the people who buy their products are primarily young and far left

Perhaps, but if the money is coming from Mom and Dad, the outcome may be different. (Or even Grandma/Grandpa.)

I have size 12 EEEE feet, and New Balance makes great off the shelf tennis shoes and Gore Tex hiking boots. They fit like a custom shoe or boot.

Then they last 23-4 years in spite of everyday use of the shoes in good weather and the boots in bad weather.

They are made in America, feel great, and I can get them online and on sale at Big Five.

PF Flyers are made by New Balance in America.

There is a reverse snobbery with some private school guys/gals, where PF Flyers are worn by conservative kids in private schools.

We have grand kids and grand nephews/nieces across America, who wear these shoes.

They would probably get the hell beat out of them in public schools if they wore them in Nike Hell Holes, aka public schools.

Proudly made in the USA, it’s an American classic in every sense of the word. Manufactured in the US for over 75 years and representing a limited portion of our U.S. sales, New Balance Made and PF Flyers Made in USA are premium collections that contain a domestic value of 70% or greater.

Might be an opportunity to short Nike stock.

Good to know about that availability of PF Flyers. And the fact they are made in the US has to be another positive virtue.

Worse, they are contributing to the notion among young black men that they are being hunted down by the police, arrested for bogus reasons, and tossed in prison for minor crimes. None of this is true, but Nike decides to pander to this dangerous idea by making a cop-hater into a hero.

The left is showing their true colors. They want nothing less than anarchy. They are destroying respect for the Constitution, the justice system, and the police in the hopes that the US will be destroyed. I sometimes wonder if Soros envisions himself as some kind of Dr. Evil plotting to destroy all governments and take over the world.

Nike will pay dearly for this fiasco. Just watch their stock in the next few weeks.
