But the sportswear giant says it’s an “isolated occurrence.”

An isolated occurrence that happened in one of the biggest NCAA games of the year, to the biggest college basketball player in the nation. With an ex-president watching. Way to go, Nike - might want to give those poor Indonesian kids who assemble your shoes a little more glue to work with.

Forced laborers in Soviet gulags would deliberately sabotage the products they were making to embarrass their oppressors and deny them income from future exports.

Just sayin’.

I’d have preferred this to have occurred with the Fraud watching more than any US President.

I posted shortly after the incident, that i guaranteed NIKE execs were figuring out their spin already....

Taking out the expected number one overall draft pick because your shoe literally just obliterated itself on a simple foot plant....

An isolated occurrence or fake occurrence.

He'll be back on the court in less than 3 weeks.........Sheesh!

Best-fitting shoes I ever has was a pair of Nikes...

...until the sole literally fell off.

No joke. That was 20 years ago when Air Jordans were selling for stupid-high prices. When I saw this story I both yawned and cheered, the latter hopeful for some attention for this horrible company and its shitty products.
