As you all can see, this shoe is a totally new look for anything Nike has came out with in the past. Nike has always been viewed as an "athletic sporty" type of company, and it is definitely time to change this if we want to still see Nike in business in the near future.

Studies show that Nike's sales for women aged 15-30 are steadily decreasing. This is a HUGE portion of sales that we are missing out on.

With all of the attention we will get from this "understanding of women" we will find that women want more, more as in a new line of accessories, like handbags, jewelry, bedding, scarves, and, with a much needed update in the women's
