The Axios Harris Poll surveys more than 18,000 Americans to rank the 100 most visible companies in the country on metrics like character, vision and ethics, and in 2019, Nike fell to 35th place, slipping from last year’s No. 12 spot. (Only Facebook, Tesla and McDonald’s saw more dramatic slides.)
Adidas didn’t appear on the 2018 list, but this year ranked 27th as the German sportswear giant continues to make headway in Nike Air Max 90 Womens Pinkthe U.S. market. While it has a sometimes controversial partner in Kanye West, the Yeezy franchise has been a major success for the company, with sales Nike Air Max 2017 Damen up more than 500 percent in the fourth quarter of 2018.
Nike still scored higher than its chief rival in the “products/service” category, but it took a hit www.garanterra.de in “citizenship” and “character,” which could reflect the polarization around its campaign with Colin Kaepernick, the former NFL quarterback whose decision to kneel during the national anthem to protest police brutality has made him a divisive figure among Americans.

Still, several lawsuits are ongoing: one filed by two former employees who claim the company fostered a hostile work environment and “intentionally and willfully” discriminated against women with regard to pay and promotions, and another filed by several investors who allege that the company’s executives failed to adequately investigate and address these issues when they were brought to light internally.
While neither sportswear company cracked the top ten, a few retail brands made the cut: Amazon Nike Air Vapormax Mujer came in second place (after grocery chain Wegmans), followed by Patagonia (#3) and L.L.Bean (#4). Under Armour also made its first appearance on Nike Air Max 270 Mujer the list, coming in at No. 44.
