Nike ShoesNike shoes have expanded from the traditional running shoe market into trailrunning, hiking, and casual. What used to be referred to as just sneakers now have fancy names, such as the Nike Kyotee and the Orizaba, that denote the type of shoe, allowing for easy classification in the market. The Orizaba and Nike Kyotee are both trailrunning shoes, but you'd never know from the name. These names are most useful, however, for confusing the public and giving sales representatives something else to memorize. The straprunner, for example, is not a running shoe but a Nike sandal. Nike has developed kid's, men's and woman's sandals for a wide range of activities from casual to running and water sports. Hiking boots make by Nike are not the rugged type you would expect to see on the feet of a K-2 summit team, but they are sturdy enough to give you support for a day hike, maybe a short backpacking trip. Meeting the demand of the market and requirement of business, Nike has expanded beyond their traditional core market. Now you have a wide range of shoes to choose from, not just a replacement pair for the old sneakers in your closet. Custom Rubber Bracelets are great for locking merrell sandal peices together for long term storage. Rubber wristbands will snap easier, so it's best to use silicone wristbands when attempting to do this. |
