Closed since late 2023, Nike Portland in the historic Kress Building at 638 SW Fifth Avenue reopened as a running-led sport hub in Nike's hometown.

U.S. District Judge Adrienne Nelson in Portland dismissed most of a securities class action over Nike's direct-to-consumer strategy on 31 March 2026, letting claims against Nike and former CEO John Donahoe go ahead over one September 2023 statement.

Seven consumers filed a proposed class action against Nike in federal court in Oregon on 8 May 2026, saying it passed IEEPA tariff costs on through higher prices and should not keep the refunds it stands to get after the Supreme Court struck the tariffs down.

A Portland federal jury found on 22 July 2026 that Nike paid former process engineer Heather Hender less than male colleagues and promoted her more slowly because of her sex, awarding $19,739.52 plus $7.5 million in punitive damages under each of federal and Oregon law.
