I resolved never to buy or wear Nike back in the late 90s. The companies practices are abominable but I also hated the culture of conspicuous consumption and the way people believed it gave them license to shit on others for not turning themselves into a walking ad. I grew up poor, so I know the feeling of being made to feel less-than because I got Pro Wings on instead of Jordans.
I know you said pro wings what are there any other brands you recommend? Is adidas any better? Been putting off buying new sneakers since Isreals genocide because every brand I looked at seemed to have some sort of ties.

How has that worked out, watching Nike grow and prosper despite everything shitty they do?
Are you simping for a company?
