Default Nike Buys Hurley International!!

After extensive work undertaken over the last several months, it is with great pleasure that we welcome the newest member of the Nike family, Hurley International.

Bob Hurley, a 20-year industry veteran, founded Hurley International in 1998. Today, Hurley International is a lifestyle brand that is true to its core teen consumer and has a very strong presence in the US. Bob

Sounds like a pretty large acquisition ... as far as I know, Hurley International was doing pretty well on its own. Mr. Hurley originally left PacSun to start his own brand right?

I'm sure Nike will open more doors of opportunity for Hurley. $$$$$$$$$$$$

Hurley's wack. Typical trendy brand for all the bros out there who dress the same with shorts, red/yellow shirt with matching undershirt and red/yellow sideways hats. Oh yea, I forgot about the trendy skater shoes they all wear. Oh yea, they all drive huge raised trucks. THE SAME TRUCKS THAT ALMOST RUN OVER YOUR S2000S.

It's not like I have anything against them or anything
