nike sweatshops: behind the swoosh.

so, you think by having nike sb shoes on will make you skate like p-rod or koston or malto, huh? think again! watch this documentary and comprehend. don't let multi-national corporation sporting goods companies infiltrate skateboarding! thanks!

nike sweatshops: behind the swoosh is the ultimate video for exploring the sweatshop issue. using nike as a case study, the film documents first hand the widespread and oppressive and exploitative labour practices in the developing world.

used as a resource by faculty members and community leaders across the country, behind the swoosh is appropriate for use in classrooms, libraries, conferences, community centres and union halls.

p.s. what has this got to do with skateboarding, you ask? everything!

sometimes it's necessary to be abrupt and get to the point. that's exactly what we did from day one, so here's a redux of iron column's very first shirt in a new colourway and with a new logo back print. whether you're out thrashing or just walking down the street, people will know where you stand... and for those sitting on the fence, be careful not to get splinters up your arse.


check out iron column skateboards.

peace.

why do you still skate nike? ian mackaye and dischord records were too lenient on just accepting an apology from them and not suing their asses off! and eric koston's on nike sb's team! fuck this shit! what's this culture coming to? selling out or buying in? you decide.

just don't do it! boycott nike!

peace.
