WOW! tt's a huge loss to Nike! though i'm nvr a big fan of Nike (go adidas!), but i sympathize with them for a loss of a huge star.

i dunno how famous he is in america, but my guess is tt a definite amount of Kidd fans will tag along to switch to his new sponsor, PEAK.
smart move by the Chinese actually, to tap on stars in US.
look at LiNing, it's sponsoring Shaq O'neal, all these little moves will eventually move these Chinese brands into global market.

This is great news for me, as I designed my own shoe line through PEAK. You can check out my work at (www myspace . com / hbathletics )or email me for pics at (kobimcintyre @ aol . com) My very first full production limited-run basketball shoe is the (HB: Aviator “All Things Fly”). It bears the PEAK logo on the bottom of the sole. HB stands for Hyper-boy athletics. The HB: Aviator sells for $35 with free delivery or shipping. Trust me he signed with them for a reason. They do have realy good designers. The quality and comfort is realy amaizing for a basketball shoe. Don’t sleep on the PEAK Son!!!!

Good for them. Kind of scary how a 'name' influences people.

huge loss for the swoosh, kidd has been wearing nike since his rookie years and nike have made a couple of footwear under his name.
