SOUTH WINDSOR SCOOP: Nike closes at The Shops at Evergreen Walk

Nike has closed its location at The Shops at Evergreen Walk.

The shoe and athletic apparel store has closed its doors after 3 years of business in the outdoor shopping village. The store was located next to New Balance.

The store is still fully stocked with a sign announcing the closure. The notice states ‘Thank you for visiting. This store has closed.’

The store’s closure comes as Nike realigns its retail footprint, shifting back their focus to distribution to major retailers that they severed in 2021.
​
The retailer will continue to operate some of their flagship Nike stores and the majority of their outlets. The South Windsor location was a newer concept of lifestyle-stores focused on ath-leisure to compete with Lululemon and Fabletics.
