Then, in 2020, the company handed its future to a CEO who believed physical retail was a dying model, and what followed became a business school study in how quickly a great company can lose its way. In this episode of The Tom Dupree Show, host Tom Dupree and analyst Michael Dawahare walk through the full arc of Nike’s rise and decline — from its origins in a track coach’s garage to a stock that traded at $180 and has since fallen to around $44. They examine the strategic decisions that caused the damage, the board failures that let it compound, and the hard-won lesson that consumer loyalty, once transferred to a competitor, is almost impossible to reclaim. And for anyone managing retirement assets, the parallels are direct: proven strategies should not be abandoned for untested ones, fundamentals matter more than narratives, and the cost of a foundational error can take years to undo. You cannot put your own lenses on the lenses of your customer — you have to ask how they see the world, not how you see it. — Tom Dupree How Nike Built the Brand — and What It Was Actually Built On Nike was founded on performance athletics. Phil Knight, a runner at the University of Oregon, partnered with legendary track coach Bill Bowerman — who famously experimented with a waffle iron to create better running soles — and built a company that stood for technical innovation and athletic credibility. The brand’s cultural ascent accelerated in 1984 with the signing of Michael Jordan, and from there, Nike became what everyone knows: the dominant force in athletic footwear and apparel, consistently ranked among the world’s most recognized brands. At its peak, Nike operated across multiple business lines — high-heat basketball, lifestyle and streetwear, performance running, and endorsement deals with some of the most iconic athletes in the world. Its Jordan Brand alone eventually grew to represent 25–30% of total business. But that success carried a hidden fragility: the Jordan Brand was built on a generational talent, and there was no clear plan for what would carry that brand forward once Jordan’s cultural relevance inevitably faded with younger consumers. The 2020 CEO Transition and the Fatal Pivot When Nike’s board appointed John Donahoe as CEO in 2020, it elevated someone who had served on the board since 2014 and who had an exceptional track record — at eBay and ServiceNow. But his entire professional background was in direct-to-consumer digital commerce, and he arrived at Nike with a conviction that physical retail distribution was a slowly melting ice cube. His plan: reduce Nike’s dependence on wholesale partners — Foot Locker, Dick’s Sporting Goods, specialty running retailers — and shift the business toward a pure direct-to-consumer model. Margins would improve by eliminating the distribution layer. And the consumer, Donahoe believed, would simply find Nike on their phone rather than in a store. The pandemic made it look like a genius. Physical retail was disrupted, Nike’s direct channels surged, the stock reached all-time highs around $180, and the board was enthusiastic. Beneath the surface, the strategy was already creating irreversible damage. The Shelf Space Problem — and the Competitors Who Said Thank You When Nike told its wholesale partners they would be receiving significantly less product going forward, those partners did not fight back. They simply filled the space with someone else. HOKA — already a credible running brand — accelerated its growth dramatically. On Cloud, a Swiss performance running brand, began one of the most remarkable growth runs in the industry, expanding into running, tennis, golf, and multiple other categories simultaneously. New Balance, ASICS, and Brooks also claimed their share of the newly available retail real estate. The consumer who walked into a Foot Locker or Dick’s and encountered a wall of Nike was now encountering a much more competitive set of choices. They tried the alternatives. Many of them preferred what they found. And once a runner builds loyalty to a particular shoe platform — especially in a category where consumers replace their shoes every 90 days — that loyalty is remarkably durable. Nike also lost something less tangible but equally important: the feedback loop. Specialty running retailers were the ground-level intelligence network that told Nike week by week what runners wanted, what was working, and where the product needed to improve. When Nike walked away from that channel, it walked away from its early warning system. The Board Failure — and the Groupthink That Let It Happen One of the most striking aspects of the Nike story is not that one CEO had a flawed conviction — that happens — but that an entire board of accomplished executives approved and sustained a strategy that was, in hindsight, obviously misaligned with how Nike’s business actually worked. By some accounts, Tim Cook of Apple was on that board during part of this period. It is difficult to imagine Cook making an analogous argument that Apple did not need its retail stores. The dynamic Tom and Michael describe is familiar to anyone who studies large organizations: board members are generally reluctant to challenge a CEO too forcefully, because the social and professional cost of being the dissenter is real. The result is groupthink — a board that validates a strategy long past the point where the data should have prompted hard questions. By late 2022 and into 2023, the numbers made it undeniable. Nike attempted to reverse course, reaching back out to wholesale partners and offering them premium product. The response was polite — and firm. Retailers were glad to take the high-demand items that consumers queued for. The rest of Nike’s moderate catalog? They had already replaced it, and they were satisfied with what they had. Where Nike Stands Today The board replaced Donahoe with Elliott Hill in September 2024. Hill’s story is genuinely different from his predecessor’s: he started in a Nike stockroom and built his entire career inside the company, earning credibility at every level. He speaks clearly and credibly about what went wrong and what needs to happen. And nearly two years into his tenure, Nike’s stock remains near $44 — roughly 75% below its peak —, and the company has not yet found its footing. In running — the category that gave Nike its identity — the brand no longer consistently appears in the top 10 for preferred shoes among dedicated runners. In China, sales are down 20–30% in recent quarters. On Cloud continues to grow at roughly 50% per quarter. The chart, as Tom notes throughout this episode, always tells the story: if a real recovery is underway, you will see it in the price action. The current chart does not yet show that. What This Means for Your Retirement Portfolio Tom closes this episode with a point that connects the Nike story directly to retirement investing: when someone tells you that a proven model is outdated — that index funds are so last century, or that some new product captures market upside without any downside — the right questions are always the same. What is the process? Has it been tested across different market conditions? And who benefits when you believe in it? The investor who abandons a sound income strategy during a period of volatility, convinced by a compelling narrative, is making the same error Donahoe made. The fundamentals that built something durable do not become wrong because someone new arrived with a different set of lenses. Key Takeaways Know what your business — or portfolio — is actually built on. The moment Nike shifted focus from technical performance products, competitors filled the gap. Investors face the same risk when strategies drift from the principles that made them work. Never surrender your shelf space. Giving up distribution is almost impossible to reverse. The same principle applies when investors abandon a proven income strategy during volatility — re-entry is rarely seamless. Leadership bias is one of the most expensive mistakes in business. Donahoe was an outstanding digital executive who ran a physical consumer company through a digital lens. Bias in a CEO or a portfolio manager costs real money. Boards exist to prevent catastrophic decisions. Most don’t. Nike’s board approved a strategy that effectively fired its wholesale customer base. Institutional oversight is only as good as the willingness to ask uncomfortable questions. Consumer loyalty, once transferred, is remarkably sticky. Runners who found HOKA or On Cloud did not come back. When you give a customer a reason to try something else, and they love it, you may have lost them permanently. Recovery from a foundational strategic error takes far longer than the error itself. The damage from a few years of bad decisions can take a decade to undo — in business and in retirement portfolios. Proven strategies deserve skepticism about replacement, not abandonment. When a new model sounds compelling, the questions are always: what’s the process, has it been tested, and who benefits from your belief in it? Frequently Asked Questions What caused Nike’s stock to fall from $180 to around $44? Nike’s decline was driven primarily by a strategic pivot under CEO John Donahoe, who took over in 2020 and aggressively reduced the company’s reliance on wholesale partners in favor of a direct-to-consumer digital model. This freed up shelf space for competitors like HOKA and On Cloud, whose products consumers tried, preferred, and stayed with. Nike also lost focus on technical product innovation — the foundation of the brand — and the combination proved very difficult to reverse. What leadership lessons can retirement investors take from Nike’s decline? The Nike story illustrates several principles that apply directly to managing retirement assets: proven strategies should not be abandoned in favor of untested new models; losing touch with core fundamentals creates compounding damage; and when someone tells you the old approach is outdated, the right question is always whether the new approach has been tested and who benefits from your belief in it. Why did Nike’s wholesale withdrawal strategy fail? Nike believed consumers would migrate online and that eliminating wholesale intermediaries would improve margins. What actually happened was that vacated shelf space went to competitors — HOKA, On Cloud, New Balance, ASICS, and Brooks — who earned consumer loyalty through it. Once runners found a shoe they preferred, they did not switch back. Nike also lost the critical feedback loop that specialty running retailers provided. Who is Elliott Hill and can he turn Nike around? Elliott Hill replaced John Donahoe as Nike CEO in September 2024. Unlike his predecessor, Hill spent his entire career at Nike, starting at the lowest rungs and earning his way up. He is widely regarded as credible and clear-eyed about the challenges. However, nearly two years into his tenure, Nike has not yet regained meaningful traction — illustrating how much harder recovery is than the original damage.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Nostalgia is picking up momentum across branding, fashion, entertainment, and culture, and Mike Brevik thinks brands that ignore it are missing one of the most powerful tools available. In this solo episode, he explores why consumers are craving familiarity and emotional connection in a world moving at digital speed, with real examples from HOMAGE, Roots of Fight, and Nike. Mike also walks through the Cracker Barrel rebrand backlash, the evolution of fast-food giants, and why thrift culture and movie remakes aren't accidents. The challenge he leaves with every listener: stop chasing trends blindly, start looking at what genuinely excites you, and build a brand rooted in authenticity, memory, and personal connection. KEY TAKEAWAYS Nostalgia sells a feeling, not just a product. Brands like HOMAGE and Roots of Fight have built loyal followings by connecting customers to something they can't get anywhere else. Looking at what's worked in the past isn't a lazy creative move. It's a smart one, because it already has a proven track record. Blending in is the real risk. The brands that last are the ones that found their own identity and stayed rooted in it. Before you rebrand, ask what's actually broken. Evolve what needs evolving, but don't throw out the thing that got you here. The best starting point for nostalgic branding is you. What genuinely excites you will come across as authentic, and that's what builds real connection. Links and Resources cyberdogzmarketing.com brandretro.com rootsoffight.com homage.com KEYWORDS nostalgia marketing, brand nostalgia, retro branding, nostalgic brand strategy, brand authenticity, HOMAGE apparel, Roots of Fight, brand evolution, vintage branding, retro marketing, emotional marketing, Mike Brevik, Cyberdogz, Brand Retro podcast, retro culture, brand identity, authentic brand building, nostalgic consumer trends, brand storytelling, how to build a brand EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS [00:02:17 - 00:03:24] Mike explains how HOMAGE Apparel sells nostalgia as a feeling, not just a product. [00:03:48 - 00:04:30] What makes Roots of Fight's retro brand strategy so effective and authentic. [00:07:50 - 00:08:13] Why drawing from the past is a genius move, not a lazy one. [00:09:18 - 00:10:07] The danger of building a brand that looks like everybody else. [00:10:26 - 00:11:28] The Cracker Barrel rebrand: what happens when you fix something that wasn't broken. [00:14:03 - 00:15:09] How Nike added sub-brands and athlete stories without disrupting the Swoosh. [00:15:51 - 00:17:08] Practical advice: start with what genuinely excites you, then build from there. [00:18:25 - 00:19:43] Why nostalgia is only safe marketing when it's authentic, not when it's forced.

Final Day Update — Augusta

This week on Group Chat, Zach White returns and the crew goes deep on Nike's earnings disaster and why the brand has become culturally irrelevant. From losing China to getting outpaced by Salomon and Arc'teryx, the guys break down what went wrong and whether the Swoosh can recover. OpenAI just acquired TBPN, a tech podcast, for a reported $200M+ after only 18 months. The crew breaks down why 70K viewers of the right people is worth more than millions of the wrong ones, and what it means for the future of media acquisitions. Kanye sold out two nights at SoFi for the first time in LA since 2019. 45 songs, Lauryn Hill, Travis Scott, and $18M on night one alone. Is cancel culture officially dead? The crew debates what it means when the most controversial artist in the world sells out the biggest venue in the city. Plus: the Artemis moon launch, the moon landing conspiracy debate (the crew votes), a GCP fan builds a SaaS product from a pod tip, Dee builds a baseball swing analyzer on a Duffy boat, and Venice is the new West Hollywood.

Amid a pro reset in Eugene and a new flag next to his name, Charles Hicks is aiming his firepower at the marathon.Stanford's first NCAA individual cross-country champion turned Nike pro joins the show amidst a change. He's shifting his firepower to the roads and is making his marathon debut at the TCS New York City Marathon on November 2, 2025.He trains in Eugene with Nike's Swoosh TC (launched Feb. 7, 2025) and has been based there since 2023. He's also fresh off a USATF 10 Mile title in Washington, D.C., set in course-record time. On the track, you've seen the range: 13:09 indoors for 5k and 27:33 for 10k at “The Ten.” Now, he's translating that speed into 26.2 on one of the world's toughest courses.He's also a two-time European U23 XC champion ('21 Dublin, '22 Turin) and the European U23 5000m champion ('23 Espoo). And there's a timely wrinkle: World Athletics now lists him under the United States after switching from GBR, opening fresh conversations about U.S. teams and majors.Charles also co-founded Scholarly, a platform that links applicants with successful students' essays and insights.

What a week in the world of golf and sneakers. We're back with a loaded episode covering everything from the Ryder Cup to Nike's biggest moves in the game.We kick things off with Nike Golf's activation at Nike NYC – House of Innovation, where the team brought the energy with custom pieces, content creation, and a vision that keeps pushing the sport forward. We break down how Nike's marketing squad continues to set the pace, especially with their knockout 1 vs. 2 spot that had the golf world buzzing.From there, we take you inside the Eastside Golf launch party for their brand-new “Sky” collab with Nike, share what went down, and give our official rankings of the shoes.And of course, it wouldn't be a fall golf pod without Ryder Cup talk. We dive into how Team USA fared, the atmosphere and crowds, and how Nike's roster of athletes performed on the big stage.Overall, an epic week for the pod with groundbreaking activations, culture-shifting collaborations, and Ryder Cup fireworks.

When it comes to recognizable icons, few rival Nike's Swoosh, designed by student designer Carolyn Davidson for $35. We unpack her quiet career, late recognition, and lasting influence with guest Sarah Williams, Co-CEO of Beardwood & Co. and President of AIGA NY._______Support this podcast with a small donation: Buy Me A CoffeeThis show is powered by branding and design studio  Nice PeopleJoin this podcast and the Patreon community: patreon.com/womendesignersyoushouldknowHave a 1:1 mentor call with Amber Asay: intro.co/amberasay_______About Carolyn Davidson:We're pulling back the curtain on one of design's most enduring marks: the Nike Swoosh. In 1971, Portland State University student Carolyn Davidson sketched a fluid, wing-like “stripe” directly over a shoe drawing—a fast, simple symbol that Phil Knight didn't love at first but chose under production pressure. She invoiced $35, kept freelancing for the scrappy company as it rebranded from Blue Ribbon Sports to Nike, and later stepped away from the spotlight. Years afterward, Nike surprised her with a gold Swoosh ring and stock—an act of overdue recognition that grew to life-changing value. We trace Davidson's process, her broader early contributions beyond the logo, and how the Swoosh eventually stood alone without the wordmark. About Sarah Williams:Sarah Williams is Co-CEO of Beardwood & Co. and President of AIGA New York. She joined Beardwood early (2006) after starting at Landor and rose to co-owner, leading brand programs for companies like Danone and Colgate while advancing mentorship and access across the NYC design community.Follow Sarah:Instagram: @_sarah_aw_Beardwood & Co Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/beardwoodco/https://beardwood.com/ ____View all the visually rich 1-min reels of each woman on IG below:Instagram: Amber AsayInstagram: Women Designers Pod

En el Radar Empresarial de hoy analizamos la subida de precios que va a llevar a cabo Nike. El fabricante de zapatillas aumentará el coste de sus productos en medio de la incertidumbre provocada por los aranceles. ¿Cómo se llevará a cabo esta medida y a que productos afectarán? Según la CNBC, el mayor incremento se verá en las zapatillas que cuestan más de 150 dólares, que subirán de media unos 10 dólares. Los productos menos perjudicados serán la ropa y el equipo Nike para adultos, que tendrán una subida mínima de 2 dólares. Aunque según fuentes familiarizadas con el asunto, esta nueva política podría comenzar el próximo 1 de junio, las primeras subidas podrían verse esta misma semana. Nike con esta medida sigue los pasos de otras compañías como Walmart, que anunciaron que incrementarían los precios por los aranceles aunque el fabricante de material deportivo ha apuntado que realizaron ajustes de precios como parte de su planificación estacional. Además, la compañía también ha anunciado que volverá a vender sus productos en Amazon. Después de que en 2019 anunciara que dejaría de vender en la plataforma para centrarse en otros mercados minoristas, la empresa busca ahora recuperarse de unos malos años en ventas. La marca sigue pagando caro el año de la pandemia: entonces los ingresos fueron de 37.000 millones de dólares. Los resultados, eso sí, han ido mejorando hasta superar los 50.000 millones de dólares. A pesar de ello, la compañía sigue estando lejos de sus “días de gloria”, por eso el 14 de octubre del año pasado Nike anunció un nuevo CEO. Elliot Hill tomó los mandos de la compañía. Hill era un viejo conocido de la marca, ya que empezó como becario de la marca en 1988. Hill fue escalando posiciones hasta retirarse como jefe de operaciones comerciales y de marketing en el año 2020. Además, la compañía se ve inmersa en un proceso de reestructuración para recuperar su valor, que cayó por llevar una estrategia errónea. Nike es una compañía fundada por Phil Knight y Bill Bowerman en 1964. Al principio se llamaba "Blue Ribbons Sports" pero en 1971 se convirtió oficialmente en Nike. El logo utilizado por la marca se llama Swoosh y fue usado por primera vez también ese año. La compañía fue pionera también por la apuesta por los deportistas, para convertirlos en imagen y seña de la marca. Dentro de estos, el más famoso es Michael Jordan, cuya colaboración empezó en 1984.

In this bonus drop, we break down Scottie Scheffler's dominant win at Quail Hollow and what it means for his place in golf history. We also dive into the fresh Nike ad that dropped right after his victory — the tone, the storytelling, and how it positions Scottie as the face of modern golf. Tap in for instant reactions, Swoosh-style analysis, and a celebration of one of the game's elite.

Una cosa es alinearse globalmente con lo que una marca internacional dicta, lo entendemos, pero otra muy distinta es querer aplicar la misma fórmula esperando a que funcione en el mercado local, así, por arte de magia, sin conocer a tus consumidores, sin una conversación que permita un intercambio de ideas, porque al final, las marcas podrán tener una influencia muy grande, pero gran parte de ella viene directamente del dinero de las personas que la compran.Aunque parece rebuscando y quisquilloso, Air Max Day siempre se trató de la comunidad, de los amantes del aire, antes del fashion, del arte contemporáneo y el reggeatón el impacto cultural (impulsado por Nike) ya estaba ahí.Este año hubo mucho festejo, mucha opulencia, mucho músculo para demostrar que el Swoosh tiene el poder de convocatoria capaz de dejar fuera a medio número de invitados y salir bien librado, al menos en las menciones de sus influencers, porque a fuera de esa burbuja pasa otra cosa y de eso hablamos en este episodio.

(airdate: 2.19.25) Skims and Nike are coming together to brand athletic underwear, do you think it will affect the price? You know, two of the most overpriced companies coming together to print a Swoosh logo on polyester. A spin off of "Blue Bloods" is in the works focussing on Donnie Wahlberg's character Danny Reagan.

I've become a better coach because I have the opportunity to work with these pro women and I'm excited to continue to get better, learn from them, and make sure that they're at the center of everything that I do. My guest for today's episode is Diljeet Taylor. We had her on the show last fall after she won the NCAA Cross Country Championships with her BYU women. For those of you who aren't familiar, she's one of the most transformative coaches in the sport. She's built BYU's women's cross country program and distance program into a national powerhouse, coaching NCAA champions, Olympians, and creating one of the strongest cultures in collegiate running. Now she's stepping into an even bigger role, leading a professional training group with Nike while continuing to coach at BYU. Nike has announced Swoosh TC for Oregon, Utah, and Arizona. It's being described by the brand as a network of elite athletes, coaches, and innovators working together to push the boundaries of performance and progress. Coach Taylor will oversee the Utah division, Jerry Schumacher will head Oregon along with Shalane Flanagan, and Mike Smith will lead the club in Arizona beginning in July 2025 in partnership from Rachel Smith. In this conversation, we make sense of what all of that means.  We get into the behind-the-scenes details of her new role, how she's balancing coaching, both collegiate and professional athletes, and what it takes to develop elite runners at the highest level. We also touch on the mindset of success, the importance of culture, and the transition from NCAA to professional racing.

In this episode I talk about the making of sneaker of the year lists and the criticism they get and why I believe that anyone creating lists like this should embrace the debate. That leads to the main segment which is about how fandom is changing in sneakers and all other niches. I talk about how it's becoming more tribalistic and how that affects the state of criticism and feedback in this modern digital age. There's also a special announcement!

Episode Summary:  Menina interviews Swoosh, who began dancing at age four, inspired by Michael Jackson. He recalls teaching himself dance through TV, as dance wasn't as accessible in the UK during the 80s. His passion grew through family performances and school talent shows. Encouraged by a school teacher, Swoosh started taking dance seriously after a successful school talent show performance. He pursued formal training in ballet, contemporary, and jazz, expanding his skills and understanding of dance technique, which shaped his professional journey. Swoosh formed Flawless, a now-famous dance group, starting as a boys-only club at his school. He valued mentality over ability in selecting members. Flawless trained hard, won their first UK championship, and continued to excel in international competitions, including the USA vs. UK championship. Swoosh reflects on Flawless' rise to global fame after their appearance on Britain's Got Talent, which led to sold-out tours and a larger fanbase. Flawless has since expanded from a core group to an academy, training the next generation of dancers. Swoosh embraced TikTok during the pandemic, growing his following by bulk-creating content and collaborating with celebrities. He highlights the importance of using social media strategically to build a personal brand and advises dancers to focus on their unique qualities. Swoosh encourages dancers to embrace their individuality and purpose. He emphasizes building consistent content for social media, using personality to stand out, and staying true to oneself in auditions. Swoosh closes with words of encouragement, urging dancers to stay authentic and focused on their purpose. Menina thanks him for his insights, concluding the episode on a hopeful note for future collaborations.
