Nike is one of the most recognizable brands in the world. It is not only renown for its high quality athletic apparel but it is also known as one of the best manufacturers and designers for sporty fashion for both the gym and the streets. Nike is among the sole companies that took note that, “Americans are wearing yoga pants, running gear and basketball shoes not just to-and-from the gym, but also around town.” (Fortune). Active wear is suddenly chic. They noticed that Americans find that athletic gear is comfortable after all. Analysts say that the attention manufacturers are making to fabrics and new colors and styles have helped to broaden the category’s appeal. “Active wear is booming, with sales growth exceeding that of the apparel market as a whole, consumers are drawn to its comfort and versatility, and the fact that it still makes a fashion statement.” (NPD analyst Marshal Cohen).

The company’s social media and Internet based marketing practices and the Nike ID personalization website that allows customers to design their own footwear is one of the few features that makes Nike stand out from the rest. All of this information is provided on ‘Nike Digital Sport’, a part of the company that makes personal performance tracking devices and software that allows the company to obtain user data.
