One of the mysteries of life. Does anyone really believe that people think them to be athletic or sporty from their footwear?

They were overpriced already. Buy non branded sneakers. I do that for years now. Not going to pay for their advertising. They don't pay the workers enough who actually makes them.

American Citizens continue to send the message to the White House, “HANDS OFF”!. Reminder: 20 Elections in April. Visit Ballotpedia and your local government offices to see if you can offer your services as a volunteer. VOTE BLUE! https://ballotpedia.org/Elections_calendar

A couple years ago, probably pre COVID, I was looking to get a new pair of kicks, really really didn't want to support Chinese sweatshop manufacturing, but for the life of me, I couldn't find any sneakers made in the US with all US materials. Some constructed here ALL with Chinese made materials.

We are seeing more disruptions in the distribution of goods with new massive,wide spread, tariffs. Few businesses will benefit as some go out of business, others run losses, and may take years to straighten out. Consumers pay the price as Economists explained, all due to Trump's incompetence.
