Thread regarding Nike Inc. layoffs

@ew I’d have to disagree a bit. It feels like Nike is prioritizing inclusive design, focusing more on diversity, equity, and accessibility rather than tailoring strictly to fit, athletic, or slimmer consumers

JJ needs to go.

The problem is that it’s not you they’re designing for, it’s the 19-24 yr old phenom (or so they think).

High margins make for slim material and construction options

Coming from someone who used to be a leader in apparel, I can tell you exactly why. It's because apparel doesn't get the resources, attention, and funding like footwear does. Even though, for the last 5 quarters apparel sales have been better than footwear. Given the current state of the businesses, hopefully this has changed. But knowing Nike, I highly doubt it. They get in the way of their own success.

Considering they fit on dress forms from 2008, that explains a LOT.

Can we please get pockets on the GD leggings already?!

i bought some nike apparel during sample sale and wore to office, also bought some counterfeits from elsewhere

guess what, the counterfeit outlasted my genuines, genuine started flaking and the pants tape dropped off.
who in the right mind sc--w their own brand harder than counterfeits?

Spot on - was in Nordstrom last week and every brand in the women’s athleisure area looks levels better than us in terms of fabric, fit, style, and color choices. When you want to purchase multiple Zella (Nordstrom’s in house brand) items over Nike, we have a real problem.

For the umpteenth time:
PETITES

Please and thank you.

That is all.

Since you work at Nike you make too much money to know to not buy Nike apparel… It’s not for you.

Honestly I don’t know what you people are talking about. I genuinely prefer Nike apparel over maaaany other brands. Especially the yoga and the streetwear stuff is fantastic. Shoes are meh for me, but clothes? Gimme more

Smartest thing I’ve read on here in awhile.
