The unlikely trio of adidas, Nike and Under Armour shared a platform this past week to help promote diversity within the footwear design industry. At a class hosted by the Pensole Footwear Design Academy in association with BMe Community, a support network for black men and others committed to community improvement, 19 students were tutored thanks to sponsorship from the three iconic sportswear brands.
