Brand spotlight: Nike

Nike Corporate Apparel

Nike is one of the world’s most famous brands. Whether you’re wearing custom Nike apparel on the streets of New York or in a rural Zimbabwean village, people immediately recognize the company’s distinctive “swoosh” logo. Nike corporate apparel is extremely popular and of consistently high quality, making Nike gear a natural choice for promotional marketing. 

The History of Nike

In 1964, Bill Bowerman, track and field coach for the University of Oregon, partnered with former student Phil Knight to found Blue Ribbon Sports. Blue Ribbon Sports opened its first retail outlet in 1966, and in 1972 launched the Nike shoe brand. By 1978, the company had renamed itself Nike after the ancient Greek goddess of victory. The company went public in 1980. 

Today, Nike has retail outlets and distributors in over 170 countries. A wide range of athletes has endorsed Nike over the years, including Michael Jordan, Roger Federer, Tiger Woods, and Mia Hamm. 

Custom Nike Apparel

Custom Nike apparel offers significant ROI for promotional marketers. For starters, you get to link your brand to an internationally recognizable logo, linking the two logos with each new impression. Nike corporate apparel is known for its high quality, demonstrating that you value quality goods and only link your logo to exceptional products. Nike’s brand is associated with active lifestyles, athletics, and action, which you can also use to your brand’s advantage. Below are some of the most popular choices for custom Nike apparel:

Nike Golf T-Shirts

Nike Golf T-shirts work well as gym gear and athleisure wear and are designed for active lifestyles. Each of these four Nike Golf T-shirts displays the brand’s trademark “swoosh” on the left sleeve or chest, leaving plenty of room for your logo:

• The Men’s Core Cotton Tee is made of pure cotton for all-day comfort and lasting wear with a durable rib-knit crew neck and double-needle stitching. 
• The Ladies’ Core Cotton Scoop Neck Tee is made from 100 percent ring-spun cotton with a heat transfer label for tag-free comfort.

Custom Golf Shirts

Nike gold shirts for men and women are a common sight on golf courses internationally. These smart polos make excellent branded gifts, and also work well as casual work uniforms:

• The Dri-Fit Micro Pique Polo is one of the most popular Nike golf shirts for men. The polo is engineered with patented Dri-FIT fabric to provide moisture management technology, and the contrast Swoosh design trademark is embroidered on the left sleeve.

Custom Nike Sweatshirts

Branded outerwear is always a valued gift, especially when it’s made by Nike. Custom Nike sweatshirts are year-round wardrobe essentials due to their streetwise design and soft, comfortable fit. If you want to make an impression with personalized outerwear, consider the following custom Nike sweatshirts:

Custom Nike Hats

Custom Nike hats are ideal for promotional marketing on a budget. They’re affordable but still offer high-quality design and construction, coupled, of course, with that iconic “swoosh.” Use custom Nike hats as thank yous to clients, customer giveaways, or pair with custom Nike golf shirts to put the finishing touch on a work uniform.
