We know Nike, as a top-tier brand, is more than just a company that sells shoes and clothes. It represents everything (or most things!) sports and exercise, innovation, and motivation. Sure, it’s one of the world’s most recognizable brands, but don’t get it twisted: no one is immune to changing tastes and competitive ankle-biting.

When it comes to small appliances, there are gadgets and gizmos aplenty (to quote The Little Mermaid), but shoppers are smart about what products they let become a part of their world (c’mon, I had to).

Trends have always been a big way to engage and convert customers. From new sofa styles to sports shoe innovations, trends hit that “I want it, even if I don’t absolutely need it right now” feeling that drives so much discretionary spending for customers.
