You won't find genuine brand names, including Nike shoes cheaper in Thailand. Genuine stuff is almost always more expensive even if it is made here.

I would suggest you do not buy Nike

Quote:

Recently, factories producing for Nike in Thailand have been shifting production to subcontractors and non-union facilities and to the provinces where wages and benefits are even lower. For example, unionized workers formerly producing for Nike at the Thai Iryo Garment factory in Rangsit were laid off while Nike production shifted to the Garment Tech factory in Bangkok and VT Garment in Sathupradit. Many workers have been laid off from the unionized Thai Iryo Garment and Par Garment factories just to wind up producing the same products for subcontractors and receiving lower wages without legal protection

they are a typical multinational exploiting company

so buy the copies
