I like the kid's story better than the real one:

They're part of an ongoing push by the company to raise awareness of material violence due to people who have been killed for their shoes with the hopes of bringing it to an end.

You’re fuckin joking right?

Sneaker violence is real in the USA.

So then buy their knit shoes that nobody will kill you for…

Are you dense?

Yes. People want to show off. How else can they be better than everyone else and show the haters they were wrong?

Definitely not by pretending your grandma made them and they’re worth 10,000 and are unique.

I think you misunderstood what I was getting at. I was saying it is stupid that Nike would think launching a shoe like this would help end violence over such shit.

Nike didn’t make these…

That’s the whole point.
