Jason Day to Nike? (MERGED)

[craigle]

Could this be Nikes Plan???? close their golf business model, then buy Taylormade????

[RICKYBOBBY]

Sorry I should have been more specific

 

NIKE will sell a ton MORE apparel.

 

They are already the leader I believe but with this signing and the 10-20 more that are reportedly in the works, I think you will see the Swoosh on so many people over the weekend on TV it will be impossible to ignore.

[Arpeggi]

day will help sell tons of $270 shoes. Great move.

It may work for a little while, but once people discover what I discovered they will not buy Nike any more. Their quality of clothing just doesn't hold up well unless you're buying the $100 shirts. And their shorts fade faster than a boy band.

Was Day with Nike years ago?

As an amateur.

I bought a Nike shirt two years ago(only Nike product i have ever bought, it was on sale) and it still looks near new. I bought two Under Amor shirts this spring and they both began to pill during their first wearing. I know what brand I consider to be of poor quality between the two and it isn't Nike.

I would think a shirt worn in Canada for two years and the same shirt worn in Texas for 2 years is not a fair comparison. We play year round here in Texas, most of which are accompanied by high humidity and very high heat causing sweat to deteriorate the material much quicker than in Canada. Just wanted to point that out as a possible factor.

How long until Nike haters say that the fabric in their shirts isn't up to par with the other companies and that's why Jason Day doesn't win an event...inferior apparel lol

[supermario84]

I haven't bought anything Nike in a long time. I have a pair of the TW 11's and they were a great shoe. Finished now. Haven't bought any nike shirts in a long time either. Had some very Nice tw shirts from 2010 and 2011, button snaps...the collars all came off. Paid $120 a shirt for 4 shirts that lost their collars. Lol. Like some of their looks in clothing...shoes outright hideous and don't like the feeling of them...would buy a version of tw golf shoe like those 2011's though.

[rtran]

I think nike is the best looking apparel and gear company for numerous sports. Under Amour has that super ugly logo that reminds me of something you can pick up at walmart

It's already happened.

Lol

[Arpeggi]

If you want to disparage Nike'a styles, please don't compare to boring dad styles from Under Armour. Most bland and boring brand out there.

The irony, of course, is that you can actually buy Nike at Wal-Mart...

I haven't found Nike at any Wal-Mart I've ever been to.

[Dicka]

I don't particularly like the Nike style...but even I'd wear their clothes all day, every day for $10mill. I'd even sleep in golf shoes for that much.

[aceofclubs]

Word is Nike offers a very nice health care plan. No brainer for Day.

[Conrad1953]

LOL Day moves to Nike for health reasons. Awesome headline!

[andrieddle]

He gets 10 million a year and will only wear the shirt, pants and shoes once (he won't use them and re-wear them the next weekend, he'll get new set every time he plays).......why not? I will do the same as Jason any day any second....unless someone else offers me 20 million...

[Terry Gold]

The traction these brand threads get never ceases to amaze. It's like reading grade school drama class auditions for board of director roles.

[BigLeftyinAZ]

Why? Adidas apparel and shoes are far superior to what Nike offers. Nike isn't even a close second . Guess he's just chasing the money. Wish him well, when his feet hurts after every round he plays

I have never once gone into a golf shop and looked at a Adidas apparel item and said "I have to have that". They only do solids and any brand can do solids.

I'm just going to reword that in my head to more of a in my opinion kind of thing as opposed to posting it like its a fact.

 

I personally prefer Nike (I find the quality to be roughly the same) however the style Nike offers suits me better. (not just golf either)

[youngwaldo]

Adidas, Puma, Nike, Under Armour, etc. every brand has a line that is hideous to someone.

 

Wk

LOL............right! Lets see some data that supports your opinion.

 

Of course it's about the money. But not any more so than ball, driver, shoe, or any other endorsement money these guys get.

Are his feet going to hurt with all models of Nike shoes?

 

Is that why you don't like them? You bought a pair that didn't fit properly and switched to Adidas, found a pair that fit and now see them as the top footwear and apparel company?

If you're talking about online then that's just a market place like Amazon. It's not really Wal-Mart

that will never happen. I'd rather die then wear spikeless shoes .

 

As to all the other haters. Yes, it's just my opinion. That's all we have. Adidas has climachill which is a great fabric, what does Nike have ? Nothing that I'm aware of.

[WHC888]

take it from a spoiled brat who spends around $10k in golf apparel every year, I've tried many many brands, J Lindeberg, Polo Golf, RLX, Adidas, Hugo Boss Green Label, FootJoy, Puma, Ashworth, Oakley.....you name it I probably tried it.

I consistently find that Nike has the best FIT, MATERIAL and DESIGN by far comparing to any other brand.
