Out of all items, across all verticals, the Nike Flyknit was Australia’s most popular product during the first three months of 2021. So popular, in fact, that seven out of the top ten products sold in Australia were Flyknits. In addition to the popularity of the Flyknit, three of the top seven silhouettes were women’s models demonstrating the importance of women in the marketplace – as well as showing how ridiculous it is that brands so often overlook women consumers. It’s safe to say that Flyknits are having a moment in Australia.
Let’s take a closer look at the Flyknits that so far have been racking up the sales in 2021.
