  1. Google trend is neat. For the Nike haters, you will need to hate
    harder, they are still the most popular by far. Nope, I don't use them,
    just rustling some feathers. 😉

  2. Interesting that I dont see a strong seasonal effect for these or for
    "running"
    like you see for "gyms". Gyms peaks on New Years and again in the
    late
    spring. I thought running would be similar.

    Maybe because the majority of Nike wearers aren't wearing them for
    anything other than a fashion statement.

    Puma, even more so.

    Although I've got two pair of Nikes and one of Puma in my rotation,
    because they're just terrific shoes in which to run.

    Put me in the minority, then. As for cushioning, I have never found
    anything that compares to the Nike air ride. I love it.

    We're all in the minority. We're runners.

  7. This just shows the number of hits for Nike - it demonstrates little more.

    But this is fun (see the similarity between Nike and Fashion):
