Lebron addresses the haters and speculators in this new Lebron damage control Nike commercial...
My views on Lebron went from bad to worse with his recent move to Miami, but honestly after this commercial I have the utmost respect for the man. Because in the end it's just a game, and who are we to judge this man on his career moves? Really great commercial at a very pivotal time in Lebron's life and career.
And I'm sorry but does Nike double as a PR firm now?? Because they are succeeding as one, especially after the Tiger Woods commercial last Spring. Guess they just realize that when their athletes 'win' then win.
Foot Locker's new "It's a Sneaker Thing" ad campaign has be pretty funny thus far, and connecting with their sneaker head market quite well. This is their latest commercial, Butter Shoes...
Not so laugh out loud funny but when I saw it, I just thought that this is a dumb conversation Meezy and I would have. Cause when we are chilling and a girl in Crocs walks by, it's not pretty.
Kinda wish they picked something sexier than some Free running shoes for the girl in the commercial to wear though. Oh well, could be worse.
Sadly to a lot of kids he is more known for the Air Griffey Max sneakers, but growing up on Griffey, this is definitely the end of an era in baseball to me. Farewell and thank you, to the man with the sweetest swing ever.
To promote the great combination of Nike Free and Nike+ technologies, Nike has gotten together with Japanese break beat masters, HIFANA for a great commercial that will just tickle your ear drums...
I love the advisory at the end of the video that "Shoes sold at retail will NOT make music when bent or twisted".
GET FAMILIAR:
Nike Free is an amazingly comfortable technology used in some Nike Running soles that allows for complete movement in all directions of the foot (as you saw in the video). In being far more flexible, Free technology is meant to train your foot to move more like you are running barefoot. Barefoot running is the most efficient way we can run (not a coincidence that runners from places like Kenya win marathons) but the average foot is so used to having sneakers protect it that if we just started running barefoot we would tear muscles and really mess up our feet. Nike Free is the solution to this. Work your way from a 7.0 to a 3.0 and you'll be barefoot in no time.
Nike+ (plus) is a technology for runners to connect their shoes to their iPod/ iPhone or a wristband to track their running stats. You just upload your info to a computer after a run and you can see times, distances, and calories, as well as a progress report and people to challenge in Nike+ communities. Basically "the worlds biggest run club". Pretty cool stuff.
Together these technologies basically create the ideal and most advanced run shoe out.
One of my Nike comrades sent me over this new commercial that Nike did, and even tho it already seems to be on every blog in existence, it's pretty damn impressive...
"Everybody gets knocked down, how quick are you to get up?"
Nike, Jordan, and Gatorade commercials continue to outdo themselves. Personifies athletes and competition to perfection.
