because bigger size is
5:04
obviously people one those sizes like
5:06
size 13 and all that they were going for
5:08
a 280 but I'm sure by now they're gonna
5:10
go down let me actually check it in
5:12
front of you but what I said in
5:15
conclusion was this like the picture is
5:16
very green as you can see like no sales
5:18
on eBay and only 12 cents on stock X and
5:21
this is like five days before the shoe
5:23
actually releases now bigger sizes
5:26
obviously are selling for more so if you
5:27
ask me whether you should flip this or
5:29
not I would say stay away from it don't
5:30
even waste your time to trying to say
5:32
you want to grab this to flip it let
5:34
people that want to actually go out and
5:35
get it okay now we've got say let's go
5:37
on stock X and let's do a quick check to
5:40
see how the shoe is doing now and I'm
5:44
gonna go on stock X and I'm gonna type
5:46
it over here and I'm gonna also do the
5:48
same on eBay at some point as we are
5:52
doing this let's see acqua see this okay
6:00
let me actually I'm gonna go back and
6:01
just look at it numbers over here
6:04
computer is a bit slow today boy I don't
6:08
like that I don't like that I don't like
6:10
that and I do not like that okay let's
6:14
see okay
6:16
1907 additional senses the last time I
6:18
checked it price is like two hundred and
6:21
four good luck trying to flip this let's
6:23
check on eBay real quick I don't even
6:27
think he way recorded in the sales way I
6:29
met you there was nothing on eBay
6:34
probably I mean somebody want to feed us
6:36
his soul see nothing no sales
6:40
none of these so that's the old style
6:42
the old one so these shoes it's probably
6:44
