All I have to say is Kaepernick cannot / does not / has not lived up to this slogan and NIKE is promoting this slogan with this lazy bum. Poor business practice. Their shoes are not worth the price and does not last.

ReplyDeleteHave been using a variety of their products since the early 1970s when they were just getting started. That just came to a complete and irreversible halt, including stuff for extended family.
Done. Fini.
Their products are over-priced garbage and so is their mascot.

ReplyDeleteOverpriced products made in third world countries for pennies.

Both he & Nike are tools of a feather.
The largest producers of Nike shoes are the factories located in China, Vietnam and Indonesia, although dozens of other countries also contain Nike factories; these countries include Malaysia, Pakistan, India and Thailand.
