Not a fan of Nike. I'm a big human rights person as much as I am a sports fan and I disapprove of A) charging hundreds of dollars of shoes that only got 12 dollars for manufacturing and materials and B) the treatment of the workers in their sweatshops which I also disapprove of.
Nike is notorious for the horrendous treatment of its workers. They beat them constantly, women are fired if they get pregnant and then there's the fact that workers are paid an average of 25 cents per pair of shoes they make.

I used to be obsessed with NIKE. I wore nike everything socks, wristbands, you get the picture, but then i bought one of their most expensive shoes ever sold. I paid close to $200 for them only to have them tear within a week twice. After returning them to the store once they refused to replace them a second time and told me to call the nike company to have them replaced. After spending almost a month on the phone I never spoke to a human being and just decided to quit trying and ate the 200 bucks. So now for me NIKE sucks and Phil Knight can screw himself. I only wear adidas now.

I don't buy Nike products because of the human rights thing everybody else is talking about. Their shoes also don't fit my feet correctly. I'm a tall girl with big feet and their size tens run too small. I buy New Balances.

It depends on the specific product. For instance, I currently own 2 pairs of Nike running shoes. One pair is the absolute best running shoe I think I've ever owned (Nike Air Max 36) while the other pair is probably the worst (I'm not sure the name of them...something with Jet Stream in it, I dunno). So I guess it just depends on the actual product and how it fits you. Everybody's different.

For what? Shoes? Their shoes are really comfortable but don't last. I like asiacs for shoes.

Their products are of good quality. Although, I hear that they have sweat shops and such. I am not sure about that one.
