Nike has fallen off big time, they're only living off designs from 20 years ago
Y'all get fooled by fashion blogs and shyt. Living off?:mjlol: The shoes that nike makes their bread and butter on are run of the mill running shoes you've never heard of like the pegasus. Not fashion shyt.

Nike been lost for a while now while adidas churns out quality shyt. Only old Nike styles are worth buying these days
FALSE


Adidas got hot because they managed to profit from a coup at nike where a bunch of their designers left for Adidas and worked in shyt they had developed for nike into Adidas line of shoes.

Now that the nike exit stimulus has dried up Adidas has fallen right back behind Nike because as per usual they can't keep up with their rate of innovation.

Adidas tried to ramp up some new designs and fall back on them for some time as well as Kanye's celebrity endorsement. But playing it cool doesn't win in the Sneaker Arena. And their Kanye stimulus has also dried up. His Adidas shyt is flopping since his c00n transformation.

Old nikes aka retros have never been a large share of profit margins or market value but what they do is drive Brand diversity and they are less important now since for the last half a decade what is pushing sneaker culture forward has been new designs/tech not retros.

If I'm gonna go away from my normal retro shoes I think I'd rather go with something like these.

Shiiiiiit not Nike Running. They’ve been low key holding shyt down for the whole company and everh piece of tech that goes into the running shoes eventually makes its way to everything else.
