Nike Strikes a Direct Deal with Lazada in Southeast Asia
Two years after licensing Amazon as its e‑commerce partner in the U.S., the iconic sports brand has turned its sights to the bustling markets of Southeast Asia. The latest partnership, rolled out in Singapore on Saturday, signals a bold move: Nike is now selling directly through Lazada’s “Nike LazMall Flagship Store.”
What This Means for You
- Pure Direct Retail – no middle‑man, no mystery. Everything comes straight from Nike.
- Best Prices – confident pricing, no hidden mark‑ups.
- Authentic Premium Footwear – genuine Nike kicks, not knock‑offs.
Who Can Grab a Pair?
From the islands of Indonesia to the cities of Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, and Thailand, your neighbors in the region can now order the latest Nike shoes with a single click and enjoy secure, reliable delivery.
A Quick Behind‑the‑Scenes Look
Imagine a Java coffee shop in Jakarta where someone spots the new Air Max 270 on screen, swipes “add to cart,” and gets it in a few days. Or a quick jog through Bangkok’s Chatuchak market with a new pair tucked into a bag. That’s the essence of this partnership: bringing the brand straight into the hands of the fanbase.
Why Nike Chose Lazada
Before, the company had partnered with Amazon – an experience that proved a bit like a bad run. After two years of listening to feedback, Nike recognized Southeast Asia’s online shoppers are savvy, price‑conscious, and crave authenticity. Lazada, as the region’s leading marketplace, fits the bill perfectly – a platform that blends local logistics with global quality.
So, next time you’re tempted to splurge on a new sneaker, remember: it’s not just a purchase, it’s a partnership of trust. Nike and Lazada together make sure you walk straight out of the virtual door with confidence. Go on, strap on those fresh kicks and feel the swoosh of style!

Nike’s Latest Power Play: From Amazon Chaos to Lazada Confidence
In a nutshell: Nike decided that the Amazon fiasco was getting too messy for its feet—and it’s now making sure every swoosh stays real on Lazada.
What Went Down at Amazon?
- Two years ago, Nike split up with Amazon after a big hair‑cut overhaul of its retail strategy.
- Fake shoes and price‑wars from third‑party traders were stealing the spotlight.
- Customers started calling out the brand’s online “sneaky” reputation.
Why That Matters
Amazon’s marketplace is a wild west of third‑party sellers, grey market finds, and outright fakes. The result? Nike’s original shoes risking being replaced by knock‑off killers.
The Direct‑to‑Consumer Switch
Nike is now tightening the reins through its own digital front line: the Nike app and Nike.com. This gives them a one‑stop shop where they can set the price and keep quality.
Enter Lazada: The Trustworthy Partner
- Amazingly, the great play is on Alibaba‑owned Lazada. The platform offers a direct checkout that’s built on verified sellers.
- Shoppers can punch down the “Buy Now” button knowing the shoes are the real, authentic ones.
- It’s a win‑win: Nike gets brand safety and Lazada pulls in sneaker lovers.
So, if you’ve ever felt uneasy about buying a Nike sneaker from somewhere, you’re in luck. Next time, think Lazada—the Lane that keeps the shoes true.
