These Addidas trainers are pure ridiculous, but are they in any way offensive to black people?
In fact they are so 'way out' that I would not be surprised at them catching on amongst the young.
Some have said that they are reminiscent of the days of slavery, but then that could be said when prisoners in America are shackled around the feet and hands.
But Addidas are not alone, Nike has also provoked outrage by launching a new Black and Tan line of trainers for St Patrick's Day.
Are these trainer manufacturers purposely creating outrage, or are some people being over sensitive?

No not offensive at all. As rojash said they are chains which shackle your ankles to your trainers not your feet together- so there is no link to imprisonment or slavery whatsoever, anyone seeing that has their own weird agenda.
As an Irishman the black and tans offend me massively as a group- but not as a pair of trainers- if you don't like something don't buy it, it's very simple, and all a big fuss over nothing.
