Choosing • When it came to selecting which product we would use we used a point system in which, 3 was the highest you could earn and 1 being the lowest. • Nike finished with 13 points • Adidas finished with 12 points • Asics finished with 5 points • We would suggest you go with Nike after our evaluation. Though Nike only edged out Adidas by 1 point and they both seem to be very promising Nike might be the slight better choice.
