The Adidas, the 8 worst-selling brand of sportswear, will also be "the old horse's hooves."

"As long as there are good-looking clothing styles, we can establish a foothold in the garment industry." This is obviously a wrong interpretation of the garment industry. It is difficult to control the garment industry with a fragrant and bright appearance. It is a bit careless. The safe and unharmful clothes and shoes in the week may cause public anger and even social resistance.

Adidas's "pedicure" shoes are a classic example. In addition, Nike, Umbro and other famous brands have also lost time.

Adidas JS Roundhouse Mid

Adidas Ankle Shoes Controversy

The original intention of Adidas' launch of JS Roundhouse Mid was to design a "super fired sneaker in the words of its own. Consumers wouldn't want to take it off and simply lock them on." However, this was counterproductive. "Foot shoes" caused public anger.

On the same day that Adidas launched the sneaker ad on Facebook on June 19, the U.S. civil rights organization protested. Huffington Post said: "For more than two hundred years, the U.S. constitution once considered blacks to be only three-fifths of people. Today, Adidas tries to represent this historical business that is humane and depraved. It was an offensive to the Afro-Americans and it was insensible." Later in the day, Adidas withdrew the sneaker advertisement and cancelled the release of the product.

Umbrella's "Zyklon" Sneakers

Umbro "Zyklon" Sneakers

After the Nazi gas chamber was permanently closed for several decades, in 1999 British sporting goods manufacturer Umbell Corps named the training shoe “Zyklon”, which again brought back memories of people’s misery. Of course, the reason why Yupbo chose “Zyklon” was to use its German meaning “whirlwind” instead of Zyklon B, a pesticide used by Nazi Germany as a deadly poison.

In a letter to Umbro, the Simon Wiesenthal Center's Simon Samuels stated: "The use of the genocide so shamelessly is an insult to the victims and survivors. Afterwards, Umbro recalled this sneaker.
