Price Increase Calculation

Sam the Sham is an unfair shoe salesman. He has a pair of shoes that was priced at $ \$60$ last week. To entice customers, he wants to put a " $25\%$ off'' tag on the shoes but he still wants the customer to pay $\$ 60 $ for the shoes. He raises the price of the shoes so that after the $ 25\% $ discount the shoes will cost $ \$60$. In dollars, what must the new price of the shoes be before the discount?
