The history I've heard was that the OG fortune cookie man was a Japanese immigrant working as a gardener at the Japanese tea garden in San Francisco's Golden Gate Park. He based the fortune cookie on a similar Japanese cookie called omikuji

the quality argument is so tired and dumb. It didn't just get like this. Its been like this for years.
What someone thinks is good quality is based on personal belief. We don't all have the same taste on quality. Some people like flank steak and think its great. Some like rib eye. I don't fault someone who likes flank steak if thats all they know.
I buy maybe 2-3 Jordan releases per year. And its not because i dislike the quality. I dislike the difficulties it takes to get shoes now. Resell price was the only way for me. And i can't compete with this culture anymore. You guys are way too serious for me to think i can compete.
You should already know about the quality before you get them. I think we all are.
Its a shoe. Not that serious to me. Its a damn shoe you put on your feet.

Actually, CNY is the prefix for the Chinese currency, (the Remnibi, which incidentally is known as the RMB or Yuan when in China). Chinese Yuan.
like USD, GBP, EUR and TZS while we are at it.

higher retail prices doesn't always mean higher resell. It will deter some resellers though. Look at all Jordan's that were 220. Very easy cops.

Yes, space jams will be hard, but shoes do have a market limit and resellers will need deeper pockets to spend 220 on a shoe. 72-10s were sitting some spots. Nike usually does a good job producing lots of xmas 11s.

it's easy to say that when you're not throwing in production numbers. Most of the easy cop jordans were mostly because of high production numbers

Yes, but the reference is in regard to the Chinese New Year Ultra Boost, not currency. Casper didn't know at the time of the release what the CNY stood for. People simply referred to them as CNYs. The irony is that he's Chinese.
