Nobody forced him to purchase garments emblazoned with a corporate logo. He made a conscious choice with his money to become a walking billboard. While the abundance of subversive marketing and branding these days is dismaying, I see no merit to this particular argument

It would be hilarious if thousands of people started invoicing Adidas - I feel a flashmob coming on... ;-)

we might as well brand our heads for these businesses...it's true, those who wear branded garments are walking billboards and they are not aesthetically pleasing anyway...i just don't understand why we are slaves wearing slave made clothing?

why are you so dumb? Of course you won't get any money from small stores in the city. If you are actually taking this seriously (which you clearly are not) you would go to the head office, but you won't to that because you ar afraiid of betting beaten up.

so what happens now? will you be farther pushing your case into the courts? and if you want money wouldnt you have to be elected as a represenative? and if you have been wearing them for 20 years why take action now? why not just boycott?

Okay, why did security say he couldn't film in the shop? What are they so afraid of that they have to keep cameras out of their shop?
