I run in brooks and love them :)

Been seeing more and more On Clouds when hiking the trails though still mostly on Gen X and older.

We’re all thinking they should make some acquisitions right? The core brand just isn’t cool right now.

Has $NKE made any significant acquisitions in the past? The company has experienced some headwinds in the past but has world class marketing and product design & scale distribution. CEO Donahue sucked (surprising no one except the BoD) and the new peeps will reverse his idiotic decisions.

Lots of companies not needing to be acquired for an exit like before as capital has become more abundant

Even small brands are picking up ….

It’s been very interesting to observe:)

Yes, Converse.

Ah yes, I vaguely remember that. Looking on BBG, it does not appear there has not been any in the past decade.

Not to my knowledge, but they let the competition create real followings that I don’t think they can claw back organically.

While I am not a $NKE historian, I am old enough to remember in the past when other shoe brands took share from the company and it looked like it would never win those customers back.
