Public Regal Prices Are Now $335 to $585 NOBODY OUTSIDE the shoe trade can realize what a jolt that trade re- ceived when the Regal Shoe Company announced jts new pricing- policy. HENCEFORTH ” said the Regal Shoe Co., “all the shoes we make will priced at COST OF MANUFACTURL AND SELLING, PLUS FIVE PER CENT. COMMISSION, no matter whether that price figures out in odd or even money, and without regard to the 50c jumps between prices, heretofore arbitrarily fixed in the shoe business.” IT WAS NOT the five per cent. that gave the jolt. The Regal Shoe Co. has always donp business on a five per cent. profit and every manu- facturer knew it, It was the abandonment of the “even price” that caused the stir. THAT “ EVEN-PRICE” policy has been the dariing s.xperstmon of the shoe trade for twenty years or more. Standard shoes had been sold for 50 long at $3.50, $4.00, $4.50, $5.00 and so on, that dealers thought 10 other prices were. possil “BARGAIN” SHOES—nameless. products shoveled m.t by shoe “depart= ments”—might be sold at odd prices. But standard makes—oh, never! IT WAS ARGUEDseriously by expertshoe-salesmen that men and women who Wanted shqes of name and character would rather pay evenprices. That is, they argued thet a man would rathes pay $35.60 than $4.85, whether or not he got anything worth having for that extra 15c. AND SO, WHEN a designer produced a new 5110“ that could be soid for profit and all ‘at $4.85, thg 'manufacturers were up against an embar- rassing sttuat!on. THEY COULD DO any one of thtee things—and some one of these three - things they all d;d' THEY COULD LET that $4.85 shog stand s it was and ask $5.00 for, 1t,> getting an extra,15c. profit; if Re;gal comnpetition would allow it,—or THEY CCULD ADD :15¢ y;;_r‘th of. unnecessary expense to the shoe, bringing its price vp t $5.00 OR, THEY COULD SKIN 35c worth OUT of the shoe, bringing its price down to the rext even figure—$4.50, but spoiling the shoe’s quality- balance. BUT AS FOR DOING the cbvicus and proper thing—seiling that $4.85 shoe for $4.85—why that was not to be thougiit ofi SEEMS RIDICULOUS doesn’t it? But all ‘supesstiticns seem ridiculous after you have e,xpnoded them. - And the Regal has exploded this one. HEREAFTER, Regal Shoes will be built just as the Regal style-builders plan them, They know their business, and they know their public. IF THEY SAY “This shoe is right as it stands—the best shce that can be devised and bmlt for its p. cular want and purpose”—why that shoe is going to the p‘dbfic just as it'is, unalicred by a foolish custom. THE DESIGNERS will not be required to add anything unnecessary to it, nor to take aqythmgout of it, to bring its price up to or down to.any set figure. THE MANQEA%[UR}NG COST of that shoe will be figured carefully; . five per cent. be added and a further allowance covering the actual; * cost of selling that shoe to the customer, and the resulting sum will be _the price of that.parucular shoe, whether it is $3.35, or $3.50, or $4.85, or whatever it is. THE PRICE WII{.L BE STAMPED ON THE SHOE AT THE FACTORY and| certified public accountants will verify the prices and also verify, th fact that only five per cent, commission is added, .
