BOO HISS to Converse/Nike!!

The mere fact that they're using the correct date/color combinations (since they're not using names) means that they know exactly who their target customers are going to be. They should at least give a portion of the money made to the NPHC organizations. They should realize that by doing the right thing, it would benefit them greatly (i.e. positive reputation). I don't like when companies try to do shady things in the name of making a profit.
