So collaborations and with hip hop artists and graffiti artists aren't attempts at catering to the urban crowd? really? That's aimed at the soccer moms right?
sponsoring Rory Mcleroy and Tiger Woods is aimed at the urban fashion crowd right?
We can do this all day, because Nike is a brand that targets several different demographics
And one of those demographics (a major one at that) is the urban demographic. If we're talking about dominance as the thread title says, we gotta be clear on what is being dominated. If we're just talking about urban leather jackets, ok. Pelle Pelle might have that (I don't pay any attention to this market, I'm from Los Angeles
). If we're talking about urban fashion in general, Nike has that locked up and no one is even close to it.

So is McDonald's Urban Cuisine? Based on your logic it should be considered that.

I see what you are saying, but this particular thread is asking about an Urban brand and if it's still dominant. If a brand is dominant it shouldn't only be limited to a region and a season either. Ninja already admitted that Pelle Pelle is a one trick pony, so in an essence he answered his own question.

being a one trick pony is great if da one trick you do is better then 99% of your competitors..look at Mariano Rivera..one pitch.
and to be fair, da rest of their line that isn't leathers isn't terrible, i just personally wouldn't rock it cuz i like my graphic tees with a different set of designs, and
as far as jeans i only mess with levis these days.
