If you’re not offended by the partnership deal between Nike and DM to promote woman's sportswear, please scroll on, this is not the thread for you.

If you are offended, please tell Nike by using the Feedback option on their website https://www.nike.com/ It’s at the bottom of the page.

There have been a few threads on this topic that have been deleted already, I’m not posting this for debate, as it will be deleted too. Just post “done” once you’ve told Nike how you feel (in 250 characters or less)..

Will definitely be moving on to Adidas and Under Armour from now on. I won't buy my son any more Nike products.

Just read this interesting article about what may be going on with companies using DM in their advertising.
Looks like the Stonewall scheme but for advertising.

CEI advertising index

Such an interesting read; thanks for sharing.

How can people really go against the big (ginormous) machines in the background? The population is literally programmed to think how they want. The ordinary person is so bogged down with life, how is it possible to even have a say in stuff like this? Everything is controlled: from media to voting.

Maybe we’ll see a trans man with no sporting connection whatsoever modelling their jockstraps? No, thought not

RightOnTheEdge · 09/04/2023 14:29

Done ✔️

AlwaysGinPlease · 09/04/2023 14:30

I wouldn't touch UA either. Avid supporters and advocates of trophy hunting and all around reprehensible dickwads.

AuntieStella · 09/04/2023 14:36

The most recent I can find about Under Armour and trophy hunting is from 2018. Do they still sponsor hunters?

Broadbeachshallow · 09/04/2023 14:45

You can buy sportswear for women from women-owned companies. I have a great swimsuit and hiking shorts from Carve Designs. Would love to hear suggestions from other posters.

I haven't bought Nike since the child labour outrage years ago.

Done.

Just shows that Nike think sport for women is fashion and all about appearances.

By being willing to speak out again and again, to be censored and still speak out. To be willing to stand firm when you’re being called all sorts of names. To live your life differently to what people want you to (and people will be nasty about it). But stand firm knowing you’re being truthful and not buying into the control and censorship designed to benefit the few )which never inc women)

Thank you.

I can't find what they have done?

wiffin · 09/04/2023 16:56

Done.

Iamnotsoexcited · 09/04/2023 16:57

Done. I asked them to go and watch the Always advert “like a girl”. Will never buy Nike again.

L1ttledrummergirl · 09/04/2023 16:58

How many football clubs use Nike to make their sportswear? Maybe time to try to get the women's England team to change their manufacturer for a start.
Perhaps make your feelings known to the management team there as well.

Knackerelli · 09/04/2023 17:21

I wanted more space to write my reasons why!
