Li-Ning/Baron Davis Lose Big Los Angeles Market
Trade Observations: Li-Ning is steadily making a big impact in the performance footwear arena; however, they may have suffered from Baron Davis’s move to Cleveland. Baron Davis was the brand’s biggest market payer seeing that he worked in the bright lights of Los Angeles. It was a perfect situation for Li-Ning and Baron Davis to garner attention for his signature model. The west coast was very near the Chinese market, and you could always catch Baron and his Li-Ning BD Defend sneakers in the Blake Griffin highlights seeing that he was the guy throwing him alley-oops consistently. It may be a little tough to market Baron’s Li-Ning BD Defend in Cleveland.
