Waiting for a stylistic competitor to Nike that would go against the Air Max 1s & Air Max 95s. Would have my money an instant if that was the case.

It blows my mind that people think these look good. Do you also wear XXL jean shorts that go down to your ankles and the waistline hangs under your buttcheeks?

Most comfortable shoes I have worn. Own a black pair and now want one in a different color.

I feel like Jordans went out of style when massive baggy jeans/oversize jorts went out of style. Unless your into a really 'urban' look I just don't see how it fits into a grown mans style.

I think something like the below looks a lot more clean and can be worn regardless of how old you are with a pair of shorts/jeans.

Those are one of their goofier styles. They still have lots of normal ones. They seem to have hundreds of different models released at the same given time.

I don't like those, I only wear Nike/Adidas. Reason? Stuff like Vans are so plain that they aren't worth having a pair of shoes just for walking around and then a separate pair of Nikes/Adidas for exercising. Might as well just get the Nikes and save yourself some money.

It's a new wave. Sort like what the other miscer said LGBTQ+. You try and fit all the colors on the rainbow into your designs. Little retards call it "Drip". Just look at other stuff that is popular like Fortnite. Extremely bright and loud colors to grab attention.

There are glowies on the misc now. Don't fall for the bait.

Women are an important part of Nike’s target market. In fiscal 2019, the Women’s Training segment grew faster than the Men’s Training segment. However, in fiscal 2018, the Men’s Training segment grew at a faster rate. Nike’s fiscal year ends on May 3

With an eye toward ensuring future growth, young athletes are also a big part of Nike’s sales strategies, especially in categories such as soccer, basketball, and running. Young athletes also form part of Nike’s target market. We’ll look at these opportunities and their potential later in this article.

Converse, Hurley, and Jordan
Nike purchased Converse in 2003. The brand’s product line focuses on the premium target market. It includes casual apparel and footwear products, which are sporty but not necessarily high performance. Notably, Converse has been losing ground in North America to brands like Vans. Hurley’s target market is action sports such as surfing and skateboarding.

Nike’s Jordan collection, named after basketball superstar Michael Jordan, is also a premium-label brand targeted at athletes. Nike also developed various product lines endorsed by athletes such as LeBron James. These high-performance lines are targeted at athletes.


1. The most obvious answer would be the sneakerhead. This a collector of rare, classic, limited-edition and other sneakers, who treats shoes much in a way that others treat wine or art.
2. the one it has been targeting the most in recent years seems to be women. With the popularity of "athleisure" wear and the emergence of brands like Lululemon Athletica, bigger companies have come to recognize the potential of the women's market.
There is an unspoken thing, we are iron brothers and sisters, we are to support each other and...It is our duty to support our brothers and sisters in the iron game!

It's because our culture peaked. The same thing happened with music, cars and art etc. We are literally falling off a cultural cliff.

That’s what old black alcoholics wear in the city I live in (srs). Common to see them passed out in the gutter with an empty bottle of OE and those exact shoes on.

Nike is pretty garbage outside of the airmax series as far as looks go. But for stylish beater sneakers a mainly stick to converse and vans. For actually wearing out with pants I wear premium Italian leather minimalist sneakers

Anyone else noticed suburbanite white girls starting to wear all white airforce ones now? The ones that get strong tans and wear anklets etc. Kind of hot tbh, but really interesting that they can appropriate a few artifacts from hip hop culture and make it fit

It's one of the very few hobbies that both men and women can start a genuine conversation when out in public. Even when I see what I think are really nice pair of AF1s, AM1s, etc I compliment them. I do have to say that Nike has taken a major nosedive in style even before their PC stances were well announced. Probably 3-4 years now.

I have a pair or roshes that are still going strong 2 years later. Used to wear them to work, put them through the washer and dryer, I’m pretty impressed with the durability considering they are basically like wearing socks.
