I ceased using Nike back when they fellated Kaepernick. Hoka (except for "responsive" cushioning models) and New Balance "Fresh Foam" series are my preferences.

The federal agency that fights workplace bias is investigating Nike over its treatment of White employees, making good on the Trump administration pledge to crack down on diversity, equity and inclusion policies and make shielding White men from discrimination a priority.
The investigation is one of the first announced by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, which put out a call seeking discrimination complaints from White men in December.
The EEOC said Wednesday, Feb. 4 it filed an action in federal court in Missouri to compel Nike to produce information related to allegations that the company discriminated against White workers as part of its DEI program and the targets it set to increase the number of underrepresented workers in its ranks and leadership.
