Nike Sports Shoes With The Theme Of The US Flag Will Be Questioned.

According to a number of foreign media reports, the US sports giant Nike is recalling a sports shoe with the American flag as its theme. The design of the shoe is the American flag at the end of the eighteenth Century. It may lead to unnecessary disputes over social problems such as war, race and so on.

According to Sneakernews.com, the shoes were originally on sale on Monday, priced at $140. The website also released a picture of this shoe (figure above). The shoe pattern is a version of the American flag. 13 stars make up a circle and 13 stripes. According to the Smithson Institute, the United States used this version of the national flag between 1777 and 1795.

It is unclear whether these shoes are sold. In a statement to CNN Business, Nike said: "Nike will cancel the July 4th Air Max 1 Quick Strike release."

The Wall Street Journal reported earlier that Nike had delivered some sports shoes to some retailers, but after receiving complaints from Colin. NFL, a former star of the American Football League (NFL), the company asked retailers to return the sneakers to Nike headquarters.

It is reported that a series of shoes have been shipped to retailers, and then received Nike's return request, but did not explain the reasons. At present, Nike official website and App did not appear this kind of shoes.

As early as 2014, Nike took advantage of the eve of Independence Day in July 4th, and added a new color matching design "Fourth of July" to its Solo Slide. It was popular at that time by adding an American flag pattern on the vamp.

Last year, Nike announced that Colin Capenik would be one of the spokesmen for the campaign's 30th anniversary campaign to promote the "Just Do It" slogan.

Colin Capenik did not stand and watch the American flag rising in September 2016 when he played the national anthem. The reason is to protest against the US police brutality and other racial injustice towards African Americans.

The news soon aroused the concern and discussion of us netizens. Some protesters set off a demonstration on the social platform to burn Nike. Then the school elder sister looked at the American netizens' fancy Nike for a few days.

President Trump also responded with strong dissatisfaction. On twitter, he satirize Colin Kaepernick's disregard of the flag and accuses Nike of failing because of the anger of the people.

As a result, Nike's commercials received more than 80 million hits on twitter, Instagram and YouTube.

Nike's share price also hit the highest point in history of $85. CEO Mark Parker once said, "we are proud of what we have done."
