Sneaker-heads often obsess over the newest products and exclusive offerings. Which is why Nike, Snapchat, and Shopify partnered for a one-of-a-kind sneaker drop.
Satish Kanwar is the VP of Product for Shopify. He explains that this venture was extremely successful for all three partners. The Air Jordans were sold out quickly, Snapchat engagement was high, and Shopify saw seamless and swift retail.
Kanwar thinks that the future of shopping will continue to expand on social channels. Shopify already partners with Facebook, Pintrest, and Snapchat.

American businesses that rely on Chinese goods are reacting with muted relief after the U.S. and China agreed to pause their exorbitant tariffs on each other’s products for 90 days. Many companies delayed or canceled orders after President Donald Trump last month put a 145% tariff on items made in China. Importers still face relatively high tariffs, however, as well as uncertainty over what will happen in the coming weeks and months. The temporary truce was announced as retailers and their suppliers are looking to finalize their plans and orders for the holiday shopping season. They’re concerned a mad scramble to get goods onto ships will lead to bottlenecks and increased shipping costs.
Shopping expert Trae Bodge discusses how talks between the U.S. and China is good news for now, but uncertainty remains for back-to-school and the holidays.
