What's Nike trying to do, market large size shoes to "transgender" biological males?

Yes there are some biological females with large feet, but the vast majority of people with large feet are biological males.

Women who have large feet still have the feet of a woman, which is shaped differently than a normal male foot.

Nike is publicly traded. Management can be held personally responsible for doing something unnecessary yet highly controversial if it destroys stock values.

This was incredibly stupid on the part of Nike’s management.

Can we please stop with the “gender affirming” doublespeak?

In my home after decades of sneaker purchases MY backlash occurred due to ridiculous ill fitting contoured soles, leather that prematurely separates from the sole, Squeaking noises occurring soon after purchase, The companies WOKE agenda, Use of slave labor, etc....
Switched to a similar Reebok Cross-trainer model and it was like moving from hell to heaven.
Sooo comfortable....FINALLY, holds up well, no squeaks and stays new looking for a long time.
Goodbye Nike you lost this 43 year customer FOR GOOD!

This was a stupid move. There was no way to look good regardless of the outcome of the study. If you find it’s HELPFUL, then you’ve offended all your normal customers. If you find it’s HURTFUL, then you’ve offended all the trans people in the world. As NOTHING is EVER allowed to be said that doesn’t 100% support their cause.

Nike is a globo-homo company that likes to use their origin / start as a nice story about their origin, but that's not the values they have today.

They are supra-national and amoral. They will support anything which they think makes them money.

Have seen this one before. The Truth, as usual these days, is a rare find among a sea of ambiguity

I have never bought a Nike product in my life.

And never will.
