no matter what you like sports or not,you must have noticed the great sport brands Nike and adidas. they are infiltrating through our life day by day.we like them for their quality and spirit.however,they are the competitor after all...in past time they competet badly ,u know.

how do you think them in future,especially in market...and talk about which one do you like best.

Nike, the famous sports brand was founded in 1964 with a different name, got the present name in the year 1978. The organisation has its Head Office in Beaverton,United States. It specialises in basketball and running shoes and many other sports products which are also used for training. The association of celebrities with this brand is much talked about and proves to be fruitful in attaining sponsorships. The impressive line up of products the company has, speaks for itself.The brand has under it famous names like Converse,Cole Haan and Umbro.

Adidas is another widely known sports brand having German base, the parent company of this organisation was set up in the year 1948. It has captured the international market with its soccer shoes and sportswear for some other sports like tennis. Adidas has long sustained in the competition with a somewhat unique and classic approach and has earned credibility through years. Reebok,Rockport and Taylor Made are some names under the Adidas Group.

Adidas, because nike is over-priced and heavily advertised.

The cost are all passed on to the consumer.

umm,same to me...usually i buy adidas product more than nike.for all nike is expensive,but the quality is better than other brand like adidas or reebok in fact.i don't like the recent nike advertisement acted by nba player James,which is extrem against chinese archaic culture.especially the dragon the symbol of China and a Taoist who roots in Archaian China in the ad...lots of chinese yas oppose to the advertisement consumingly when it played on TV.

dude, I had some bad experiences with adidas.

Back a few years they had the "feet-you-wear" style basketball shoes. I had a pair, the sole cracked from the middle. Replaced them, happened again, by then I had a pair of Nike (which I believe I still have)

however, my latest shoes are once again Adidas. Adidas is superior in most aspects except basketball shoes, for those Nike rules...

For soccer wear for example, Nike doesn't even exist, the competiton is mainly between Puma and Adidas.

umm,nike is mots active in Amerian area in soccer field and does very well than other competitors.in Europe,where belongs to adidas,puma,umbo or lotto...maybe,but the force of nike is extending all over the earth times and times,faster than other old brands.er, usually which soccer wear i bought is adidas,especially frock,feels rather comfortable,and the price is moderate by us alien college student. :rolleyes:

Hey man,you gto me with this topic. It was because of Nike-Air Jordan mostly that I decided to study Economics-Markeing,so I could work for Jordan Brand on day.Nothing,really nothing can compare to Nike.Adidas is very boring company,there is no life in their products.Nike on the opposite is modern,and has courage to break new grounds.Air Jordan is the best example for this.

Actually I'm not into brands so much.. I don't care if it's adidas or nike or something else. I have some things from adidas, some from nike.
They are holding on good, with good quality but so do others.
I first look at the design, price and then I'll buy it if it's good and not very expensive. I don't buy only adidas or nike..
But I like adidas more, I have more adidas things and they're good...

I probably prefer NIKE... Because I think the style of the product is really funky and fresh where as adidas, to me, is just classic and a bit old fashioned. I reckon they are the same price but it often depends on where you buy the stuff from. To me Nike is pretty cheap but I guess others don't think so.

Sometimes I buy adidas trainers for things that are dirty etc... like I'd go and play in mud with my adidas trainers and get them muffed without caring and then wear the Nikes out clean and in style... lol
