Are Nike products actually high-quality and worth the money or are they just over-hyped

Word I returned a couple of shoes that I played ball in to them with no problem.




Unless they changed it for the second iteration the first vapormax was a running shoe. That’s why we were told at Nike from product info, I’ve even run in mine. They’re good but it feels like cheating as the bubble gives you the bounce. Also, if they pop you supposed to contact Nike support as they are guaranteed not to.

One thing I’ll give Nike is their customer service is amazing, their return policy is great. You can try anything and return it within 30 days even if you don’t like it.

The Vapormax isn’t a running shoe though...they specifically told me not to run heavy in mines at the footlocker. I had mine for a year with no problems

Its marketed as one...:yeshrug:

I mean I wouldn't run in them every single time, but for 200$, I'm not not trying to hear that shyt:pachaha:

Not gonna lie, I semi regret buying them because I might have been able to get 2 pairs of sneakers

Still have some basketball shorts from the 90s that are still in great condition and I wear from time to time. Nike products are top quality IMO. Still rockin my AM90s, AM1s, 95s, and 97s.
Loving my Vapormaxes, and Epic React Flyknits.

NIke is great quality, but you're also paying for the name and history...they've undoubtably revolutionized design, clothing tech, and marketing in sportswear...not sure how this is even a question...

but where you get it also determines quality...Nike stores, athletic shoe stores in mall, etc, have the better quality stuff...stuff you get at outlets or Marshall's/TJ Maxx type of stores are lower (not all the time, but mostly)

Worth it over other common athletic brands. Compare Nike Tech Fleece sweats or Nike Lab sweats to Adidas Tiros and you’ll see the difference.

are there any Nike running or soccer pants similar to the Tiros in fit and material??? not anything thicker like the Tech Fleece...

I'll post a $160 Jordan 1 sneaker that has premium materials and isn't hand made that goes for well over $700 on the resale market....

I’ve got a couple of pairs of Nike FC pants, similar fit to the tiros with the sharp taper but material is thinner / not stretch.
