At least nike N7 products go towards helping Native Americans and we all know how great livestrong has been even if you don't like the man that inspired it.
I'm disappointed Nike isn't putting more a social idea behind these products.
I see your point and i have to agree..they even got the Nike "Red" laces to raise awareness about HIV in Africa. And the "think Pink" for awareness and the fight against breast cancer..all are VERY good causes.But they can sell the BHM versions of whomever´s shoe and raise awareness and put money into the black community..maybe a scholarship fund of some sort.
Maybe have the players autogragh a couple of pair and auction them off and donate the money to some sort of black organization to help the community or something.It wouldn't hurt any..cuz i would easily cop the BHM KD3´s, Kobe´s,J´s or whatever without hesitation.
