Nike has been denounced for selling a balaclava that looks "menacing," and which critics say could incite gang violence. In one image posted widely on social media, a black model wears the balaclava, which covers his head and lower part of his face and extends to his chest. There are also straps worn on the chest that some on social media likened to a holster.
