Nike's running shoes suck, to the point the mom and pop store where I get our shoes doesn't even carry them. Asics/Brooks (and to a lesser extent New Balance) blow Nike away from a quality standpoint, and if one is super into running and have the $$$ they can go for the mega high end specialty shoes, which isn't Nike.
As for t-shirts, shorts or the like, why pay the premium just to have the logo? Other brands are just as good, and often much less expensive.
actually, nike's got some very interesting designs that only come on their clothing. and i like them. if you were to actually shop around you'd notice there is quite a difference between some of nike/adidas/under armour and tekgear or whatever god awful off brand nonsense walmart sells
as for your question, i wear the following nike apperal: shoes, socks, shorts, tshirts, sweatshirts, hooded sweat shirts, hats, gloves, and jackets. new balance and asiscs might have them beat in the running shoe market, but they do not come close to blowing away nike in any other facet of the business.
not everyone buys things for the label, most of the time it just looks and feels alot better to wear than some clothing with an enlarged tilde as the symbol
uniforms are dope.
