Animal-Print Athletic Shoes

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Nike Pocket Runner Animal Pack Adds Attitude to Athletic Shoes

— April 15, 2011 — Fashion
Women: do you wish your running shoes had a little more flair and attitude? If the answer to that question was yes, then the new Nike Pocket Runner Animal Pack is for you. Nike has redesigned their popular Pocket Runner with two new animal prints designed to give your athletic shoe closet a little more attitude.

The Nike Pocket Runner Animal Pack comes in three colors, all black pony hair, zebra and leopard. Each shoe will be made with Zoom Air cushioning and an Lunarlon sole designed to keep you running for longer. The Animal Pack may look a little bizarre, but when you think about it, it actually makes perfect sense. Women already have wild shoes like animal-print high heels, wedges and flats, so why not animal-print athletic shoes as well?
Trend Themes
1. Animal-print Athletic Shoes - As animal-prints become more popular in the fashion industry, athletic shoe brands should consider incorporating them into their designs to appeal to fashion-conscious customers.
2. Zoom Air Cushioning - Brands in the athletic industry should invest in incorporating new and innovative cushioning technologies into their shoe designs to appeal to customers who prioritize comfort and performance.
3. Gender-specific Athletic Shoes - Brands in the athletic industry should consider designing athletic shoe collections that cater to gender-specific needs and preferences, such as Nike's Pocket Runner Animal Pack for women.
Industry Implications
1. Athletic Footwear - Athletic footwear brands should consider incorporating animal-print designs and new cushioning technologies to appeal to fashion-conscious customers and those who prioritize comfort and performance, respectively.
2. Women's Footwear - Brands in the women's footwear industry should invest in designing shoes that cater to women's unique preferences and needs, such as athletic shoes with animal-print designs like Nike's Pocket Runner Animal Pack.
3. Sportswear - Sportswear brands should consider incorporating animal-print designs into their clothing and footwear collections to appeal to fashion-conscious customers who prioritize style and trendiness.
