NIKE PESTEL ANALYSIS ( Technology Analysis )


PESTEL Analysis:

We received a lecture in the morning about PESTEL analysis on fashion brands and to me it was quite confusing and difficult. We were supposed to pick a brand among market sectors and do this analysis. Our group decided to research on NIKE and each of us chose one part for example I did technology analysis on NIKE.

PESTEL analysis factors are Political, economical, social, technological, environmental and legal, which the last two factors added recently and are more common in United Kingdom.
During the class time I did research on Technological factor related to NIKE. In the below link I found a comprehensible meaning for technological factor in order to do it on selected brand.


Actually for technological factor we need to find the impact of technology on the products in the marketplace. Nike is one of those brands which applies technology tactics on its products and this is one of the reason it has kept its name in today market.

NIKE FREE 2014 RUNNING:

"By utilizing new technologies and the principles of natural motion, we 're really able to allow the foot to move for the runner in a way we 've never been able to do before," said Rob Dolan, Senior Footwear Design Director, NIKE Running.

The data came from sport research lab leaded to 2014 Running Collection. Three features of the collection are: Hexagonal Flex Grooves, Anatomical Shape and NIKE Flyknit Technology.












More information about each features and this collection can be found in the following link:

Before starting the research and this lesson I had no idea that technology has a great impact on fashion industry. I have learned a lot and I realized that any aspects of our life can be affected by development and enhancement of technology which we should appreciate it.
