LRCW is on vacation, how'd you get in his closet?

 

The shoes flew out, I didn't have to go in.

 

:lol:

"The German-based shoe company had vigorously defended the shoe design on Monday."

 

How could you defend this shoe? Ugly is as ugly is, stupid is as stupid does. What idiots.

I can see how black people would be offended. I'm not but I still can't figure out what the shackle is for. Are people getting shoe jacked on basketball courts and mountainref hasn't started a thread blaming Obama for it yet?

I guess I don't get it. Why would black people be offended?

That whole slavery thing from the 1800s. You may have heard of it. :D

Blacks will likely say that young black kids/teenagers will be the main ones wearing these basketball shoes and the image these shoes create with young blacks having shackles on their legs connected to shoes sends the wrong message is my guess. You'd have to ask a black who is offended. I just think they look stupid.

White people don't wear shoes?

I agree.

I thought of prison shackles when I saw them. I didn't think of slavery.

That's what I thought of as well. Slavery never crossed my mind until I saw that Jesse Jackson had some kind of comment about them.

I thought it might be a marketing strategy by the Bengals.

I said what blacks will 'likely' say.
