Nike is a footwear and apparel juggernaut. The company sells its products in over 150 countries around the world and offers some of the best prices and discounts (you can look here). Today, Nike is the company that is second to none when it comes to marketing to consumers. For this reason, it is hard to say that one company is more important to the sports clothing industry than Nike.
Nike has developed a very extensive and unique marketing style when it comes to their product launch. Here are the top ways in which Nike marketing has influenced and changed the way the sports apparel industry looks at itself.
The Brand is More Than the Product
Nike has always been more than just a sports clothing company. The name of the company actually refers to the creation of the world’s first sportswear line, and the branding of Nike represents the complete philosophy and philosophy of the company. This philosophy is based on the idea that there is a relationship between people and athletic objects, whether it is a pair of shoes, a shoe for a running shoe, or the shoe that goes on your feet. Nike is constantly innovating new styles, materials, and design philosophies, and in doing so, it helps define what athletic objects look like and how they are perceived. 2. Nike Is Flexible Nike has always been a company that embraces the changing fashion of its customers. From the early days of the sportswear brand that gave you the’swoosh’, Nike has been working to keep pace with the changing environment. While there were occasional outcries by customers, and a few incidents like a fake Air Jordan’s Air Max 1 “redesign” with the company’s famous orange color scheme, it never really seemed to matter. This was because the brand could always find a creative answer to its customers’ needs. You can always count on the Nike brand to innovate for your convenience, no matter what you wear or what you want to look like. There is no shortage of cool things to wear from the Nike line. A casual pair of sneakers and sneakers for an event can look great or throw on a pair of boots or a polo for the gym. A T-shirt or hoodie can be worn for the morning commute. Even a pair of Jordans in your collection can go great with any outfit, no matter what the occasion may be.
The Nike Air Yeezy 1 “Red October” will release this Friday. There will be plenty of colorways, but here’s the best option for those of you who want to go all out.
New Balance 890
The New Balance 890 is a sneaker that’s just about every bit as fancy as the Yeezys. The New Balance 890 features an all-black upper that’s inspired by the leather and suede used on the Yeezy. The shoes have premium detailing that’s sure to set them apart from other sneakers out there. The 890 is in stores today.
NU Season Update – January 2012
2011 Post Season Update:
As the season concluded I was honored to have been named 1st Team Sierra Foothill All League and 2nd team Sacramento Region All Metro Team. I was also named to the Sacramento Region Holiday Classic All Star Team and we played against the East Bay All Stars in Danville California on December 23, and here are some video highlights.
Although we only made it to the first round of playoffs, two teams from our League won section championships: Granite Bay (D1) and Del Oro( D3). Del Oro went on to the California Bowl State Championship D2 game losing to Helix of San Diego.
2011 Season Overview:
The Miners finished the regular season 7-3 and headed for the playoffs in early November. We had a solid year and improved every week.
Here is an article about my team and me as we entered post season play. Earlier in the season our local newspaper did a profile on me that talked about both football and my work with Club Interact at my high school.
On 11-11-11 we played our 11th and final game of the season when we lost in the playoffs to Franklin of Elk Grove. I am proud of our team and to have started every game of my 4 years in high school.
It was exciting in 2009 when we won the CIF Division 1 Section Championship and exciting to be back in the playoffs again this year too. I am looking very forward to the opportunity to continue to play in college next year.

About Alec
I am a Senior  and 2nd year starting offensive center for the Nevada Union High School Miners – one of Northern California’s top high school football programs.
I’ve been playing organized sports since I was 6 years old including football, baseball, basketball, volleyball (including participating on the Nor Cal Junior Olympics Club Team) and even travel ice hockey. I also am on the NU Varsity Track Team too. While I love them all – my focus is now on football and specifically the offensive center position.
You can learn more about me here as well as my team on the Nevada Union Football Page on Facebook. I’ve also added a little bit more about me and my extracurricular activities here too.
Thanks again for visiting my site and I can be contacted at alecsarner54@gmail.com
