Nike outspent its German counterpart by channeling its budget heavily into linear TV


Adidas leveraged its official status—kitting out 14 national teams and achieving a 58% share of team jersey sales compared to Nike's 36%.

I mean didn't that poster say Nike spent more on Ads? How does this negate that? Obviously it makes sense given Adidas was official sponsor. The funny thing though is if Nike had been the official sponsor and Adidas had to do the ad spend, you 100% would be using that as a marketr of how Nike has overtaken Adidas in Futbol too lol. You know kinda like how you said Nike took over the German kit sponsorship... Even though they spent 2x what Adidas offered apparently.

Adidas achieved 58% share of team jersey sales vs Nikes 36%.... But in an earlier comment you said Adidas had like 25% sponsorship of teams in the tourney, similar to Nike? So this means they straight up outperformed in sales?

He also said that the #1 ovearall jersey sold was Messi's (adidas) and the #1 team jersey sold was Mexico's (adidas).

So...it would appear that BOTH Nike AND adidas outsold (in dollars and percentages) their percentage shares of teams. Which goes to show, most of the BEST AND MOST POPULAR teams were aligned with either Nike or adidas.

What is striking is that Nike and adidas (if the numbers are correct) accounted for 94% of all sales. Meaning that ALL OTHER KIT-MAKERS (including Puma) only had 6% combined of all sales.

Again, as I've said...for MIAMI'S PURPOSES, this is a duopoly. Two candidates. Nike and adidas are the only brands that matter.

10/10/2025 from me:

4. Nike lost its way under its predecessor. He was more tech v. understanding Nike’s DNA, putting sports 1st. Nike is back to putting its athletes & sports, first. Part of the reason Nike was OK w substituting UTenn for USCe was its relationship w A’Ja. It was to help grow her brand while taking care of her alma mater. Nike is no longer sitting; they r now being extremely aggressive in the NIL arena, locking down top players at the AAU circuit & kids playing at Nike branded schools at the CFB & CBB level.

Again, I’ll be branded as the bad guy & zealot 24/7 if it means providing accurate info to the peanut gallery. Oh & I said something about Nike trying to reclaim lost Asian territory:



 
Not a good week for Nike. Spending a fortune at the World Cup, losing the sales battle to Adidas and it's a full 3 stripes final. But at least they get the 3rd place game!!! Look at the bright side!!

Commence with the propaganda to defeat scary facts and data.

How are those "facts and data" scary in any way?

You claim that you don't care that much, but you keep posting these strangely celebratory musings. And that's your right, but still...

Good for adidas. The company that has supported and focused on international soccer for a century, and was the official sponsor of the World Cup...had the most sales. Yay.

I hope it's been obvious I've been trolling you guys for the last 2 weeks? It's not that serious.

Like I said many times before, I find the whole Nike fanclub thing strange. But hey people are allowed to enjoy what they want.

The fact Nike flipped Chris Henry Jr from Adidas is quite the unexpected…or was it?

But it’s waaaaaaaay more than this.

Nike signed a gang of Bama, Clemson, O$U, USC, Auburn, Oregon, Texas, & USCe student athletes.

Nike finally joining the HS NIL party
Click to expand...

They were the first, Cuddy. They just wasn’t doing football until kids got to their branded colleges. They were doing soccer & volleyball female athletes, & b-ball guys welllllll b4 Adidas. Adidas was the first to start doing football, however, which is y I been banging on them b/c most of their football NIL guys were going to Nike schools. But there’s a reason UTenn & PSU is getting more guys this cycle b/c they’ve finally caught on that it’s more productive to have NIL guys go to their schools.

I just feel they wasted valuable resources on two programs trending downward which I predicted UTenn would do last season.
