Nike's Phone # and the Betsy Ross Shoe
Jul 2, 2019, 12:46 PM
|
|
Nike's phone # is 503-671-6453. The current wait time is 45 minutes. The lady I spoke with said the phones are blowing up.
I've never been more disgusted with a company than I am right now. I stopped wearing their gear a while back and wish the Universities would do the same, but we all know the power of the $$$$$.

Sadly, she tore her Achilles in her second season fighting off the owner of the Clippers.

I'm sure they appreciate the attention and free

publicity you're giving them. One day people will understand that every time Nike has some sort of controversy they come back stronger and make more money.

All the pub in the world doesn't matter if no one buys their shoes. Unfortunately people's morals and resolve tend to fade when they really want something. I've noticed the older I get the less I care about material things like that so not buying Nike isn't a thing to me. Good luck in stopping the younger generation though. What gets my goat is they allow Kaepernick to ruin a multi-million dollar campaign because he has no education when it comes to history. Want to know how our university education is failing us, just listen to people like Kaepernick talk when facts and common sense fly right out the window. I wish we could make a difference with things like this.

I dont think people have bad morals that buy their shoes. I will buy Nike if I like them. I love the USA too. I couldn't care less about them not making that shoe.

Just because someone doesn’t get triggered

by this decision like you do, doesn’t mean they don’t support the flag. It may just mean that they don’t really care what one apparel company does with one shoe.

not respect the flag because he didn’t get triggered by the Nike move. Just because someone is not outraged by the move doesn’t mean they don’t respect the flag. Learn to read. I can respect the flag and also not care what marketing decisions an apparel company makes. They don’t go hand in hand.

I always wonder how many in the crowd upset over the disrespect of the American flag are supporters of the Confederate flag? A guy taking a knee or a company not putting a flag on a shoe=outrage and disrespect to America. However, flying a flag that represented a side at war against America=heritage!

You are a sad excuse to be called an American if you can’t respect and PROTECT our flag.......my uncle and thousands of other Americans died fighting for our freedom so that we can have the greatest FREE country in the world and all these people want to do is whine and complain about how bad America is now.......you should get down on your knees and thank the good Lord above because you are privileged to live in this great country.......well I have one suggestion if you are not happy here......MOVE.....or SHUT Up.......Go Tigers!!!!!

It is weird how the people who typically are very much for respecting the US flag also are fans of the confederate flag.

Uh - sorry GWP, but it sounds like you do not watch their stock price very much. I sold my Nike stock when they first puked, and have no plans to buy it again. I like their shoes, and still wear mine, but I won't replace with Nike. I regret that I have but one vote to give to my country.

The current wait time is now greater than 45 minutes. Just ordered 1000 pair of Betsy Ross’s as a retirement fund investment. Sure to be in short supply. GUTLESS!! Have always hated them and hate even more Clemson’s affiliation. GO TIGERS!

If you waited 45 minutes on hold to complain

about something a shoe company did or did not do then you have way too much time on your hands and you've allowed political entertainment to permeate way too may areas of your life. Back away from the innernets, go for a walk, play with your dog, or somesuch.

You really took the time out of your day to complain to company that you're no longer a customer of, about something that has absolutely no affect on yourself?

Why when people say "they are done with x*x period ! " don't they just use the (.) ? I mean , it's a real time saver and it's kind of right on .

if you weren't going to buy something, why should you get so upset about it that you waste 45 minutes of your life to say you're mad that they aren't selling it after all?

It wasn’t the child slave exploitation that bothered y’all.
It was them making a marketing decision that got your emotions all worked up.

Really, you're upset because a company won't place the American flag on footwear?
The American Flag, of any generation does not belong on footwear. Great American's died for that flag, particularly the Betsy Ross flag. And some want to honor them by putting it on a shoe?
