I haven't the faintest idea. ...... I still would like to hear some explanation from OO mgmt as to why they want to enter this lower margin (I'm guessing here & could be wrong) business especially at this difficult juncture in the athletic shoe biz. Perhaps times of turmoil are also times of greatest opportunity for a new entrant to gain a "toehold" ....... I can't help but wonder if this foray still isn't an ego thing to get at Nike somehow?
