blackspot sneaker

[veganwitch]

anyone heard of this??
adbusters, in an attempt to unseat nike, or at least provide an alternative, is creating its own chuck like sneaker. chuck's used to be an american made shoe company that was recently bought out by nike--thus the target of a chuck like sneaker against nike.

but the shoes will be made in south korea. granted it will be a union work shop and the union shop might also work to light a fire under the ass of the other non union shops, i dont see why they cant be made in america, or canada where the magazine is out of.

4. the shoes are

60 bucks.

chucks were never that much money. and because blackspot arent going to have the shipment that nike has, the shipment from overseas is going to be alot of the cost.

i dont see why they cant be made in america/canada even a union shop in mexico.
