Someone at Adidas thought it was a good idea to celebrate Black History Month with an all-white shoe.
The shoe was part of a collection inspired by the Harlem Renaissance, according to USA Today. To make matters worse, the shoe is called Ultraboost Uncaged.
The shoe is completely devoid of color except for the black soles. We guess red and green were busy during the design process.
You may not be surprised to learn the Ultraboost Uncaged was met with immediate disgust by people with common sense
Chris Fields, MLHR @ResumeCrusade Still tripping about this "Adidas drops an all-white shoe called Uncaged for Black History Month" How'd that convo go?, "Hey I have a great idea, for black history month, let's make an all white shoe!" - "That's awesome" - I

Yo man, your shoes be raciss.
We are truly a sick, mentally ill society. That this actually is what gets taken seriously.
Did they at least have black soles? Or laces? Of course the laces would probably trigger some folks and remind them of being held in bondage. Or something. Did YOU use a black pen today? Racis’!
More weaponized victimhood from black people.
JoMa
For atonement, I demand when they celebrate White History Month they use an all black shoe to even it out.
Good grief. . . .
Really? Has it come to this? This is beyond ridiculous.
I can no longer tell when they are joking.
This is a joke isn’t it?
Shoe.
Color.
Humanity is pointless.
I don't see any common sense in this article, just some angry, race-baiting malcontents.
The shoe was wearing ‘whiteface’.
How about a yellow or brown shoe depending on where they are made?
Insanity.
Also made with cotton so a double fault for Nike.
LOL...that’s funny.
I have to laugh to keep from crying.
So, Billy "White Shoes" Johnson is racist?!?!?!
Well at least the model wearing the white shoes was wearing blackface shoe polish.
