Nike-Hero-To-Villian-Shirt-600-540x333.jpg


Long story short, I went to the World Basketball Festival a few weeks ago and saw these tees on several diff. people. Couldn't find my size in the city so I ordered one when I got home.

Does anyone know why it's "Villian"? I heard one plausible answer from a clerk @ NTNY but enh.

And no, it's not just mine.

Because Nike cares?

The closest thing I can see offhand is that it's more of an English spelling, which still doesn't make complete sense. I think they just screwed the pooch...royally.

Nike isn't spelling the words out on the shirts it's the unpaid broken english speakers that are putting the words on. If they misspell it oh well. Not gonna stop ppl from buying the shirt.
