Off Topic Trainers.

[Tel (they/them)]

Here's my take on these 'fakes'. The ones I've ordered before are as good as the originals, and as I've already noted, it's probably because they are made in the same factories. So, what's the ethical take on this ? Some people will say buying fakes is unethical, personally if Nike are paying people peanuts to make shoes for them in China, Indonesia etc that cost £3 to make and then Nike sell them for £120, then I don't have a problem if those same guys then make a few more on the side and sell them on to me for £20 and make £17 for themselves.

What I do have a problem with, is people who buy fakes and then try to sell them on as orginals for £120.

Boring post that mate.

Well I'd rather pay a nigga in Indo £20 that he can pocket, than line the bulging bank account of some Nike exec who's getting rich off my homeboy paying him $1 a day to make his shoes.

I don’t know what’s worse, the fact that those things used to actually be a thing, or the fact that some sick puppy decided they fancied owning one for their own personal pleasure

Don't do either mate, avoid all Nike, real or fake, like the plague.

Win!
