  • Choosing Shoes
    Choosing Shoes With each step you take, the shoes you wear impact the joints and muscles of your feet, ankles, knees, hips, and spine. Pain and injury can be avoided by wearing the proper shoe for your body and foot type, especially when you participate in play and athletic activities. Your doctor or physical therapist will watch the way you walk to identify your body and foot type. The alignment of your foot while standing, walking or running may be described as “neutral”, “flat” or “rigid”. Neutral (“normal”) means that the inside border of your foot curves slightly off the floor when standing, creating a visible arch. When walking, your heel strikes the ground first, followed by the middle section of your foot, and finally pushing off with all of your toes. Flat means that the inside border of your foot nearly or completely touches the floor when standing. When walking your foot is too flexible. You push off from the inside border of your foot and big toe. This is also called “overpronation”. Rigid means that your weight is on the outside border of your foot when standing and walking. When you walk your foot is not flexible enough to provide shock absorption. This is also called “supination”. Choosing the proper shoe for your foot type will keep your foot and body better supported when walking and playing. If you have an injury or pain, it is vital you wear proper footwear during your athletic activities (including PE class and physical therapy sessions). It is best if you wear good shoes all day long! Specialty athletic/running shoe stores will be best equipped to help you find the right shoes for your foot type (try A Snail’s Pace or Road Runner Sports).

  • Taking a Closer Look at the Moral Fabric of Athletic Footwear an INDUSTRY ANALYSIS
    Taking a Closer Look at the Moral Fabric of Athletic Footwear AN INDUSTRY ANALYSIS © 2020 Center for a Humane Economy. All Rights Reserved. SUMMARY Signicant developments in plant-based fabrics, plastics, and other synthetic products have spurred a sharp reduction in the amount of leather in footwear in the last decade, particularly in athletic shoes. The total number of shoes containing leather has declined by tens of millions in recent years. When you hear the name Stella McCartney, you might initially think of a high-end fashion show with models striding down the runway, cameras clicking, from New York to Paris to Milan. McCartney is also known for items suited to a dierent kind of runway — the track and eld kind. Her latest collection of shoes and athletic wear for adidas launched in March 2009, marking over a decade of collaboration between the fashion icon and the tness powerhouse. McCartney’s athletic wear line does not just strive for good-looking apparel. It’s also animal-friendly. Her line shuns leather, fur, feathers, wool, or other animal products. The McCartney brand equals cruelty-free. Adding to the sustainability credentials of these products, about 70 % of the fabrics McCartney uses come from recycled materials. Last year adidas released a cruelty-free shoe assembled with heat rather than glue that also addresses the international disposal of millions of pairs headed for landlls. According to Eric Leidtke, adidas’ executive board member responsible for global brands, “Futurecraft Loop is [the] rst running shoe that is made to be remade.” The key to its recyclability is the shoe’s design, which utilizes only a single ingredient – thermoplastic polyurethane – rather than the typical 12-15 materials which make recycling so dicult.

  • Nike Versus New Balance: Trade Policy in a World of Global Value Chains
    Volume 12 Issue 4 December 2014 Nike versus New Balance: Trade Policy in a World of Global Value Chains Case prepared by Simon BRODEUR1 and Professor Ari VAN ASSCHE2 United States Trade Representative (USTR) Michael Froman closed the door of his new office, walked to his window, and admired the glimmering Washington D.C. skyline. During his illustrious career as a government official, Froman had never wielded such power as he did now: he had just been nominated by President Obama to be the 11th USTR, serving as the president’s principal advisor, negotiator, and spokesperson on matters pertaining to international trade and investment. One of his main responsibilities would be to complete negotiations on the Trans- Pacific Partnership (TPP), an Asian-Pacific trading bloc built upon the pre-existing Trans-Pacific Strategic Economic Partnership Agreement between Brunei, Chile, New Zealand, and Singapore. As of 2013, numerous nations had participated in the TPP negotiations, namely the United States, Australia, Brunei, Canada, Chile, Japan, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, Peru, Singapore and Vietnam (Exhibit 1). The TPP was the most promising trade liberalization initiative since the Doha round of world trade talks, which stalled in 2008, and would cover approximately 40% of the world’s GDP.3 The multilateral talks could potentially deliver huge benefits for the U.S. economy, as the TPP would provide American companies with unprecedented market access to key players in the Asia- Pacific, the largest and fastest growing region in the world.4 Furthermore, it would allow consumers and importers to enjoy wider and cheaper access to the goods and services of TPP countries.

  • UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT DISTRICT of MASSACHUSETTS NEW BALANCE ATHLETICS, INC., Plaintiff, V. MICHAEL KORS (USA) INC., Defen
    Case 1:21-cv-11305-NMG Document 1 Filed 08/11/21 Page 1 of 26 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT DISTRICT OF MASSACHUSETTS NEW BALANCE ATHLETICS, INC., Plaintiff, v. C.A. No. 21-cv-11305 MICHAEL KORS (USA) INC., JURY TRIAL DEMANDED Defendant. COMPLAINT 1. This is a trademark infringement case. Plaintiff New Balance Athletics, Inc. (“New Balance”) is a global footwear and apparel company. Defendant Michael Kors (USA) Inc. (“Michael Kors” or “Defendant”) is a global footwear and apparel company. 2. As described more fully below, New Balance has exclusively used the letter N as a trademark on footwear since the 1970s. New Balance has sold hundreds of millions of pairs of shoes bearing N Marks worldwide, which represent many billions of dollars in sales. It owns several federally registered and incontestable trademark registrations for the letter N on footwear and has strong common law and international rights in the same. The marks are famous and embody an enormous amount of goodwill—they are among the company’s most valuable assets. 3. N Marks appear on a wide range of New Balance footwear, from performance footwear to lifestyle footwear. For example: Case 1:21-cv-11305-NMG Document 1 Filed 08/11/21 Page 2 of 26 4. Defendant recently began using an N design on footwear that is virtually identical and confusingly similar to the New Balance N Marks: 5. Defendant’s use of a letter N on footwear: (i) is likely to cause confusion among consumers and/or suggest an affiliation, connection, or association between New Balance and Defendant; (ii) constitutes false designation of origin; and (iii) dilutes the distinctive quality of New Balance’s famous N Marks.

  • Creative Brief Nike Air Force 1S
    Creative Brief Nike Air Force 1s Connor Carpani and Monique Ware Executive Summary: Nike is a household name in the world of sporting goods. Their products include athletic shoes, fashion shoes, apparel, and sports equipment (“Nike, Inc.,” 2014). Nike has a far reach, having stores in many countries worldwide. Their top competitors are Adidas, New Balance and Puma (“Hoovers,” 2014). While the Nike Air Force 1 has endured considerable commercial success, showing how Nike evolved as a brand proved to be important. Each prominent athletic shoe company has launched a popular sneaker model (“Hoovers,” 2014). The difference between these companies and Nike is that Nike outperformed its competitors with regards to marketing. In researching Air Force 1 and Nike as a whole, it became evident that Nike had been the pioneer in many different advertising segments. The data keenly expressed how Nike initiated trends in the past using athletes to advance their brand and how they intend to stay ahead of competitors in the future through modern environmental practices (“Nike, Inc.,” 2014).

  • Skin in the Game an Investigation Into the Illegal Trade of Kangaroo Parts in California
    SKIN IN THE GAME AN INVESTIGATION INTO THE ILLEGAL TRADE OF KANGAROO PARTS IN CALIFORNIA Published by the Center for a Humane Economy © 2020 The Center for a Humane Economy | Version 2.4 Table of Contents “Part of the reason you see companies use the phrase “k-leather” is that they don’t like advertising the fact that kangaroo leather comes from the hide of a kangaroo. The use of kangaroo leather is very controversial, with the sale of kangaroo leather products being banned in California, so the abbreviation helps hide the cleat’s contentious origins.” The18.com Looking At Different Cleat Materials: Which Ones Are Popular And Who Wears What? For context 3 Executive summary 4 Introduction 8 California’s ban on kangaroo products 9 Manufacturers of kangaroo leather soccer shoes 12 Retailers of kangaroo leather soccer shoes 18 E-commerce websites selling kangaroo leather soccer shoes 32 Discussion 40 Conclusion 43 More on the commercial kangaroo industry in Australia 46 2 © 2020 The Center for a Humane Economy SKIN IN THE GAME AN INVESTIGATION INTO THE ILLEGAL TRADE OF KANGAROO PARTS IN CALIFORNIA For context Commercial shooters kill some two million wild kangaroos a year in their native Australian habitat to profit from the trade in their skins, a toll that includes 400,000 joeys bludgeoned to death or left behind to starve after their mothers are slain. Recognizing the inhumanity of the industry, California’s legislature re-imposed a ban on the sale of kangaroo products in 2016. An investigation by the Center for a Humane Economy found that enforcement of the ban has been non-existent, and kangaroo skin soccer shoes from Nike, adidas, Puma and six other major manufacturers remain available at sporting goods and specialty soccer stores throughout the state.

  • New Balance Athletic Shoe, Inc
    New Balance Athletic Shoe, Inc. Case Writeup Individual Case #1 The George Washington University Executive MBA Program EMBA 220: Operations Management Professor Sanjay Jain, Ph.D. February 6, 2010 Robert Paul Ellentuck 1 2 COPYRIGHT © 2010 ROBERT PAUL ELLENTUCK 3 Did New Balance Need To Consider Making Its Own Acquisitions? If New Balance were to make its own acquisitions, it would distract from its own operational problems, and lose the advantage with retailers that the Addidas-Reebok acquisition had given it - especially the unique sales relationships with retailers that it had created.i New Balance was undergoing operational problems in 2005, mostly because of operational issues.ii "We had a lot of quality problems, late deliveries, and late samples, which inhibited the effectiveness of our salespeople."iii An acquisition when there were already so many problems in its core operational areas would be a mistake for the company. The "Addidas-Reebok transaction would be felt most by retailers, a fact that that would help New Balance."iv "Before this deal, the industry had one 800-pound gorilla (Nike); now there are two. Those big guys tend to dictate a little bit, but they don't move as quickly as a smaller company, and they don't really establish the partnerships that we (New Balance) do.
