For us oldies who remember the original Milky Bar adverts of the 80s, it was pronounced Nessells.

[Samie]

The first ever recorded pronunciation of 'Nike' (and so the correct one) was on the 3rd of September 1885, in the bar of The Palace Saloon, in Hill Valley, California.

That pronunciation was 'Nee-Kay'.

So there.

You're thinking about the name of the Japanese stock exchange for fucks sake.

Yes. For those of you who are old enough to have dementia, it is pronounced Nessells.

But is it pronounced Vall-ee, Vall-ay, Valle or what?

Which was a little bit after the ancient Greeks.

[rob1966]

I mean without sounding like a wool bellend. It is Nike-y. They told me in Marathon.

She was the goddess of strength, speed and victory.

Since when have the Yanks ever used a proper pronunciation?

[oojason]

There's not too much available on the club website either...

Unless you fancy spending Ł50 on a t-shirt, or Ł43 on a polo shirt

https://store.liverpoolfc.com/lfc-nike-mens-red-modern-polo


and people wonder why so many still opt for the 'dodgy' tops and kits - or go with the local shops and online for some something different like https://twitter.com/hatscarforabadg

I see, but all it says is coming soon for all the merchandise. Other retailers don't even have it on their website yet, so I'm wondering when the release date is for US.

I knew mentioning Nestle would be a good way to take people's minds off the teal stripe.

It is on Dicks website. Available for purchase 8/6

So I'm assuming August 6th is the date for all retailers. cheers

[owens_2k]

Really good work. Some poor bastard had to sit there and edit out all the New Balance in this ad though 

Like the underarmour ball on the main stand which they covered up with a sticker haha

[KingKolo]

Ad game from Nike is on point.

No doubt about that.

I enjoyed the 'School of Rock' reference

[Ravishing Rick Dude]

it's Nikey/Nikee, according to Phil Knight - co-founder of Nike

He doesn't know shit

[JoeCole]

Are they already selling it in the club stores? Saw before they had the promo images up but I didn't wanna queue up just to get in and find out it was just a pre-order. Had been assuming its release was Aug 6 given the order dates on the website.

Also if they are already selling it anyone know if either of the stores in town have had the vapour shirts in, or if they're sold out like on the site?

[cashmere pringle]

Do elaborate

having your own culture sold back to you ..

OK, its more an irritation than all thats wrong in the world, there are plenty of serious issues to worry about but the corporate machine pretending to be part of streets up culture leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

the clash said it best:
turning rebellion into money.

[Fordy]

So Klopp will be wearing Nike training grear with Addias trainers.

Shocked Nike didn't get Klopp and the coaching team to agree to wear their footwear.

Maybe, Klopp is off to manage Germany or Munich or something soon.

Ahh I see. I retract my 'Lol, whut?' comment.

Shocked they didn't tie the two deals together like NB did.

[Dim Glas]

Maybe they tried, and just thought it was a given, but then lost out.

Nike used to sponsor Klopp when he was at Mainz, they didn’t used to pay him back then 

Big coup for Adidas though, with them being a German company. He’s racking up the Bavarian deals at the moment, what with them and Erdinger.

[red_Mark1980]

He doesn't know shit

You're right. Unless you're talking about how to build a business from importing shoes from Japan into a global brand that overtakes all the major sporting brands in a very short amount of time

Bavaria you say? He's leaving us for Bayern isn't he?!

[smutchin]

You'd think with that kind of business acumen he'd know how to pronounce the name of his own company. I mean. that's the basics, surely?

What car is Jurgen driving these days? Let me guess...

[Dim Glas]

yeah defo German 

At least Opel are from close to his adopted home of Mainz!

[Pensby]

But are the trainees pronounced a-dee-das or adi-das?

I'll get me coat
