Under Armour has Nike shook

[CodeBlaMeVi]

As a shareholder, I love it.

They are to Nike what Nike was to Converse 30 yrs ago.

They also have Brady, Harper, and Kershaw on the roster.

And now Nike owns Converse. Would you look at that?

shyts is like a old nikka trying to look cool

The color ways do not lend themself to be worn with casual wear, but on the court I think they're par for the course.

But Steph Curry isn't Jordan

Why are some of y'all sworn to Nike? Do you own stock or is it just a thing? If so, why is it a 'thing'?

People like me. People who care about money.

In relation to sports discussion brah. C'mon son context.

You asked. And it matters for sports too: even if it wasn't their fault Adidas is forever tied to what happened to rose.

More competitive appArell market == more r and d and eventually improved athletic events.

Their shoes look better than everyone else's.
Their shoes performance depends on sport but they are at least top tier in performance.
Their apparel looks better than everyone else's but arguably UA.
Their apparel performs on par with everyone else's.

And

we've bought their products since before we were using our own money

Does anybody else notice the similarities between the Huarache 2k4 (Supposed to be Kobe's first Nike sig. shoe but Colorado happened) and the Curry 1/One


The Curry One

Huarache 2K4

Look like Kobe 3s to me

Brehs waiting in line overnight for UA shoes

Waiting in line overnight for any shoes

Lulu lemon and under armour are competitors in the real world.

UA vs Nike is a work in progress.

One of my company's clients.

They're hunting Nike.

 

[Lakers Offseason]

Under Armour got lucky with Spieth.

Rory is still the best golfer though, even with the past 2 majors by Spieth.

Nike still got the best and more importantly most marketable athletes in the world.

Jordan, Lebron, Tiger, Rory, Federer, Nadal, Durant, Kobe, Ronaldo, Sharapova amongst their stable.

 

[philmonroe]

Because Nike was so shook when they outbid UA for Durant

They didn't outbid them they just matched or some shyt like that since that was in his contract. Don't know if that was said already.

 

[philmonroe]

this


People here refuse to see the whole picture of things.
UA will never touch Nike in shoe sales
that's not there goal
They are swallowing up collegiate contracts which is an amazing marketing tool
Also,
They are heavy in recruiting the best minds out of college on the business side
They have a great internship program and they're a better company to work for straight outta college
Nike can only maintain or go down
Under Armour....up

Most of the best schools in sports are nike though so who are they really getting?

I'm a huge Steph stan and I'd love to rock his kicks but they look worse than fukking Scketchers. I'd rather go barefoot or wear the throwback pay less shoe Olajuwon Spaldings than those.
Their shirts all look like some poor knock offs or some shyt a 40 year old cac going through a mid life crisis would wear.
I love Steph but ain't nobody about to wear that trash
