Give credit for Nike to knowing their customers. Older Americans, like me, who hate Kapernick are not the types to blow three or more figures on sneakers.

this will fizzle out of course but it is telling that NFL ratings are down. Monday night football came in 2nd lowest of all time. regular prime time down. So what accounts for this Nike spur?

selling over-priced shoes to stupid people. The initial surge will slow and then they will realize they will have to increase their international market to sustain the hate white people business

Nike is responsible for a culture of greed in certain low income neighborhoods.

Nike did their market research and Nike knows who they are marketing to. Once welfare reform passes Nike should expect a significant dip in their sales.

I’m not about to believe these claims of increased sales. Call me a conspiracy nut, but I’ve come to expect fake news from all quarters.

Cool, no more problems identifying enemy combatants. They are now uniformed soldiers.

“Sold” = “stolen from hood stores”.

Fake news. This is a full on propaganda campaign so presume they made far fewer items to up the sales figures.
Let’s see the raw numbers.

Remember both dicks and penny’s cooked the books until they couldn’t any longer.

That is fine.

Let’s see what happens in 6 or 9 months. The rash of purchases by Nike lovers will be over and it will be business as usual....

Except a decent percentage (5%,10%?) of us out there will never treat Nike the same again and will buy another brand if available. 5 or 10% reduction in long term sales is very serious.

I’m done with them, that much I can say. Too many other quality brands to need them.

What are their sales numbers? Counting out of stock items could be tied to factors unrelated to sales. My out of stock numbers are higher, too. It is not because of increased sales. It is because of manufacturer issues leading to warehouse shortages. I can’t sell it if I haven’t had it for several months.

Consumers like you are more than likely taxpaying citizens. The taxpayers are probably paying for the NIKE products.

George Soros of some other dipship probably bought everyone of them.

Satan always rewards his followers with material gains at the front end of their deal. Its the follow up that gives reason to pause for the bearer of the contract.

Can they manipulate figures?

Also, the World Cup was this summer, Nike made some good revenue off of that.

I’d wait a bit on the analysis.
