I was talking about the copy shirts, not the original ones. Now look in the mirror and say it loud, I'm living in cuckoo land. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nike_sweatshops Nike, Inc. has been using sweatshops and worker abuse to produce footwear and apparel in East Asia. After rising prices and the increasing cost of labor in Korean and Taiwanese factories, Nike began contracting in countries elsewhere in Asia, which includes parts of India, Pakistan, and Indonesia.[1][2] It sub-contracted factories without reviewing the conditions, based on the lowest bid. Nike's usage of sweatshops originates to the 1970s. However, it was not until 1991, when a report by Jeff Ballinger was published detailing their insufficient payment of workers and the poor conditions in their Indonesian factories, that these sweatshops came under the media and human rights scrutiny that continues to today.[3] https://ww.fashionnetwork.com/news/Italy-cracks-down-on-sweatshops-feeding-loro-piana-armani-dior,1749702.html Italy cracks down on sweatshops feeding Loro Piana, Armani, Diorhttps://www.theguardian.com/sport/2012/apr/14/olympics-adidas-clothing-sweatshops Olympics sportswear by Adidas made in 'sweatshop' conditions – reportsThis article is more than 14 years old Claims of 65-hour working week and pay as little as 34 pence per hour in factories subcontracted to produce kit for the Games
