The Vulture has a post about racism being the new ‘cool’ thing to do. It mentions Huf’s new shoe by Adidas which he collaborated with Barry McGee (aka Twist). People are pretty passionate about the subject. Racism is dumb. Huf and Twist are not.

that’s pretty f’n stupid… people should concentrate on being better people themselves then bitching about some poorly designed shoe… this shoe DOES look pretty fugly…
i do know (twist) grew up in china town in sf….. even if he is of that decent does it make it right?… no.. regardless the shoe is busted
i think were in big trouble if this is all it takes for people to get bent out of shape and start claimin racism. if a half asian artist cant put a vintage caricature of a asian dude on a shoe without a shitstorm were all in trouble. ive seen worse shoes but this just reminds me that in a lot of ways racism is bigger than ever and stupidy is forever.
just watch crash. that movie is SO on point
its not really racist i think. its just a cartoon character. i mean i see how it could be offensive, but i dont think its a big deal.
That shit is wack…
Dam Stein, good comments. Its freakin’ shoe art. Who the hell cares what it looks like. Cartoons have crazy history with racist art and most times the culture of the time accepted it. We’ve got some crazy reality tv shows today compared to an ugly shoe. Actually I think its sorta sick, minus the HUF tag.
its a little fucking cartoon on a shoe. done by a half asian artist. people really need to stop walking on eggshells over this whole racism deal. yea its a serious issue, but god damn. its really not necessary to cry racism at the drop of an egg roll
ps…i like the shoe
