Nike + Brazil: it’s Tiempo
Adrants reports Nike has launched a new football, pardon, “soccer” site called “Tiempo“. Created by Odopod and ourcommon, it is focused on the Brazilian culture, featuring the message “We are Brazilian. We play happy.”, and on the promotion of a new shoe, the Nike Air Legend FG. The site which has a typical Nike’s advertainment approach will further develop during the year, taking users around the world with the launch of new sections dedicated to Los Angeles (coming in February), Miami (coming in March) Dallas (in April) and New York City (in May).
Nike presents the “Chamber of Fear”
NBA player LeBron James stars in Nike’s latest campaign “Chamber of Fear,” which promotes James’ Air Zoom LeBron II shoe and are based on the 1978 Bruce Lee flick “Game of Death.” The Tv ad has been banned in China since it “violates regulations that mandate that all advertisements in China should uphold national dignity and interest and respect the motherland’s culture”. Nike has also created a complicate site and an online “Chamber of Fear” game.

I loved the expression Sean Finnegan, Digital Client Communications Director, OMD, used to comment Nike’s latest microsite featured in iMedia Connection’s showcase. Nike’s “Vapor Station” presents a futuristic online experience in which users can discover the Art of Speed videos, as well as the Vapor series shoes. You can’t miss it
Nike discovers the blog
Art of Speed is the blog Nike is about to launch showcasing a series of 15 short films on the theme of speed. The New York Times (free reg.) dedicates an article to the fact, collecting both positive and negative opinions. Some are skeptical that online readers will be interested in reading an advertorial blog. I tend to agree with this opinion, but I also believe that contents’ quality will be the key point users will look at in choosing what to read or avoid.
