Make the shoe in America and charge $1000.

Ultimately it's not Nike's fault...even though it's low rent. It's the gullible consumer who lives out the media message of you are what you own.

Maybe a pair of sneakers with the original American flag on them? Garsh mr. tegu, you should be in marketing.

[Strongside]

These shoes could have sold for $140 on the open market.

Now they’re $1500 collectors items.

Nike knows EXACTLY what they are doing.

[DelFan]

This will probably start a reaction from consumers toward Nike similar to what happened to Gillette when their commercial was not well received.

Yeah, the marketing isn’t working (post #125 on a Chiefs board). I assume there’s a dumber-cousin version of this in dc as well.

“Did you see Nike was selling flag shoes?”
“Don’t we hate Nike, though?”
“Yeah, what were they thinking! We’d never support them!”

Holy shit dude, I forgot how stupid you were. There is nothing good to come out of this for Nike and you have to be a moron to think so.

Are you going to go out and buy Nike because of this? Nobody is.

Can you provide links to these news shows that call people “blacks” everyday?

You are absolutely correct. This is CP, the authority in racial propriety. Only this website, with its PhD-moderation team and constituency of generational history masters have the authority necessary to delegate proper use of language and terms.

Did I mention pee in your mouth? Great!

He'll probably respond in a few days saying it wasn't his intention...and Nike misunderstood...or some other horseshit.



People are talking about Nike though...and thats all they want.

This is the most likely scenario. Moron Kap does not have the authority or ability to tell any company what they can and cannot produce. I'm sure a multi-million-dollar shoe company is going to pick up the phone for Kap moron and say "oh yeah thanks for the advice bro, we didn't want to sell any shoes anyway; we'll go ahead and take those off the production line. Smash 'dat patriarchy"(!)

God, and his son Jesus, would really appreciate it if his peeps didn't call them "blacks" as he Himself was not a white man. They would prefer that you don't label anyone as anything other than a son of God. I feel like they have been quite clear on this subject. You can find reference to it in any hotel room FFS.

This is all in spite of Fox Entertainment's clearly successful, dark and evil training, and brainwashing otherwise. In fact, Fox Entertainment is the anti-christ and you are sucked in. As a son of God, I beg you to break away from Fox Entertainment and their false idol Donald Trump and get yourself saved before it's too late.

Trump is the Manchurian and you don't see it. You are destined to hell as a result. But you don't have to go there man. Get off this doomed path you have chose for yourself and your children.

This is your intervention. Take it seriously.

Loses millions in expansion incentives and market share, . . . make hundreds on a few bootleg pairs of shoes.

Don't be a psycho Strongside.

A) I don't watch television news.
B) The last time I checked, the Hebrew race were not "black". Take your Ethiopian nonsense to DC where some idiot might actually listen to it, please. Thank you!
