Competing shoe companies are going to kill each other for the chance to make money off that brand

Who, other than Michael Jordan, still makes a ton of money off shoe deals post-retirement? Much less a guy who isn't alive anymore to market the product at all. I'm guessing their issues had little to do with them making enough shoes for kids and more to do with them wanting more money for the deal than made sense to Nike. In thre short-term, I'm sure the deal would be very lucrative, but in the long term? I don't think so, and she wanted a lifetime contract? What does lifetime even mean to her? Her lifetime, her kids' lifetime, etc?
