Contracts generally state that Nike is not liable for injuries suffered by athletes wearing its products. The contracts also require every player to wear the company’s shoes unless a medical condition makes Nike footwear unsuitable. A player might, as stipulated in Nike’s deal with the University of Michigan, be required to make himself available for examination by Nike or a local podiatrist before using a shoe made by another company.
I’ve seen a few sneaker expert vids on YT. They all say this is a s**tty f**king shoe design. Zion should sue the ever-living s**t out of them. Maybe he’s not an Oregon booster… 😛
