In 2000, the sports industry has grown so rapidly in line with the development of the music arena. Adjustment is the key product of the leading brands of life in California, which at that time a number of teen-punk pop band from San Diego up to Orange County topped the Billboard charts.

Companies that distribute products such as hats, shirts, shoes, guitars, etc., have benefited from the fame musicians – which is very popular with the youth – this. Tom DeLonge – lead singer and guitarist for the band Blink-182 – along with colleagues felt disappointed with the media hype and a poor understanding of the design teams that make products for them.

DeLonge likes the message behind the story Macbeth literature, which reminds us not to be greedy because that is what will lead us toward the abyss of adversity. Coat Macbeth is described as “The Notch”, ie, a banner or flag which has a V-shaped indentation on the end. More specifically, the symbol is a form of two blocks which are generally seen on the side of the shoe and describe the flag flying. It would seem obvious if we hold the shoe vertically.
