flag Australians are switching from Nike to Adidas and New Balance for better innovation, authenticity, and performance, driving sales shifts in 2025.

flag Australians are shifting from Nike to Adidas and New Balance due to demands for innovation, authenticity, and performance. flag Nike’s Australian sales fell to $891.2 million in 2025, its second straight year of decline, with slim profit losses tied to repetitive designs and collaborations. flag Adidas grew sales 5.3% to $452.19 million and profits surged to $26 million, boosted by soccer heritage and high-profile partnerships like the Grace Wales Bonner Samba. flag New Balance gained popularity by rebranding from "dad shoes" to a stylish, performance-focused label through luxury collaborations. flag Puma, however, saw sales drop 14.1% to $183.96 million and nearly $16 million in losses, struggling to define its identity. flag Consumers now favor brands that blend heritage with innovation and cultural relevance.
