In the next round of their tussle to be the world's biggest sports brand there is everything to play for. Nike currently owns 14.6 percent of the global sporting goods market to Adidas' 11.4 percent, and is whittling away at the German brand's No. 1 position in Europe. Adidas held 13.2 percent of the western European sporting goods market in 2012 to Nike's 12.4 percent, according to Euromonitor data. "It's not easy to evaluate (next year's) collections. Adidas is definitely putting a lot of effort into winning lost ground, but a company like Nike won't rest on its laurels," said Hans Allmendinger, head of marketing for German sporting goods retailer Sport2000. It has strong partnerships setting it up well for the coming challenge: a close relationship with German club Bayern Munich, of which it owns 9 percent, and with FIFA, soccer's world governing body, for whom it designs official World Cup kit. Adidas has forecast record 2014 soccer sales of over 2 billion euros and aims to boost group sales to 17 billion euros in 2015. But already it has several major partnerships with clubs, including English champions Manchester United. The owner of the distinctive 'swoosh' or tick logo, does not give forecasts for individual sport categories, but it is predicting group sales of up to $30 billion by 2015 suggesting it thinks it can put in a sufficiently strong performance during the World Cup to stretch its global lead over the German company and maybe beat it at home too. In Nike's first fiscal quarter of 2013, ended August31, it posted an 8 percent jump in sales in Europe. Over the same period, Adidas' European sales fell 7 percent. Brazil have won the World Cup a record five times and the country is a byword for stylish soccer, meaning there is a huge buzz around the tournament and Nike's designs. Adidas is aiming to make its presence felt with players like Lionel Messi and Mesut Ozil, who play for Adidas sponsored national teams Argentina and Germany and the launch of the official match ball, the "Brazuca" on sale for $160 but free to Brazilians born on its launch day. Given the scale of the battle however it will also be using what is politely known as "ambush marketing." Soccer watchers cite as an early example in this year's World Cup campaigns the launch of a new soccer top for the Palmeiras club in the yellow, green and blue worn by the Brazil national team. "That will be ruffling a few feathers," said Berenberg Bank analyst John Guy. "They've certainly got a few tactical moves up their sleeves to consolidate their position against Nike and that's good to see." Klaus Jost, president of the world's largest sportswear retailer Intersport, said Nike's roster of top soccer players like Frenchman Franck Ribery and Portugal's Cristiano Ronaldo was one of the reasons for Nike's increasing sales in Europe. "It's much more about creating the right image," he told Reuters. "Stars like Ribery, Ronaldo and (Zlatan) Ibrahimovic have such an attraction that many kids want to copy them." BIG STARS Big name endorsements are also responsible for Nike's broader success. brand has gained market share this year thanks to well designed, comfortable products such as the top selling Nike Free sneaker and getting its performance enhancing shoes on the feet of the biggest sports stars. Nike's impressive roster of sponsorship deals includes current names like soccer star Ronaldo, tennis player Roger Federer, golfers Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy and legendary track and field athletes like Carl Lewis and Michael Johnson. "Nike has done a really good job of presenting themselves as the true brand for performance," Tammy Smulder, managing director at marketing consultancy SCB Partners, told Reuters. "Nike says, 'We will be associated with the top athletes, whatever the sport'. You can't dispute that," she added. Adidas chief executive Herbert Hainer said this week the group had made some mistakes, but added: "We believe we can grow the business by launching a lot of new innovative products. Our pipeline of new products is full." One of the ways Adidas is hoping to grow sales is by using the cushioning technology in its Boost running shoes for other categories such as basketball. That could enable it to increase sales of Boost shoes to 15 million pairs in 2015, after having only introduced the line earlier this year.

Air Jordan 12 Taxi How To Decide If You Should Get A TattooUser Rating: / 0 PoorBest MiscellaneousWritten by Anonymous Tuesday, 08 June 2010 12:33 How To Decide If You Should Get A Tattoo Getting a tattoo isn't a complicated process, although you think about it well before you rush ahead to get one. Remember, once you get a tattoo it will be permanent, and you might regret having something you don't really like later on. Here are some tips to help you decide if you should get a tattoo:Know What You WantKnowing what you really want to get inked is very important, because something that may appeal to you at first glance may be something you'll grow tired of later on. You may find that a really cool design today will be nothing but a fad tomorrow. To prevent this from happening, you might want to consider getting a tattoo that not only looks good, but carries some special significance for you. It might help to show it off or hide it better. Whichever appeals to you, knowing where you want to have your tattoo done also lessens the risk of regretting it later. Knowing where you want your tattoo to be done and who does it is just as important as choosing what kind of tattoo you want and where you want it. Factors like price, hygiene and sanitation, quality of work, and the popularity of the tattoo studio should help you decide. Since tattoos are performed by inserting needles into the skin to apply the design, it might carry the risks of contamination. If the shop is popular, it must be due to the excellent quality of work and outstanding service. Never trust messy and inexperienced artists to do your tattoos. If you plan on getting a tattoo before going to the beach the next day, it might not be a good idea. Bleeding might interfere with the end result of your tattoo. Aside from that, it's simply rude to go into a tattoo shop slightly disoriented and dazed. Remember to be courteous to the artist. Don't boss them around. Be polite. The artist is after all responsible for the look of your tattoo. Knowing that, you wouldn't want to piss him off now, would you?It is also important to set a schedule. You just can't go into a tattoo shop full of people and demand you get yours done as soon as possible. If you don't like waiting in line, (and who does?) setting a schedule will allow the artists to give you the best service they can. Getting a tattoo will hurt, but since people have different thresholds for pain, it generally varies. The pain really isn't so bad. Invest in some tattoo cream to quicken the healing during flaking periods. More importantly: never pick, scratch, or rub your tattoo vigorously.
