Nike Launches First Łódź Store in Manufaktura, Managed by Apsys

One of the most eagerly anticipated store openings in Łódź this year has finally arrived: Nike has opened a pop-up boutique in the iconic Manufaktura shopping center, offering fans of sportswear and streetwear access to the globally renowned brand. This marks Nike's 14th store in Poland and the very first in Łódź and its surrounding region, catering to a growing demand for premium sportswear and accessories.

A Unique Pop-Up Experience

Spanning 250 square meters, the Nike boutique is located on the first floor of Manufaktura and features an impressive range of products. Beyond the brand's classic sportswear and accessories, the store includes streetwear favorites, such as the highly sought-after Nike Jordan sneakers, which have become a cultural icon among younger consumers.

The store is designed as a pop-up concept that will operate until spring 2025. Afterward, it will undergo an expansion and transition into Nike’s latest retail concept, offering an even more immersive shopping experience.
