The New 'Lebron 15' Pays Tribute to Nike's Original Shoe
The design of the newly released 'Nike Lebron 15' shoe pays tribute to Nike's first ever shoe. That shoe was called the Waffle Trainer. In 1973, Nike co-founder Bill Bowerman molded rubber into his wife's waffle iron, thus discovering a way of making track spikes without the spikes. Bowerman's innovation led to the design for Nike's first shoe.
Nike recently launched a new initiative called "Lebron Watch," which refers to James showcasing new limited-edition styles of the Lebron 15 on the court. The design of the Nike Lebron 15 combines new technology and a sleek modern look, with design elements of the original Waffle Trainer. The white midsole and the printed tag give the shoe a distinctly vintage feel.
Fans should keep an eye out as Nike has plans to release more retro-inspired kicks in the coming months.
