Get your senior executive mother fired from Nike for clout brehs

For those of you heavy into "collecting" and reselling sneakers, you probably came across this story over the weekend about the teenage reseller who charged six figures to his mother's credit card for his business.



People started digging into the story and some of the sales and finds were just too convenient to be a coincidence:

Sneaker Reseller Comes Up on 3 Pairs of Nike Air Mags in Storage Unit | Nice Kicks

The Mag sells for five figures on the after market.







A newspaper local to Portland did some digging and it was discovered that she's a 25 year employee of Nike and the GM of Nike North America which accounts for 41% of the company's yearly sales. She was forced to step down effective immediately after the story got too big to ignore




For those who aren't into shoes, the magnitude of this is pretty big. This is like the cartel selling to a dealer since they have direct ties to the product.

EDIT: Thread of the discord where he was selling company insider information.

 

Good. Her and her son deserve to be charged to the fullest extent of the law.

Both of them deserve to be locked up in a federal prison for at least 10 years.

 

Stupid muthafukka
fukk up an easy plug to greed crehs
Sneaker Culture died 2015

 

someone explain why this is illegal i dont get it , he used his moms discount to resell?

 

Typical cac coming up off of their parents pretending like they got it out the mud.

 

How much was he making? She already had a good job what was the point?

 

Bragging on the internet instead of shutting up and getting money....

Tale as old as time

 

• Nike is struggling with the optics of their product being unobtainable because of resellers. This is a big hit to the brand. Someone who's next in line to be CEO being tied to a reseller can't be spun in a positive manner.
• Nike employees do get fired for flipping product.

Based off of the credit card purchases, my guess is they were making it look like he was buying as a retailer to give legitimacy. Of course, the money charged is going to get paid back to her with interest.

 

Shut the fukk up


How did it die nikka?

 

The resell market is mostly fueled by the brands itself. Nike knew. A bunch of their product going to one location should have been suspect.

They fired her because it went public.

 

Looks like it's time to update my resume

 

Its like insider trading

 

What’s the upside to hiring a white woman?

 

Cacs gon Crime...
