Most of the time I wear Red Wings.
Hey I’m wearing sketchers right now!
The running store I buy all my shoes and gear from barely carries Nike. I always let them bring me out a few different shoes that are good for my pronation and they have NEVER brought out a pair of Nike shoes. I've stayed pretty loyal to Brooks and Asics. I did try a pair of Mizuno that I didn't care for. I'm not bold enough to try a pair of Hoka's yet but I'm curious about those and On.and were garbage as a running shoe (for me at least.)
Love Asics, perfect for my running needs. Brooks great as well.The running store I buy all my shoes and gear from barely carries Nike.

Hookahs?Hokas are just wonderful on my bad knees. Bulky but easy on the joints. Used Brooks for years but much happier and pain-free now.
As for what I wear, I run a decent amount so I don't wear Nike or Adidas. I run in Asics or Brooks usually and then turn them into my daily wearers after they've logged too many miles.
My 17 year old son wears Adidas ultraboosts and Sperry's. He is a soccer player and does prefer Adidas soccer boots.
I'm an Adidas guy for the last 5 or so years. After raising two boys and still a 3rd I can tell you that you are spot on regarding athletic apparel. Other than my middle son who is in South Korea and in the Air Force my other two want to wear nothing but athletic apparel. Jeans are now considered dress up and are losing their appeal.It came up again in the recruiting Forum. So I thought I would bring it here so that it is not blocking up the AD thread.
I remember a few years ago I said that I was starting to see more intercity kids wearing adidas. I even related the story of a young man (who now is a college football player at Bowie State) who I asked why he wore adidas and not NIKE. His response was. "NIKE is my parents shoes. " Shoes and athletic apparel are every day wear to college kids now. adidas has done some very innovative things the last few years. adidas and assorted companies they own (reebok) have had an international growth of 17%. Nike growth less than 7% over the last 5 years. adidas is closing the gap. Especially among the youth crowd.
@HuskerWeatherman pointed out that the younger crowd in Austin wears a lot of adidas. One of the cool things that they have done is allow people to design their own shoes and clothes. So if you want pink shell toes with green stripes. You can get them.
Additionally they are plugging into inter city culture with Beyoncé Superstar https://www.adidas.com/us/beyonce and Kanye's Yeezy brands. https://news.adidas.com/yeezy.
I think that the one place NIKE still dominates is basketball. Where adidas dominates soccer.
So I just want to say that this whole issue of recruiting being down because of adidas. It is just a farce.
Skechers outlet in Omaha, get my walking shoes and dress shoes there. Otherwise I am Adidas.Hey I’m wearing sketchers right now!

K-swiss? You got a shell necklace and frosted tips to go along with them?Same here, I usually wear adidas or k-Swiss.
Lol nope I just like my white shoes. I don’t even like a smudge on them. Hey I grew up in the city. K-Swiss is big in urban areas. Never have worn a necklace or any jewelry nor have I ever dyed my hair. I should get Frosty tips!!!K-swiss? You got a shell necklace and frosted tips to go along with them?
Have you ever owned a pair of something like the Adidas Ultraboost/NMD line? Your NB or Sketchers really aren't even close lol.
