Announces a New Policy That Will Shake Up the Shoe Trade Regal Prices Are Now $335 to $555 Here is a letter from the Regal Shoe Company that will begin a new era in the shoe business. It will be an earthquake for the shoe trade, but, like other Regal innovations, a benefit to the public, in which purchasers of Regal Shoes will first share. No concern having a plant and organization less powerful than the Regal Company’s could dare to so defy trade custom. But— It Means Greater Variety and Greater Value in Regal Shoes Than Ever. To Regal Agents and Regal Customers Everywhere: Boston, February 1st, 1911, The retail price of every shoe hereafter f)roduced in our factories will be the manufacturing cost of that shoe, plus five per cent. commission and the cost of selling. Except that we shall not ““split’’ nickels, every price will be fixed exactly as it thus figures, regardless of whether it comes out in odd or even money. Thus, if the cost of any model, plus 5%, is $3.85, the price of that model will ée $3.85—not $4.00, or any other figure. And this price will be verified and certified by chartered puflic accountants and stamped on the shoe at the factory. This smashes the immemorial shoe-trade policy of building all high-grade shoes to fit certain arbitrary prices. The trade will, undoubtedly, rise in protest against our action, and call us ‘‘price-cutters.” But like Regal innovations in. the past, it will benefit Regal customers. In face of that fact we can disregard this protest as we have others. This is NOT a price ‘cut, although the result will be to give Regal Shoe buyers better value for price than ever before. Regal Shaes have always been priced at 5% above cost of manufacture and selling. But, according to: universal custom, the prices were fixed BEFOREHAND at $3.50, $4.00, $4.50, etc.—and the shoes were built AFTERWARD to fit those prices. Hereafter we shall regard the shoe as FIRST in importance and let the price fall where it will. Regal customers will therefore profit by numberless small savings represented in the new Regal plan. And in designing Regal Shoes we shall no longer be obliged to keep one eye on the shoe and the other on a fixed, arbitrary price at which it must be sold. We shall now keep both eyes ON THE SHOE, to the improvement both of style and of value. Very truly yours, NManaging Divectoy Regal Shoe Company. Do You Realize What This Bombshell Letter Means? This means an ena of the arbitrary prices on shoes. to pay a@ certain price. Why should he be forced to pay in half-dollars if satisfaction could be given in dimes? Why must he pay $5.00 if @/ ¢kat Ze wanted could be had at $4.85? Hereafter, as Mr. Bliss’ letter states, every Regal price will be made to fit the shoe, not the shoe to fit the price. Ifthe Regal Shoe-builders produce astyle that can be sold for $3.85, then $3.85 will be the price. _These arbitrary prices have for years been fixed on good shoes immovably at $3.50, $4.00, $4.50, $5.00, $5.50, and so onj; each price always a half- dollar jump away from the next. If a designer produced a new shoe which could properly be sold at, say, $4.30, the manufacturer had either to ‘ake something out of it to bring the Nothing will be added merely to bring its price to price to $4.00 or to @dd extra and unnecessary $4.00, nor will anything be taken out to make its expense merely to shove the price up to $4.50. price 83.50. The customer gains both ways and the egal style-makers now have afree hand, unfettered by tradition. Thusyou can see that under the fixed-price system the customer often had to buy and pay for more than was actually necessary. True, the difference was seldom large—20 to 30 cents at most—and true, too, that in Regal Shoes the full money’s worth was always given. But, what the customer wanted was TO GET A SATISFACTORY SHOE—not With this new freedom, and with the whole atten- tion of the Regal organization fixed on standards of quality, regardless of the ups and downs of the leather market, Regal Shoes will more than ever be the best that money can buy.
