Thanks. Good to know. As another poster pointed out, it couldn’t have been that great for Nike if they didn’t do more ads with Kaepernick since then.

Nike saying that the football non-player did not affect them is so disingenuous that it makes me not trust their sneakers.

Furthermore, Gillette will get the best shave in their lives on the bottom line.

You called it. From what I understand, Nike reported higher overseas and "less than full retail price" sales in their financial statements. They've also expanded on-line as they work hard to gloss over the backlash.
