Huh. Apparently you can now customize your own shoes at Nike’s website. Someone took them at their word and requested the word “sweatshop” emblazoned on their shoe to “remember the toil and labor of the children that made my shoes.” Nike didn’t see the humor. Now they’re having a hard time trying to defend their decision.
Important Note
This site features content going all the way back to 2000. The posts you’ll read reflect my views and writing style at the time. While I have gone back to clean up a few of them, I think it’s important not to sanitise too much. This site is a record of who I am and how I’ve grown. Any blog post written years ago may not reflect who I am today, nor how I would write about the same topic today.
