Nike Fan Club Wishes You a Merry Christmas!

A very Merry christmas to one and all!

Thos of you following this blog would know very well that it ain't the official fan site by Nike.

However, judging by the views received, it's page rank (yes, check it out on Google and typr "Nike Fan Club" and tell me what you see :))and the comments received, it's pretty obvious that you need not be a giant prublishing company to obtain the much appreciate support.

Thanks again!

I was going through my archive and looking at what we could post up this week (since it's Christmas). Would it be a product review, product discussion, or?

Why not a Nike Christmas advertisement?

And I managed to find one. Check this out and once again, Merry Christmas!

Nike Fan Club: Nike Women - Make Yourself Hot!

This has got to be one of the latest commercial released by NIKE celebrating the contributions of women to the field of sports and fitness :)

It features Allyson Felix, Julia Mancuso, and Sofia Boutella. Sorry guys, don't really know whose these ladies are. But one thing's for sure: they are FIT and HOT!




So, anymore similar videos you've come across pertaining to women in Nike commercials or products targetted at the ladies?

Nike Fan Club: Finally Affordable!

Nike collectors will know just about how much it costs to fork out nearly USD 100 for some vintage collection. From my "experience", I often recall that a typical retro-based Nike collection product or apparel will cost twice or nearly (at times on the extreme end of the cost scale) three times that of a current Nike season model.

Recently, I discovered this Nike Outlet Store near my residence and guess what?

Almost everything here cost not more than USD 50! And that includes retro or vintage collection Nike products as well!

How about your country or place of residence? How much would such Nike products cost back at your home town?

Here's some pics I snapped below:

Nike: Caged Soccer

Following the completion of the recent World Cup 2010, I was browsing through some archived Nike commercials and spotted this particular one which bears the true grit of soccer but described in an "imaginative" setting.

You may have seen this some time back, so here's another flashback!

(In case you're wondering what's the sountrack used, it's sung by the King of Rock and Roll, Elvis Presley, "A Little Less Conversation")

Nike Football: "Write The Future"

Well, the World Cup 2010 is now approaching the end.

I should have provided a little more "coverage" here, but I guess there would be tons of other sites already doing so.

I'm honestly not a total fan of soccer, but I do admire the skills and courage of these players all the time.

Here's a great clip (I believe) that's produced by Nike :)

Nike Fan Club: Product Collaboration


Over the years, Nike has had numerous success in collaborating with various industry players across numerous niches spanning from the fasion industry, to pop stars, hollywood actors/ actresses and even (yes), The Transformers!

With its wide range of sports apparel and shoes for all occassions and activities, there is simply no reason why anyone would ont be owning a pair of Nike's or any other Nike apparel. In addition, contrary to some folks' belief that Nike's products are costly, there are various outlets across the globe that carry their own local range of products manufactured by Nike. Granted there maybe the possibility of imitations popping out across the stores, at this current age and time, discerning Nike fans and the current generation of fashionistas maybe experienced and alert enough to spot a fake, overpriced item. Now, it is not in my practice to name any of these stores here, so I guess you'll just have to do the homework yourself *wink*.

Remember "Back to the Future", which featured Michael J. Fox? Especially in Part II, where the character Marty McFly was spotted donning the futuristic version of Nike's apparels? Back then in the eighties, it would seem that such designs and technology involved in Nike's products on screen would have been a dream of the future. But look at today, much of the features covered in the movie are now in actual fact, a reality and are rather affordable due to economis of scale! As they say: never underestimate the imagination of man, as well as the possibility of turning dreams into reality!

And with everyone now talking about the movie "The Transformers", Nike's products although not specifically featured on the movie screen, has actually been adapted in the Japanese manga comics, as well as an actual transformable Nike sneakers! Before you go laughing at this toy product, it would be worthy to note that this toy costs just as much as its original pair of Nike's! IT actally mimics the Nike Air 180.

What will they think of next?
