Innovation is only part of the Nike recipe. Design and Marketing are two other key pillars. But what happens when you innovate and don’t need to?
Did this MLB uniform flop happen because of working from home? Or what’s the excuse/reason for this?

Nk made some big mistakes here, they had limited time and did not apply proper resources to take MLB on. Definately blame VP of Sports Product Management and Design VP accountable for not paying attention, still employed at Nk, but likely laid off their minons for accountability. These are the same VPs leading NBA, Soccer, "Sport" ect. Progressively Nk has been outsourcing to Fanatics, who could be making back door changes to make money for themselves, Likely not this is a Nk mistake designs and materials. Expect more League issues and concerns to arise, outsourcing to the Fanatics of the world will continue, as well as progressively moving Nk jobs overseas.
