They work in Asia in sweatshops where it costs the company a pittance to pay
employees compared to manufacturing them in the United States. A worker
once stated that it would take her a whole month's salary to pay for one pair
of Nike shoes. She also stated that the management would beat her in the face
with a shoe if they found her work to be unsatisfactory. Nike used to be my
favorite brand, but after hearing the above on a 60 Minutes tv show - I no
longer buy Nike in protest of sweatshop conditions. Shame on Nike.
