Athletic Company Expands into Subscriptions

If you follow trends, you know that subscription services are IN. Whether it be for prescription medicine or funky accessories, people love the idea of receiving a recurring package that they select and choose online. 

Just when we thought all the subscription services were covered, Nike announces they are releasing one for children's shoes.

This online subscription is also aiming to do some good for the environment. The "Adventure Club," as it is called, will also give the option for subscribers to send back their worn shoes for a shoe drive two times a year, where they will be refurbished through the Nike Grind Program.
