About:
Adidas and Pharrell faced backlash for their 2018 "Hu Holi" collection, inspired by the Hindu Holi festival. Critics deemed it culturally insensitive, and the line was eventually withdrawn.
Artist Tom Sachs' Nike collaboration, the General Purpose Shoe, was popular but was halted due to allegations of a toxic workplace in Sachs' studio.
Katy Perry caused controversy with her "Roo Face" slip-on loafers, which were accused of resembling blackface caricatures. The shoes were quickly pulled from the market.
CZcamsr Omar, aka Omi in a Hellcat, was sued by Nike for trademark infringement over his sneaker brand, Reloaded. A court ruled in favor of Nike, resulting in $8M damages.
Nike sued Bape over design infringement, leading to Bape discontinuing or modifying five of their shoe designs.
The collaboration between Yeezy and Adidas ended after Kanye West's dissatisfaction with the partnership, which was heightened after working with 3D printing footwear company Zellerfeld.
The tragedy of the Heaven's Gate cult, all wearing Nike's Decade sneakers, led to the model's discontinuation. The shoes are now a collector's item due to their association with the event.

[@Noseir123]

Should've added Jeremy Scott's 'Shackles'

[@SouthJerseyBaitReviews]

ehh not really that controversial if u knew what the original character it was based on. Just people who were ignorant to it started spreading false rumors about what it meant.

[@Noseir123]

@@SouthJerseyBaitReviews true, and the same people who claimed it to be controversial are just like the people who thought Pokemon was a devilish TV show. which were the pastors, the teachers, the parents, the news reporters... and basically everyone in between who didn't have any context and jumped to conclusions in the 90's

[@Noseir123]

@@SouthJerseyBaitReviews yeah i agree that's why it was controversial in the first place.

I might just be ignorant so someone please fill me in, but I don't see that much of an issue with Pharallels collab. Please correct me if I'm wrong

[@marcop.525]

2:07 How did you completely forgot about the Tom Sachs 3.0? In fact SNKRS APP even made a contest to vote to became the 3.0 tester, you had to upload a video proving the reasons why you wanted to be one of the first ones to try it and after youvhad to make daily report videos about how did you wear them. Is this story completely been banned to the shadow realm or did someone still remembers that?

[@vhacker71]

I live 2 miles away from the heavens gate cult. Needless to say it was in the local media for a long time. ☹️

It was probably only white people who got angry about the Holi collection. I bet Indian people were stoked.

[@kdotroy1]

One thing ive learned aa a british born hindu. Dont piss off the hindus, theres some militants over and in america. 😆 not going to lie, I really wanted a pair of the holi pharrell colabs. But I can see why they saw it as culture appropriation and deemed it to stop. It's not adidas's festival, culture, religion to financially exploit. What would've made it better if, they made the effect during the holi festival, and then sold a cheaper pair to indians but dirt cheap with the same effect. Probably would've got marketed better and gave some indians some exclusive products this meaning they would've felt incorporated into the design and gave it the hindu thumb of approval. 😆
