I'm trying to find decent sneakers that would last at least 3 years, preferably more, but that are not genocidal brands. It would be awesome if they didn't support slave labor and animal cruelty as well.
Internet doesn't provide help. https://huffsports.com/which-sports-brands-support-palestine/ Adidas? Nike? Puma?! Aren't those brands which actually support State of occupated Palestine called Israel?
Edit: Checked out some ethical sustainable brands in EU. Expensive, so I'll see if I want to spend that amount of money on sneakers, but, having Miret/Earthbound ones I bought on a really good discount, seems that's a good long-term sustainable eco ethical investment.
Yeah i saw this website too, the first giveaway that it was
shit was using the blue jumpsuit photo, stating the headquarters were in "Xingjiang" when it's actually in Jinjiang, and misspelling of Xinjiang.
You should always be looking at these websites with a critical eye. There's not a single citation, multiple errors. If, on the rare occasion that it is sourced, follow the sources and see where the claims are coming from.
In my defense, I was at work and did a quick search of the brand. 😅
I saw someone commented with some extra info on Uyghurs, China and other side of the story, so I will check it out.
