i cannot believe they fucking tagged her in the post lmao i’m willing to bet no one even knew what boot company she used until they posted that
RIGHT like it blows my mind, literally any skating fan could tell you that at elite levels, even the highest-profile boot brands like edea and jackson suffer wear and tear and even just fluke problems. especially with the intense stress they’re likely to have been putting them through at the olympics. literally my only thought was “what bad luck for karen” and nothing about the boot company, which she has praised in her autobiography.
most fans probably had no clue what boots she wears. other people “in the know” enough to recognize her supplier probably already wear their own brand or have their own experiences/opinions already formed. but whatever reflection karen left on her boots by making an instagram post in the heat of high stress (which i hold was still absolutely nothing negative, not to mention she's an extremely shy teenager with no media training, one who’s notorious both for boot issues bc of her feet and for her nerves/inconsistency) has been completely overridden by the pure unprofessionalism in that post. it was made by an adult, a business owner, with the clear intent of hurting and humiliating a literal teenager. a TEENAGER.
will marrillo and anyone defending him and avanta boots after this should be fucking ashamed and i absolutely hope they lose business.
