"It's not like that, Cousin wants to create a luxury brand, and if it's shoes, then we're talking about the kind where a casual pair goes for thousands, even tens of thousands," Yan Yan continued to explain.
"In that case, it's even less possible," Yan Dabang countered, citing Wenzhou's most famous two shoe companies. "A casual pair costing thousands? Even Aokang and Kangnai can't sell for that much, and they are already very good domestic leather shoe brands, aren't they?"
"Yes, and that's why the problem lies with the words 'domestic.' When those two companies started their brands, they were based in our own country.
During the era when these two Wenzhou leather shoe brands were established, probably not even their founders ever thought about creating an international fashion brand.
Their main method of exporting was OEM.
Moreover, those two brands have never really been fashionable.
