blackSpot Sneakers are truly a briliant idea. Adbuster magazine is poking fun at/harassing Nike's Phil Knight by making a canvas sneaker in a "clean factory" in China. With a target of 4.000 pre-orders and a slew of indie stores selling them they hope to show Nike that you really CAN make a shoe profitably and in a Fair Trade environment. Pretty cool. At only $40 a pair I think it's an absolutely great idea.
