What Redditors are Saying

Are Nike Products Worth the Price?

TL;DR Nike products are often priced higher due to their strong brand presence and marketing. While some items, especially high-performance shoes, justify the cost for certain users, many consumers feel that alternatives offer similar quality at a lower price.

Marketing and Brand Influence

Nike's pricing is heavily influenced by its marketing prowess and brand recognition. Many people buy Nike products because of their effective advertising campaigns and endorsements from top athletes [1:1][1:2]. This branding strategy has positioned Nike similarly to Apple in terms of consumer perception—offering premium products that come with a higher price tag [1:2].

Product Quality and Performance

While Nike excels in marketing, opinions on product quality vary. Some users praise specific high-performance models, like the Vaporfly series and Alphafly, which are considered top-tier racing shoes [1:8]. However, other parts of their lineup may not stand out as much compared to competitors [1:6]. In terms of casual wear, there are mixed reviews about durability, with some users experiencing quick wear and tear [2:2], while others report long-lasting performance [2:1].

Price Comparisons with Competitors

Nike products often fall within the same price range as other premium brands like Adidas, Brooks, Asics, and New Balance [1:4]. Despite this, some consumers feel that Nike charges more than what the quality justifies, particularly for non-specialized items like apparel [5:1][5:6]. Alternatives such as Asics and New Balance are frequently recommended for better value [2:1][4:3].

Consumer Sentiment and Ethical Considerations

There is a notable divide among consumers regarding Nike's ethical practices and corporate image. Some avoid Nike due to perceived ethical issues or dislike for large corporations [1:2]. Additionally, frustrations with Nike's SNKRS app and limited availability of popular releases have affected customer trust and satisfaction [3:1][3:7].

Recommendations Beyond Discussions

For those considering Nike products, it's advisable to weigh the specific benefits of the item against its cost and explore alternatives. High-performance running shoes might be worth the investment if they meet your needs, but for casual wear or general sports apparel, exploring other brands could provide similar quality at a lower price.

ORIGINAL POST

Out of curiosity, I asked my girlfriend (who’s been running for 10+ years now) whether Nikes are a good brand for running, and she told me she’d never bought one and was told to never buy one by her running coaches. Now, I come across posts where the majority of people here who bought new shoes bought Nikes, and I’m just wondering why?

Nike is the “Apple” of running shoes. Their marketing is absolutely bomb and their products are great quality usually but you pay a premium a lot of times. Also, they don’t work for everyone either by the shoes themselves, or ethical reasons, or just hate for the “big dog”. That said, I think there’s bias both ways. Coaches and athletes that hate Nike based on the above reasons, and coaches and athletes that love them for various reasons. I’m personally a little of both. I like some of their products and will pay for some of the tech or hype, but others I won’t buy unless there’s a deal. I love my Terra Kiger 5 and 6, Invincibles, Epic React 1’s, but am “meh” on my Zoomfly Flyknits and others I’ve had in the past.

I don't know what you mean. Everyone else hits the same price points as Nike when you get into premium running shoes. Adidas, Brooks, Hoka, Asics, Saucony, New Balance, etc. etc. Every top brand. They've all got products that occupy $100-200+ market space. Maybe Nike has the one stand out in the Alphafly, but other than that, there's someone right with them for every price point.

They are good at marketing, and also they work for many people.

I think they work best for talented runners (elites and fast average runners), but they do not work for me. Part of the reason is their stability offerings are not very good.

So, Nike does make great shoes for a certain type of runner, and they are in total, great for the sport of running because how much they invest in technology and athletes, but a lot of people run in Nike because Nike is amazing at marketing.

I say this as someone that ran in Nikes for 5 years with all sorts of on/off injuries, and have doubled my mileage in the last year, without Nikes, and have experienced no injuries.

Hopefully I am not cursing myself here.

Im sum, your girlfriend is right and also wrong ��

I really enjoyed the Pegasus, it just appears I should not have been running it.

I do not get along with React foam, but people do love their Reacts, so that is also a personal thing.

But I think the Nike Zoom Invincible is a good example of pure marketing in the sense, people are shelling out $180 for an easy day shoe. I'm sure the shoe is fine enough for some, but it's a pure hype machine. Except, maybe, if you log a ton of miles every week

I was told this years ago at a pro running shop as well. But I think Nike really stepped up their game and improved their running shoes so things have changed.

I still remember the guy looking at my funny and said “marathon people never buy nikes, they wear ASICS” (I live in Asia ��)

Las zapatillas de Nike son de mala calidad y tienen un precio totalmente en desacuerdo a la calidad del producto.

Posted by joakohola123 · in r/chile · 7 months ago

Llevo siendo usurario de zapatillas Nike “sneakers” durante los últimos 4 años y realmente pienso que la calidad de Nike es horrible los materiales de las zapatillas son terribles actualmente eh estado usando unas Jordan 1 low (no retro) y en menos de un mes se ah empezado a romper y la verdad pienso que es algo totalmente decepcionante para una marca la cual es cara comparación de otras marcas con zapatos de igual o mejor calidad y me ha pasado esto con una gran cantidades de pares de esta marca enfocado a lo que es vestir y la verdad ya me tiene totalmente decepcionado Nike sobre todo con su zapatilla “Dunk” la cual es totalmente una estafa te clavan un precio de 120 mil por una zapatilla la cual parece que está hecha de cartón porque das un paso y ya está terriblemente arrugada y la verdad me da una decepción total de que Nike cuente con materiales tan terribles en zapatillas de rango de precio de 70-150 mil siento que es realmente una estafa, y sus zapatillas recién llegan a ser de una calidad “decente” cuando pagas más 220 mil por una zapatilla retro las cuales ni si quiera son la gran cosa y todo esto pasa en las zapatillas “snkrs” que están enfocadas ah vestir, y realmente quisiera preguntarles cómo ha sido su experiencia con esta marca y la calidad de sus productos?

Tengo 4 pares nike y les he dado como caja a cada uno durante aprox 3 años y están en super buenas condiciones.

Lo malo es que son todas blancas y se ensucian rápido, sin embargo, las meto a la lavadora y quedan limpias.

Con lo que si tuve problemas fue con las calcetas, las blancas al menos. La misma cantidad de tiempo comprado (que las zapatillas) mas no de uso, ya que tengo mas calcetas, y ya casi no me quedan calcetas nike porque se molieron todas en los talones.

Poleras, buzos, chaquetas y todas esas weas, los encuentro tujeria pura, asi que nunca he comprado nada de eso en nike jajaja. Mi papá tiene si unos shorts y poleras desde que tengo uso de razón asi que al menos esas indumentarias salieron buenas jahajsh

Not only is Nike losing significant market share and stock value by the billions, they have lost their creative edge and their perceived integrity. No one trusts the app anymore. No one likes the colorways and collabs. It’s like they lost their “juice”. Not only do the “Draws” feel rigged, even trying to purchase something FCFS never seems to work. Don’t they ever listen to what the customers are saying? Bring back Mark P as CEO. He got shit done. You can do better Nike.

The issue isn’t Nike rigging the app, it’s the resellers botting the stock. Nike can remove a huge portion of them, but no matter what, some are still gonna get through. If it’s a limited stock/hype release you can bet your ass that there’s probably millions of bot entries which means there’s only gonna be a handful of people that want em for the toe that are actually going to get lucky and catch a dub. Sad honestly. Shoe game has changed a lot since I got my first pair of J’s on xmas in 98 when I was 10 (He got game 13s) and not in a good way

That’s outrageous, that’s unfair UPDATE: The pants are called tech fleece, so thats why are so damn expensive, they are comfy ngl, but I have a 15 bucks sweatpants who are 95% the same, so dont buy pants from nike is just a waste of money

I had two pairs of different Nike's, and they just didn't feel good at all. For me anyway.

Switched to Adidas copa pure.1, and after a few weeks, they were like comfy slippers. Got a few predators 24 and 25 they are okay, but nothing like the copas they feel bit tighter because of the synthetic (like rubber bands on feet lol)

The remakes are just marketing hype. Don't fall for it.

Kurz gesagt, weil ich langfristig investieren will, eine schöne Kaufzone erreicht wurde, die im Jahr 2014 aufgebaut und seit einer kurzen Berührung in 2017 nichtmehr erreicht wurde, der gesamte Markt gerade derart negativ auf diese Aktie schaut, dass ich von einer übertrieben negative Perspektive ausgehe, die Dividende ansprechend ist, ich an einer Kehrtwende glaube, da Nike immernoch im Athletensponsoring und damit Konsumentenwahrnehmung unangefochtene Nummer eins ist und ich es mag, dann zu investieren, wenn alle denken, sie wüssten Bescheid.

Das hier ist ein wichtiger Kommentar. Ich sehe bei der Aktie nur sehr mässiges Wachstumspotenzial aus organischem Geschäft.

Im Bereich Schuhe ist die Differenzierung sehr schwer geworden (Tendenziell bezahlt Nike hier sogar viel zu viel für Marketing). Der historische Erfolg mit den Carbonplatten und gutem Schaum ist rum. Im Bereich Kleidung bin ich weniger up-to-date, sehe es aber tendenziell noch schwieriger hier viel (organisches) Wachstum erzeugen zu können. Interessant wäre es sich über anorganisches Wachstum mal mit jmd aus der Industrie zu unterhalten.

Ich persönlich vermute, neben der Zollsituation, die sich aber auch wieder regeln wird, ein großes Problem im Marketing. Auf der einen Seite einfach schlechte Kampagnen, welche die Zielgruppe nicht abholt, sondern der typische modernde … sind, zum anderen unglaublich hohe Ausgaben für Athletensponsorings, die zwar wichtig sind für den Weltmarkenstatus, aber, so denke, unfassbar viel Geld fressen.

Meiner Meinung nach kann und wird sich Nike aber aus der Krise erholen und naja, ohne Krise auch keine Kaufgelegenheit. Falls es weiter runter geht, kaufe ich halt nochmal. Dafür kauft man ja in Tranchen :)

Jupp, ansonsten ist der Sport-Fashion-Trend auch langsam durch, der ab Mitte der 2010er alle Sportmarken beflügelt hat und gleichzeitig andere Modemarken Marktanteile gekostet hatte. Sportmarken werden immer da sein, aber in nächster Zeit nicht mehr so im Straßenbild präsent sein (bis es in ~10-15 Jahren mit voller Wucht zurück ist).

Ansonsten ist das Marketing auch so ne Sache. Puma macht es gerade mit ner seeehr guten Kampagne vor, wie es geht.

Nearly everyone who bought that shoe has experienced that even though they produce it for over 20 years, so it is not like I wear them wrong or something like that

Sure, but Nike will usually refund you. Start a chat or go into the shop.

Je suis tellement déçu de la qualité de nike ça fait des années que les chaussures sont de mauvaises qualitées, bulle d'air qui couine ou qui se perce en deux mois, matière qui se déchire en 2mois plastique qui se décolle d'ailleur les points de colles sont super visibles vos chaussures que vous achetez 200 euros ont un coût de revient de 15 euros si ça se trouve c'est devenu minable j'en ai marrre d'acheter des paires tous Les 2mois sans compter les chaussures homme qui sont de plus en plus étroite pour pouvoir convenir à la mode unisexe c'est du n'importe quoi des pieds d'homme ce sont des pieds d'homme et pour les femmes ce sont des pieds de femmes pourquoi vouloir faire un mélange des genre les chaussures sont hyper étroite.. ridicule donc j'ai changé de marque et n'hésitez pas à faire marcher la garantie nike de 2ans..

Maybe I’m just lucky or maybe because some of my shoes were made so long ago. But I have a few pairs that are over 5 years old and still in perfect condition

Because when the demand is sky high, the company can produce garbage-quality products and they will still sell.

AI Answer

🤖

are nike products worth the price

Key Considerations:

  1. Quality and Durability: Nike products are generally known for their high quality and durability. Many users find that Nike shoes and apparel last longer than cheaper alternatives.

  2. Performance Technology: Nike invests in innovative technologies (like Flyknit, Air Max, and Dri-FIT) that enhance performance, comfort, and support, especially for athletes.

  3. Brand Reputation: Nike is a well-established brand with a strong reputation in the sports and athletic wear market. This can add value for consumers who prioritize brand recognition.

  4. Style and Design: Nike products often feature trendy designs and collaborations, making them appealing for both athletic and casual wear.

  5. Resale Value: Some limited-edition Nike products can retain or even increase in value over time, making them a worthwhile investment for collectors.

Takeaways:

  • If you prioritize performance, durability, and style, Nike products can be worth the price.
  • For casual wear or if you're on a budget, consider alternatives or look for sales and discounts on Nike items.
  • Evaluate your specific needs (e.g., running, training, lifestyle) to determine if the investment aligns with your usage.

Recommendation: If you're an athlete or someone who values performance gear, investing in Nike products can be justified. However, if you're looking for everyday wear, you might find similar quality at lower price points from other brands.
