    Isn't Independant a skateboard company? They changed their terrible logo: https://shredder.news/independent-trucks-logo-change/

      Lmao, they probably just googled “independant [sic] logo” and were like “oh cool a cross!”

      Imo they're not beating the allegations by adding red and rounding out the logo...

          Nvm, I looked too hard at the logo and not the dates. A quick Google image shows differing uses of their brand name to create a logo tho and that's cool. They even have one where it's iron cross esq but has swirlies on the top and bottom instead, which I guess is a good nod without being tethered to such a problematic insignia. But yeah... The one they had used was definitely catering to a certain crowd wether or not they were aware of what they were doing...

          Like the old one on a white background looks like something a klansman would wear as a patch on their robe...

        Yeah but the article shows that they used the iron cross before changing it. Could be an older jacket but I don’t see anything online
