12. Nike has historically had some of the most
cutting-edge products on the market.
For example, Nike teamed up with Apple and
launched the “Nike + iPod” line of products.
This technology allows consumers to connect
their iPod devices to sensors inside the shoes to
record time, distance, pace, and calories burned.

13. Due to cheap labor in foreign countries, Nike outsources virtually
all production to other areas of the world.
This behavior has become an industry standard, with all major
competitors also outsourcing production.
Consequently, no competitor has a major advantage in
manufacturing

14. One of Nike’s most revolutionary technologies comes through its
footwear cushioning.
Nike has patents on four cushioning technologies:
Nike Air / Nike Zoom / Nike Air Max / Nike Shox
Although some of Nike’s earlier patents are beginning to expire, they still
hold patents on the newer technologies

15. Nike is the single largest producer of athletic footwear and apparel,
allowing them large cost advantages over competition
Larger companies tend to have major economies of scale over smaller
companies in areas such as distribution and marketing.
Nike is so large that many of the company’s suppliers depend on Nike to
remain in business.
