surely only a nazi would design a symbol like that

and those colors are very Ukrainian nationalism-coded lmao

btw this is one of those bullshit brands that only has one product and only exists as an Amazon seller

Honestly its really hard to make rotationaly symmetric symbols without accidentally resembling a swastika or sonnenrad. It gets the benefit of the doubt from me.

I think the trick is to use more rounded and curved shapes instead of hard angles

for example, I wouldn't tend to think "fascism" when looking at a traditional triskele

but contrast that with the nazi versions of the triskele: (CW for nazi hate symbols)

actually that 2nd one is pretty similar to the shoe logo, hmmm

Ahhh, the ancient triskele is one of my favorite symbols. The trick is definitely curves and swirls
