Nike's Racist Shoes

Yeah, but will they finally stop marketing the extra-large athletic supporters to white guys? Market Watch:

Nike unveiled Tuesday what it said is the first shoe designed specifically for American Indians, an effort aiming at promoting physical fitness in a population with high obesity rates....It will be distributed solely to American Indians...Nike said it is the first time it has designed a shoe for a specific race or ethnicity...
It would kind of be nice if I could get my feet in to a pair of these. I have a pretty big foot. But I guess I'm not the right race, so I'm out of luck.

Hat tip: Bill Dauterieve who quips "different bones".
