  • Roger Federer was Nike's golden child for 20 years. That's why in 2019, fans were shocked to learn his deal with Nike ended. This opened the door for a new brand to attach themselves to the GOAT. Enter, On Running. Over the last 5 years, the Swiss shoemaker has harnessed "The Roger Federer Effect" to boost sales and break into a new market. Here's how Roger Federer is making On Running the coolest brand in tennis.

      Nike's paying that mistake big time now as On is really eating up on their sales. I guess they thought they were too big to bow down to whatever RF was asking and thought he's washed up and in no position to negotiate hard. Serves them right now I think.

    Federer helped On take off but it's carrying itself actually. I bought the Roger Pro's originally for tennis. After my influencer bro got sponsored running shoes from them, I tried them out when my old Nikes wore out during a trip, switching from Nike Zoom X and React foam to Cloudmonster. While not as soft and plush as Nike foam, the energy rebound exceeds everything else noticeably. I was able to walk 30k steps on uneven road with minimal discomfort, and walking inside malls made every step feel bouncy at first. People who try On are repeat customers because of the product design.
    This is true of anything really. MK was very popular for awhile because of many celebrity endorsements. Once that wore off, it's gone the discount mass-market route because there really wasn't anything special about them.

      Kinda ironic because on’s quality is terrible. My dad bought on shoes and the bottom started to come off and he’s not even a runner or something. Also, look at Shelton when he’s playing, his clothing looks like it’s ultra sticky and low quality. Uni qlo is very good tho.

    Nike's sales has gone down for a long time. Their stocks are also down. Bad management for years! The only person who really brought up Nike was Michael Jordan! And even if he had shares (as part of the MJ's demands because he really wants Adidas from the start as it is more comfortable for his feet), the sales overall soared and Nike was in business for decades!

    I tried their Roger Pro tennis shoes... hands down the worst tennis shoes I ever owned. Very stiff and unforgiving, I developed strains everywhere, toes, soles, ankles, and knees. Never had these issues before. Got me thinking this shoe was probably a contributing factor in Rogers injury. Anyway, maybe the Roger Pro 2 is better. But this one is the worst mistake I've made to my body, in this game ever.

    • @Racketville
      @Racketville  Месяц назад +1

      @@user-lg3gy5xr9g yeah based on what I researched, the original Roger Pro was tough. Not enough support and too wide. I hope it didn’t contribute to Rogers injury, but I wouldn’t think Roger would take any risks with his body later in his career. Just goes to show how important the feet are in tennis!

      I guess even Adidas suffered with this when it comes to their daily running shoes. Professional atheletes have a different level of fitness and have different requirements as compared to the hobbyists. Their recent running shoes were designed by taking the professional athlete's needs/feedback into consideration I guess. Might have worked for the pros, but generally they were hated by the casual runners. Now they've started to tune the shoes to suit everyday runner's needs I feel.

    But honestly their logo sucks. Like for a long time I used to ask myself, what is this brand DQ iga and Ben are wearing. Only few weeks back I realised that you have to read it top to bottom. I would not pay premium for this brand if the quality is not worth the price.
