Excuse me? I've literally just been posting facts. Verifiable data that anybody in a couple seconds can look up. I don't work for any of these companies I have no brand loyalty to any of these companies. The only problem I have with Nike is how terrible job they did with our uniforms back in the day. Regarding apparel I don't typically wear Nike nor any athletic apparel other than running shoes. The Sunshine pumping in this thread was just a little bit too much, I had to bring it back to reality. Nike isn't all that and it is in fact a struggling company that is losing market share to a bunch of competitors right now and it's getting it's **** kicked. I watched a video a couple weeks ago about how Nike is struggling I found it interesting and reading this thread definitely didn't match. 7 straight quarters of dropping sales. You can say that loud or you can say that quiet or you can say that with a smile or you can say that with a frown. Does not change the reality of what's happening with this company.
If it’s not important to the Miami apparel contract, don’t use its recovery as a positive in discussions is my point.
Nike is getting “decimated in the real performance running market”? So like elites/pros that aren’t paid? You can just watch diamond league and marathon majors to see that’s not true. There’s literally ZERO non-sponsored elites or even fringe-sponsored elites wearing Hoka’s super-spikes in Diamond League and ZERO non-sponsored elites fringe wearing Hokas in marathon majors. So unless they are getting paid real cash money, they are not wearing Hokas.
This.
Congratulations on being saved by sponsoring athletes. This hasn't seemed to help Nike in the last few years. We are talking about real world sales to customers not sponsored athletes.
Uh except it’s the exact opposite. If they’re not sponsored there’s a 95% chance they are wearing Dragonflys on the track. If there not sponsored in majors there’s an 85% chance they are wearing Nike or Adidas with a 10% chance they’re wearing ASICS. And after that it’s going to be On, Puma, or New Balance

Again we are taking here about consumers and sales. According to this logic everything is fine at Nike and there's no problems. So why are they not selling shoes as quickly as their competitors and have seven consecutive negative sales quarters? The argument isn't nobody is wearing Nike, as it's absurd. They are losing market share. I know nothing about track athletes nor what they are wearing. Perhaps Nike is doing well in that category.
Your entire argument (not even sure what you are trying to say anymore) seems to rely on the idea that because brands like Hoka and OnCloud have more sales, they are a better product.
I really want to know who has continually greenlit the scrunch for the armholes, looks cheap
Nope not at all. I know for sure Nike makes or has made excellent products that I've used. Also I don't like On Cloud shoes, that's just my opinion. The data says that company is killing it.
I see absolutely no proof except some strange brand loyalty. Meanwhile I've posted data again and again and again and again and again and again showing Nike is getting hammered. How many more times do you need to see the data?
