Adidas Creates Shackle Shoes
This entry was posted in Business/Economy and tagged Adidas, blacks, footwear, racist, shackle shoes. Bookmark the permalink.
They shouldn’t pull them. Why aren’t the radio stations who promote prison culture to the black community boycotted by black people than? I’m black and I don’t understand the double standard in the black community. We are fine with radio stations promoting black on black violence, the sale and use of crack cocaine in black communities, and getting as many black youth into the “system” as possible all day every day. They advance the notion of single parent homes, the welfare state, and every other possible negative stereotype out there…. And yet all of a sudden black people are pissed about these shoes? The leaders of the black community are rappers who promote every possible means of self destruction. We (black people that is) are just fine with that, but these shoes “whoa that’s too much”…….. It’s just bizarre.
Excellent, excellent points.
I think Adidas has been shackled… they will not be ‘moving forward’ with this crazy-stupid product.
Just getting people ready for the feeling of shackles around their legs. Great way to transition into the chain gang.
Prison chic for the aspiring punk.
Why stop there? Adidas should come out with orange jumpsuits, too. That way, we can save public funds that would have been spent on prison uniforms for budding criminals. And, even better, why not offer apartment complexes that have iron gates for doors? This is absolutely brilliant.
Love your ideas.
it is getting to the point where absolutely nothing surprises me,,,,,,,,,,,I agree why in heavens name are we catering to the welfare criminal state? The funny fact is that the criminal element will be proud to wear these and possibly kill each other for them. Waiting for the next idiotic idea,,,,,,,,,,,
You’re right–they would probably kill for them. These violent kids are doing that already.
haven’t retailers been “outfitting” our youth with ghetto / hip-hop / inner-city / prison garb for YEARS??
Ask yourself this – Aren’t shackles designed to connect ANKLE to ANKLE — NOT Foot to Ankle?
In America, you have the FREEDOM to choose. So, go exert your freedom AND CHOOSE NOT TO BUY IT!
Yeah, the shackle shoes go with the rest of the inner city hoodlum assemble.
Do you ever think you can’t read anything as stupid as…”this” … hold on… I think there maybe more to come. I am in desperate need for a company that stops catering to the dumb/criminal/useless members of our othewise great country… Come on America stop buying this crap. The companies that donate to planned parenthood is a good start… read then, buy elsewhere ! Good grief! Although there is that mentality that ‘shackles’ are a good thing… at least with the groups that are known to fall in love with their captors!
The Patty Hearst syndrome—gee, I bet the S/M ‘community’ will jump at a chance to buy these little booties.
I don’t know what the fuss is about. I think this is brilliant (free market?) — watch for copycats. These could be a symbol of solidarity for, say, a lover or parent/child/friend/pen pal shackled to the “system”. Kinda like Livestrong bracelets.
And don’t forget the S/M market.
Might be good if you ride a bicycle. Keep your pant legs from getting wrapped around the chain. Could happen 🙂
Now that’s an idea. I bet that’s exactly what the Adidas folks will say as they stumble around for an explanation of just why they thought these things were a cool idea.
