Jinjiang - where Adidas and Nike based their China factories starting in the 1980s - dominates China’s production of sports shoes and trainers.
With a population of fewer than 2 million people, Jinjiang is home to as many as 5,000 shoe producers, employing one in every three local residents.
The county is home to three of China’s four largest sports shoes makers Anta, Xtep and 361 Degrees, all led by executives sharing the same surname.

Think he meant to take over Nike and Adidas is "too soon right now" instead of "quite soon right now".
yeah, he made a mistake, I auto-corrected it in my head... lol
At least everyone is able to buy a decent sport shoes. In my childhood buying a pair of Nike ...might cost me a fortune due to high price.
China industry of shoes brings a positive market for everybody
wait what are you trying to say
Vince Draeko he is trying to say buy Chinese products
Most of products are made in China. It became affordable fo everyone to buy. But it is your choice to buy....
Nowadays most of items are made in China. Some even have their own brands
@@NarutoUzumaki-ze4be sorry Im not saying to buy Chinese products but this is base on my own experience. Who do not use Chinese products?only a few wealthy ppl
totally agreed... but now everybody can buy it with fair price
I have a tropical illness resulting in swollen feet. I cut beach sandals from China on the top part of the shoes and put laces in. The soft rubber like compound called eva it is ideal. A pair last about 7 weeks. It cost about the same as two liters petrol. I walk with it 3 to 5 kilometers a day. It is wonderfull having shoes causing no pain. I am very very happy with it.
PLEASE SHOW US THE CHINA PAINTING DISTRICT!!!
@Lord Azreal Lais
??
On my Instagram factory4hire you will see the painting district
@OMGitsAzreal
Yes and??
Looked up immediately where would I buy them where I am from. Hope they take off internationally. :)
Where do you buy them?
I heard if you open a tea shop on a busy sidewalk in China & sell only tea 2 go, you will become millionaire.
Not millionaire. But rich yes.
Lookup HEYTEA, LUCKIN COFFEE, ROYALTEA,
True
It's odd that people who tell such stories aren't millionaires.
yes,it ls possible.
One of my favorite running shoes was the Asics Tiger Epirus.
Asics are my basic, half worn brand. The shoes I just tote around in the dirt for. The other pair is my brand new signature shoes. I hardly wear them because people just love to ruin brand new things in the world, huh?
The HOLY BIBLE in REVELATION 20;10 explain where we are going when we die. Are you ready?
@Hoy Sum The Asics Tiger Epirus had, I think it was called, "blown rubber" for its sole. From what I remember the soul had a decent thickness and didn't easily wear out. I have the white, blue and tan color scheme and the black, orange and white pair too.
@Hoy Sum I wonder how much money it would take to get one shoe designed and have a Chinese company manufacture thousands of pairs of such shoe... I'm not serious but I am just curious about the cost.
Thanks for the cool video. You mentioned there are over 5000 shoes companies in Jinjiang but only 3 big ones? That sounds like a lot of shoe companies. Are most of the 5000 shoe companies tiny operations with no brands or are they trying to compete with the 3 top guns (Anta, Xtep, 361)? Also, would love to learn more about the competitive dynamic between the 3 big guys.
Well said
China is doing great in the international market
Yup. I can recommend one UA seller. To be honest, I was shocked by their craft. I have bought 5 pairs including Yeezy 350 blakc reflective and TSxAJ 1 highs and lows. Every one is great, perfect. I can share their ins if you want.
I am buying Anta from now on. Thanks for giving me an insight into Chinese brands.
I love Li Ning shoes
Pourquoi?
I don't care about brand, i care what i get for the money i m paying.
Try on a pair of Peak Taichi. Immediately realise that the gap between Chinese sneakers technology and those from Adidas and Nike are getting much much closer.
serious ASMR with the Xtep scientist dude...
I am not sure if anyone outside of China would buy them personally I have bought Chinese clothing and shoe brands but most of them I had issues with trying to find something that fits me usually I have to get it 2 size bigger than what I use anyone else been in this situation as well? 😑
Asians are generally smaller than europeans and others. So it's only natural that our sizing system is scaled down compared to the system you have where you live
@@wanderingsoul881 u tryna say we asians small? Okay maybe we are ur right lol
LifeWithNicolas exactly. Then I go to the NIKE section and I find the perfect pair in less than 5 minutes
@@xalpacazeu1332 yeah impossible too many design is a freakin wholesale take ur time..
I had a friend that worked at a shoe company also in Shenzhen.
Man.. it's like DIY clothing warehouse (spotlight brand) store and readymade shoes design and products all in one..
Does anyone know how I can get specific parts of shoes like in 0:18 they just have the fly knit material with no outer sole?
1 2 3 Four Five ktech they supply the knit for most shoe brands
You can purchase them easily from alibaba.
Alibaba
Awesome. Cheers guys
To be an international brand, they need to have strict quality controls.
Just remember what napolean ever said about china,it's become a fact
Xtep shoes are durable shoes. Affordable also.
I thought li ning is one of the largest chinese sport brand
It was but expanded too much between 2010-2015 then stepped into financial problems. It is still a top brand but very hard to find particularly in physical shops because they sold a lot assets to pay bank debts.
Aw, I want the chinese to make my shoes.
they already do genius.. didn't you watch the video?
And in Malaysia we have Adidas Kampung and Penguin shoes
Chinese marketing is far short. Ask anyone in USA if they can name a famous Chinese brand. Perhaps if they stopped waiting to jump into the American market, they would be known by now.
a famous Chinese brand..hmmm COVID-19? SARS-COV 2?
Next they are going to put air propulsions in the shoes
xAlpaca Zeu shabi,a new word for you
Bruce P Shabi bch.
Bruce P why does my comment trigger you that much
They still churn out Nike and Adidas shoes now, just not for Nike or Adidas.
Oh... They own K Swiss and Wilson now
Li Ning was born here?
Nope. But born in China, yes.
Affordable price? I checked the Chinese brands in China (Hainan) and they cost the same as Nike and adidas.
Nope. Much cheaper compare to all the big players.
X step is only 25 to 50 dollar ,well cheap enough
Bayu Kusuma Adi Saputra I can buy 2 pairs of NIKE, coupons do help

Lol I still get my shoes from there.
If you know how to use the internet
Buy the non-branded shoes from the same factory. Theyre the same quality as Nike and Adidas
Philippines has marikina
Jinjiang? in Quanzhou, Fujian? lol it used to produce loads of Hokkien chinese immigrants all over southeast asia, now its the shoe capital of china?
I want a pair! 😮 😗

Who else read "Xinjiang" first?
Vietnam and india have more strict quality control.
We.have more better measures for.quality control
More and more shoe company already more out of China to Vietnam and India.
China already have their top brands to take over. No fear for them
Making shoes for general public are low end technology. China is focusing on high end shoes.
nobody can beat china!!!!
I want to buy from India for my business purpose how to contact you
Love shoes cina,from indonesia
Udah tes lu merek mereka?
What about COVID-19 freshly delivered from Wuhan?

yehoutube it’s called “new” for a reason
@yehoutube
It took U.S. 200+ years to beat civilizations that had thousands of years of head start, and that looks bad for the U.S.? You are on the internet commenting on streamed video. Who created that? Moon landing was U.S. copying who? Chinese 50cent army : " We have skyscrapers now, so we are the best, nevermind we don't even have civil rights."
Just ni ke

When my Niki’s were made in Vietnam, they were awesome. They were extremely well built and lasted a long time. Then they started falling apart. Squeaking in just 2 days. I returned them to the store and was told that ever since the Niki Air production moved to China from Vietnam they have had nothing but issues with the shoes!
Are you saying that Vietnamese manufacturing is a problem or Chinese manufacturing is a problem?
On guard - I think the root of your problem is your pm trudeau.
IndraEMC mhd He doesn’t make my shoes! NIKI does and the Vietnamese factory workers make a better shoe (same shoe) as their Chinese counterparts! In China it’s always “Where can we cut back to make more money?”...in my case, it was the glue used inside the sole! It broke down in a few HOURS of wear!
@@truenorthstrongandfree3699 You are as duuummb as your pm trudeau if you think any of us will believe your story.

Wow knock off Adidas Stan Smith's at 0:57
Still seeing no originality from China's shoe market, but the shoe shown there is such a blatant copy it's just a bad fake.
Boostmaster Lin hq here?

Who is going to wear Chinese shoes after caronavirus??

...try another career. Its "Xin" jiang not Jinjiang. There is a "Jin" jiang in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
They need better designs for the shoes
