They could give the inventory away to needy people either here or in some other country. But, I guess they care too much about social justice to do anything like that.

Can’t they sell them to the tens of millions of white supremacists that the Biden administration claims there are in the U.S.?

They would go perfectly with those “Philadelphia Eagles Super Bowl LVII Champions” T-Shirts.

Funny. I just read yesterday that Adidas was started by and named for a Nazi sympathizer.

So it’s about $10 million in costs for Chinese labor.

Probably not an issue for them if sold in the middle east. Seriously, we all know it.

Considering the last time they made a Super Bowl was about 30 years ago, those would be some real old shirts.

“Geez heaven forbid if they donate them to kids in Africa that would love to have shoes like that”

What happens to African shoe makers when you dump thousands of “free” shoes into their market?

Interesting design but not worth $300.

The Daily Mail posted two pictures of this nutjob, in both he’s wearing a Trump hat.

Give them away for free to people who need shoes instead of burning them.

Go woke and get stuck with thousands of dollars worth of merchandise you can’t sell.
