In brief
Nike is rebuilding under new leadership. Here's how to save on everything from running shoes to NFL team gear. Nike offers multiple ways to save: app codes, birthday discounts, student and military verification discounts, and seasonal sales on bestselling shoes. Originally reported by WIRED.
Nike's comeback under new leadership
After 2024 layoffs, poor innovation, and falling sales, CEO Elliott Hill took over to refocus on core markets and repair retailer relationships. Nike remains a global powerhouse despite recent struggles.
Why full price rarely makes sense
Nike products almost always go on sale through seasonal discounts or promotions. Unless you need something immediately, waiting for a deal saves significant money.
Get 15% off app orders
Use promo code APP15 on the Nike app for 15% off your first purchase plus free shipping on orders of fifty dollars or more. You automatically become a member when you log in.
Birthday discount for members
Nike members get 10% off during their birthday month with a minimum one hundred dollar purchase. The discount applies to the first five hundred dollars of a qualifying purchase.
Member perks beyond discounts
Nike members receive free shipping on orders of fifty dollars or more, a free sixty-day wear test to ensure fit, and easy returns with receipts. Sign up before your birthday month to get the birthday discount.
Student discount: 10% off
All US students over sixteen get 10% off at Nike stores and online. Verify your student status through a form and receive a single-use promo code for most items.
Military and first responder savings
Active, reserve, veteran, and retired US military get 10% off, as do medical professionals, first responders, and teachers. Verify through SheerID to receive a code valid once every seven days.
Nike V5 RNR: 15% off trending shoe
The Y2K-inspired V5 RNR features a chunky yet lightweight foam midsole with metallic details and a 3D Swoosh. Available in men's, women's, and kids' versions for streetwear and daily wear.
