hey what's going on guys this is tyler
0:02
hasakits.com and uh today i just wanted
0:04
to do something a little bit uh
0:09
something that was trending on instagram
0:11
i believe last week actually i came
0:14
across it on nice kicks
0:16
instagram uh news feed it was a bunch of
0:20
jordan retros sitting in shanghai china
0:24
so i wanted to go back to the source and
0:26
see what this was all about so i looked
0:28
on i went and looked up the guys on
0:31
actually actually youtube account
0:33
instagram account and he had a bunch of
0:35
like uh retros like some good ones
0:38
as you can see on my screen right now he
0:40
has like the ones the
0:42
um they're pulling ones and this one
0:45
with a copper or meat midsection and the
0:47
iron man i had a bunch of like even
0:49
though the royalty 12 they're not even
0:51
out here and a bunch of like stuff that
0:54
here is sold out that are sitting in
0:56
them people were pretty thirsty for it
0:58
and i guess his inbox was full of people
1:00
asking him for an assist basically they
1:02
wanted him to hook him up hook him up so
1:04
i wanted to discuss the reason why this
1:06
is taking place in china this is the
1:08
guy's instagram account
1:10
and i want to look it up and he's got
1:12
does some pretty crazy stuff man like so
1:15
i kind of wanted to discuss this this
1:16
morning i don't want to show you guys
1:18
this is now i'm just wanting to show you
1:19
what it was so i want to give you my
1:21
reasons for why i think
1:23
and this is taking place like i'm not
1:25
surprised by it you know i actually
1:26
wrote an article on it but i know people
1:28
don't like to read okay a lot of people
1:30
don't like to read articles so i decided
1:33
i'm just going to do a video to kind of
1:34
break this down a little bit and then
1:36
and show you exactly what what i think
1:38
about on this whole situation
1:40
now uh first let me explain a couple of
1:43
reasons and let's get to it in just a
1:46
minute quickly uh i actually had to just
1:48
go and kind of lay it out now the first
1:50
thing i want to talk about is like
1:55
this is a huge huge huge thing because
1:58
people change their taste but always
2:03
i wrote a post like a few
2:06
a couple of years ago when i talked
2:08
about uh actually let me see if i can
2:10
grab it and i can get access to it for
2:11
you guys but in the course i discussed
2:13
uh vultures so basically the vultures
2:16
were made up of like uh overseas bulk
2:20
and they were always going to stores and
2:22
like ravaging the entire entire malls
2:24
like i remember i live in like um
2:26
maryland and and lake forest mall is one
2:29
of the model exactly dying but
2:31
uh i'll go in there and then they'll see
2:35
all older asian folks they were like
2:36
somewhere they were like 1665 so they
2:39
were basically buying this thing that we
2:40
selling in asia and sending it now i
2:42
don't know if they were selling in china
2:43
so to speak but let me go back to my
2:45
earlier point but there were a bunch of
2:48
selling those sneakers and it was
2:50
virtually impossible to get anything and
2:53
then foot locker actually had to change
2:55
uh a lot of their reward system because
2:57
these guys were using on the coupons and
3:00
bridge gear abusing it and they screwed
3:01
up for everybody else so there was a
3:03
bunch of them so about what the question
3:04
is why am i bringing this up that's
3:07
because there's been a decrease on asian
3:09
shoppers i have not seen them at all
3:11
i've actually gone to the mall and i've
3:14
not seen any of them buying any sneakers
3:16
anymore so and the reason why
3:19
i think that's due to an increase in the
3:23
which explains why the shoes are sitting
3:25
because the supply is now
3:28
increasing over there so what's the need
3:29
of buying them over here the only reason
3:32
why they were buying it here is because
3:34
there was not an influx of shoes so
3:36
therefore they could just they now they
3:38
can just buy it overseas so they don't
3:40
have to buy from us retailers because
3:43
jordan brain again listen jordan brain
3:45
is not stupid they follow what people
3:48
talk about they know what's going on in
3:50
the market they have relationship with
3:52
the retailers so they know what is going
3:54
on in the u.s market so
3:58
the asian market because this is the
4:00
thing jordan brand wants to make the
4:02
most money from their sneakers so if
4:04
they see that a lot of asians are buying
4:05
the shoes why not supply asia better and
4:08
just diminish the production in the us
4:11
because those shoes were sitting in the
4:13
walls like you were walking moths and i
4:15
i was buying like jordan retros like the
4:18
even the the black and uh the black and
4:20
green jordan 13 that came i forgot the
4:22
name nickname on the show i bought those
4:24
i was buying this for like 119 from my
4:26
local gtr so if those things are selling
4:29
well in asia why why don't we flood the
4:31
asian market and yeah and then let those
4:34
guys buy it over there why allow because
4:36
jordan brand want to maximize their
4:38
profit they want to capitalize on
4:40
that's what he did now
4:43
but there is repercussion today if you
4:45
floor the market what do you think
4:46
happened the the result is shoes begin
4:49
to sit and that's what's happening in
4:51
front of us because customers especially
4:53
in asia they are fickle they're like
4:55
they're fleeting okay their taste buds
4:58
change like a like a clock because they
5:00
constantly want something better and
5:02
then it's just the vanity of men
5:05
as humans we don't want what everybody
5:08
else has we want what we can't have
5:10
basically because we want to have
5:11
something unique so therefore this is
5:14
typical of like a lot of asian consumers
5:16
because an item that could be like a
5:18
hardest commodity today can lose its
5:20
value in a short period of time because
5:23
consumers always want what they can't
5:25
have and once the market is saturated
5:28
with a particular commodity interest
5:30
fades quickly and that's what's
5:33
so in essence businesses are the mercy
5:36
of the consumer because when their mood
5:39
people don't want to buy it anymore they
5:40
go you know what everybody's getting it
5:44
spinners and now those puppet puppets
5:46
whatever everybody wants it but once
5:48
everybody has it now nobody wants it
5:50
anymore because it's no longer something
5:51
that it's like unique again that's the
5:53
vanity of men so that could be one
5:55
reason why uh shoes are sitting because
5:58
consumers are fleeting they just don't
5:59
want care they just don't care anymore
6:01
about these sneakers they don't want to
6:02
deal with it because now the market is
6:04
flooded and everybody can get it so they
6:08
now the other reason is the abundance of
6:10
fake sneakers in the market and this
6:13
could be a huge reason i'm going to get
6:14
into it in a minute because
6:19
jordan retros there's why they are not
6:21
being bought out anymore because with
6:22
the introduction of like the new breed
6:24
of fakes they're called now option b
6:27
sneakers okay fakes have graduated they
6:29
change names every time so now people
6:31
are calling them like option b sneakers
6:34
and then laws are prohibiting the sale
6:36
of counterfeit maybe a little lacks in
6:38
asia i think they have like some strong
6:40
laws but i don't think the repercussions
6:42
are as bad as they are like here so
6:45
people don't want to deal with the
6:46
shenanigans with like release dates uh
6:49
problems every time you want to get a
6:50
shoe there's so many problems you know
6:52
with the bot with all this nonsense so
6:54
people don't want they don't want to
6:56
deal with it so the chinese consumer has
6:58
mostly like shifted an opted for these
7:01
option b sneakers which are first of all
7:03
easier to obtain and they are more
7:05
affordable they are cheaper and they are
7:07
easier to get so and i've shared like
7:09
photos of like several prototype jordans
7:12
and they're absolutely like jaw-dropping
7:14
like if you see somebody's face like i
7:16
said fakes have graduated i mean if you
7:19
people are buying them and they don't
7:20
even care because now it's basically
7:24
accepted to buy fake sneakers you don't
7:26
get crucified anymore you don't get
7:28
excommunicated because now effects have
7:30
been so easy to get and people actually
7:32
want it let me just show you a couple of
7:33
pics of a fix that i've seen just to
7:35
show you the extent to which they've
7:37
gone man let me show you that in a
7:38
minute now just take a look at this
7:40
right here i mean look at an incredible
7:44
i'm just gonna click on some of the
7:45
pictures now these are all shoes that i
7:47
have not even made it into the scene
7:50
just yet these dudes are already have it
7:53
so many effects and some of them are
7:55
like super nice and the quality is just
7:58
incredible so the temptation to i mean
8:01
it's not your fingertips look this is
8:03
the off-white too they're not even out
8:05
yet they're not even out but look
8:08
they got them out already because the
8:10
bootleggers got it out and the shoes
8:12
look darn good so people are like why am
8:14
i gonna wait for a shoe that i can't get
8:16
if i can get it right now i want it and
8:19
i want it now so therefore they're gonna
8:21
pull the trigger because it looks great
8:23
and nobody crucifies you anymore for
8:25
wedding fix actually people actually
8:26
tolerate it so therefore why not go for
8:29
it so why not why should i why would i
8:32
want to wait to get the travis cart if i
8:35
can get it right now and i can pay a lot
8:37
less than retail instead of paying at
8:40
two thousand dollars or a thousand
8:41
dollars so i'm gonna get it now so
8:43
therefore i don't wanna go to nike and
8:45
buy anything now this is the soulfly
8:47
jordan one now look at this
8:50
they're so quick they make these things
8:52
so quick they have them all out
8:54
you know what i'm saying
8:56
and the quality is incredible they do
8:58
use like top-notch materials so people
9:02
i'm not gonna i'm not gonna buy
9:03
authentic shoes if i can get a fake one
9:08
they ain't even out they've already got
9:10
them out you know good quality shoe you
9:12
know they got the key sizes they got man
9:14
sizes they got every size you need and
9:16
you pay probably like 140 130 for them
9:19
so people are like hey if i can get my
9:21
hands on it now i'mma get it you better
9:23
believe i'm gonna get it
9:24
i wanna deal with jordan brain you know
9:28
i mean they got all kind of stuff
9:30
they even got stuff that's not even out
9:32
just yet and they got it more
9:34
lined up for you and then these are all
9:36
like affordable sneakers like people can
9:38
buy now and you don't have to go through
9:40
through the shenanigans of of the bot
9:43
and all the nonsense so therefore people
9:45
are like hey i'm gonna go ahead and get
9:47
it right now i'm gonna go for the option
9:49
now there could be another reason why
9:52
uh these sneakers are like sydney in
9:54
china now the second the third reason
9:56
which i i think probably is one of the
9:58
biggest reason is the kobe 19
10:00
repercussions basically what has
10:02
happened is the supply is still low and
10:05
that's because of kobe 19 and the demand
10:08
is still fairly high in the usa so
10:10
however what you see is like the jordan
10:12
one means are also like slowly becoming
10:14
like dust collectors they're not selling
10:15
as well anymore so i'm suspecting that
10:18
because of shipping issues because of
10:20
kobe 19 jordan brain has decided to just
10:23
all of his like north american inventory
10:26
into the chinese market
10:28
resulting in the excess because a lot of
10:30
shoe stores were not getting their step
10:31
like you you go like i went to a local
10:34
foot locker and they just got their
10:36
jordan 5 raging bull so if nike's having
10:39
trouble bringing the shoes over here why
10:41
not just send it to the chinese market
10:42
and just offload everything over there
10:45
so again but the question is all these
10:47
reasons could be potential reasons i'm
10:49
not sure this is like
10:51
actual truth but i'm just throwing like
10:55
some reasons for you out there to kind
10:56
of explore because we don't know what's
10:58
really going on but all we can tell is
11:00
that it is a shift and for me what i
11:03
think about is like if if i'm a brand
11:06
adidas or my brand like uh
11:08
sarcani or new balance which new
11:11
battling is making is making some stride
11:12
right now so they're killing everything
11:14
they've been always killing it so but
11:16
now they're even better so what i'm
11:18
saying is right now is the time to
11:20
capture that evasive market because
11:22
people are fleeing again their taste bud
11:24
changes all the time so right now is the
11:26
time to say hey listen if i'm a brand
11:28
i'm going to capitalize on this and just
11:30
go for that consumer that's always
11:32
trying to change its days down but so
11:34
again this is my reason number one i
11:39
uh people are fleeting second is because
11:41
of fakes on the market and then third
11:43
because of kobe 19 repercussions because
11:46
shipping is still delayed so therefore
11:48
the brains are probably offloading all
11:50
their stuff uh in the country where they
11:52
are being made so this stuff is made in
11:54
china for the most part so why not just
11:56
sell it in china right now because we
11:58
have trouble bringing them in the united
11:59
states so this is why
12:01
these are doing this way now if i'm that
12:04
guy shanghai so this is a perfect time
12:06
to create some kind of business where
12:08
you can actually sell all these
12:09
to to other people that are actually
12:11
looking for looking for it so hey this
12:14
this is again this is how business
12:16
starts you see an opportunity you see a
12:18
need on the market and then you supply
12:19
that need and he is in a perfect
12:21
baseline in china so why not do it
12:24
all right so that's all i wanted to talk
12:26
about today but i also wanted to mention
12:27
that uh uh i i wrote several articles
12:32
now you want to see the fake off white
12:34
i'm showing you in here how to
12:35
authenticate them and i also talked
12:37
about the jordan 4 right thunder and the
12:40
jordan 3 pine green and the gundam um
12:44
sb those are also out so i did a reverse
12:47
