Fresh Air from Oregon
In 1977, an inventor named Frank Rudy presented a unique idea to Nike co-founder Phil Knight: placing air bags inside shoes. Phil went for a test run, and Nike never looked back.
Over the last 30 years, no technology has become more synonymous with Nike than Air. And a short walk from Nike’s World Headquarters, in Beaverton, Oregon sits the Nike Air Manufacturing Innovation building. This building and its counterpart in St. Charles, Missouri have created a combined 3.5 billion Nike Air units.
