I like Nike because I base my shoe purchases on how comfortable the shoes are.

**TheMoneyShot** · 04-10-23, 12:28 PM

Still trying to figure out 1. How Nike makes the revenue they do? 2. How can they afford to pay Michael Jordan... 3. Who would actually buy this sh##? Each shoe must cost literally $1.00 to make. No thanks.

Doesn't really matter to me what it costs them to make. I try on various shoes and purchase the one I like best based on comfort, style, and price. For me, comfort is primary factor. I have size 12 flat feet so I usually try on like 20 or 30 before I find one.

I haven't purchased a good gym, cross training, or basketball shoe in quite some time. Reebok usually has a late Summer sale... coupon code of 50% off... and that's when I load up. But to be honest... the quality... colors are ridiculous. I'm all about FLAIR... but some of these designs I wouldn't wear out in public. Embarrassing.

Not a big fan of UA either. It's all gone to sh##.

I hardly care what it looks like. And I'll pay whatever is needed for comfort. Shoes are for comfort only, I hate wearing shoes.

Funny how some people base consumer purchases on what the consumer wants.

I'll even go to Hobby Lobby if they have what I need.

How's your iPhone going.

I agree that Nike is not a good company to support due to their history with slave wage labor, but it's kind of "woke" and "cancel culture" to pick out just the one company you think has opposite political beliefs to you to get all outraged about.

I was wearing Nikes this morning and my iPhone is doing well tyvm. I am also not in support of $20 to work at McDonalds because working there isn't supposed to be a career. Its mostly for students who need to save up for a car or beer money and get some work experience along the way. Also for seniors who want to get out of the house and do something. Also, where are those college graduates with degrees in gender studies gonna work after they are finished? I am not pro union either (I do think there are responsible union shops) and certainly not a anti-capitalist.

Nike doesn't even make wide or extra wide. Very uncomfortable.

NewBalance and Sketchers make extra wides (4 E). Now that's comfortable...

You dress like a dork? Of course you care what it looks like. There's some absolute bullsh## styles these days. I wouldn't wear the sh## at 18 years of age.

**TheMoneyShot** · 04-10-23, 02:36 PM

Every damn shoe is rainbow colors... queer... just make a simple stylish black shoe. Is it that hard? I have a lot of friends who are runners... they can't believe the rainbow bright running shoes out there. They are sick of them. Just make something simple. Sh## design and feel.

**bonzaii** · 04-10-23, 03:29 PM

How can anyone even watch this freak? He is so disgusting to look at. This world continues to get more and more evil as the seconds go by.

**Auto Donk** · 04-10-23, 03:30 PM

My only outrage is with the quality of tranny used in their ads......

ugly, flat chested, clearly a man, tiny junk....

i'd be ok with a beautiful, dd, 9" (cut) functional tranny hawking their shit -- just don't send out these fugly flat chested men........

Donk laugh off the drugs man and stop watching porn. It's trannies now and the next thing will be beastility with men.

Funny thing is Hersheys, Bud Light, and Nike are all overpriced garbage products to begin with.

Sketchers the only shoe I've bought last several years until the pair I bought last month.
Sketchers has an outlet store in Pigeon Forge where we would take a weekend trip at least 3 to 4 times a year.
The last pair I bought, was a few weeks ago and I ordered some Hey Dudes off Amazon.
I had never heard of them, but they say they are popular right now, they are very comfortable.

Black running shoes? Nah. Color in running shoes has nothing to do with queer, it has to do with some reflection to be seen at night to help avoid getting run over by a car. Always annoyed at runners at night wearing pitch black everything. Like, you're invisible azzhole.

I've been pretty loyal to New Balance because of the width options. I just can't squeeze into a pair of Nikes comfortably. I don't know what percent of the pop has widish feet, but it always seemed strange to me all the brands without options. I did get a pair of Whitin minimalist running shoes last year. They have a "wide toe box" and they are working out well.

Guy... you get WAY AHEAD of everything.... I'm in a god damn gym.... (no fukking cars in a gym) not everyone runs AT NIGHT. Fukking sun is bright as sh## til 8:30 PM. Jesus Christ do you have any friends??? Your posts are so weird at times. You have a 180 degree reverse on everything. Nobody can even have sensible conversation with you cuz you're on the planet Mars.

Been boycotting Nike for years now.

Nike shoes have nothing on New Balance shoes.

Spend $130 on a pair of New Balance running shoes and that will be the best investment for your feet that you ever did in your life time!

Never have like Nike, bought one pair when I was in Jr high school that was it for me.
