damn. not really surprising though. i'm sure nike will pay them off 'cause that's the way it's done : \

Both suck, yes.
I bet Nike knew nothing about the rip though.
Just some designer in some agency somewhere who right now is shitting him/her self.
Clear your desk out dude. :)

"Nike is a giant corporation which is attempting to manipulate the alternative skate culture to create an even wider demand for their already ubiquitous brand. Nike represents just about the antithesis of what Dischord stands for and it makes me sick to my stomach to think they are using this explicit imagery to fool kids into thinking that the general ethos of this label, and Minor Threat in particular, can somehow be linked to Nike's mission. It's disgusting."

That Minor Threat cover is iconic. It's like someone doing a satire on the I love NY logo or something. It's meant to be obvious, clearly not a rip.

I don't see why people should 'get over it'
minor threat and dischord stand against everything nike represent
their 'appropriation' is just plain wrong
