I wrote an extended discussion on why adidas has been making moves a few months back. I noticed everyone was relying on BOOST and NMD as the reason Nike has taken a backseat. According to analysts adidas’ product was key to their consistency over the last year. What was being ignored was the shifting landscape in retail and marketing. Nike relied heavily upon its endorsers via sports. The problem is the medium of television is dying and sports are no longer as relevant to the market as they were. The evidence is in dwindling numbers for sporting events.  I said in the report below that adidas was winning in marketing and for the first time it appeared that Wieden and Kennedy did not understand how to shift Nike from their past to their present past.
