Am I the only person that finds it odd that Converse shoe company is selling their (RED) line mudcloth shoe for $300? What is even more disturbing is that only 10% of the net wholesale price will be donated to The Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis, and Malaria. So the obvious first question is, where is the other 90% of the net price going to. If people are supposed to be encouraged to buy this product for charity can we please get a better break down of where the money is going to. Basically, Converse is asking people to buy $300 shoes so that they will donate $20 to a worthy cause. I am sure the management at Converse can find more efficient ways to support the world's less fortunate.
