Good sports say no to sweat

Article Abstract:

A small U.S.-based clothing manufacturer has shaken up the intensely competitive sneaker market by outsourcing sneakers manufactured at an exploitation-free factory in Asia and wants to capture the imagination of consumers with a conscience. Shoe-makers are accused of outsourcing goods from factories around Asia that have abysmal working conditions, and this strategy by the manufacturer will appeal to youth born after the 1980s and may help in improving workers working conditions.
