Two vintage Nike "Moon Shoes" held by gloved hands, with text about Nike exploring their history before a Jacquemus release.
A black Nike Moon Shoe with a waffle sole, worn with white socks. The text details its creation by Bill Bowerman in 1971 using a waffle iron.
Text: "Where’s the legendary iron now and what’s next for the Moon Shoe? Bowerman buried the scorched appliance in his yard. Son Tom dug it up 40 years later; today it sits in Nike’s archives as a shrine to fearless tinkering. A sleek Jacquemus-styled collaboration and reboot lands soon. Product pages are live and say “coming soon.” Expect a staggered drop through September across Jacquemus and select Nike doors. Priced at AUD$250 (USD$180), brace for instant sell-outs."
A worn-out vintage Nike running shoe above a quote by Rick Lower highlighting the evolution of running shoe design from basic protection to enhanced traction and cushioning, emphasizing Bowerman's commitment to improvement.
When a burnt waffle iron birthed Nike’s most significant breakthrough.

The Birth of the Running Shoe 👟
In 1892, Albert T. O’Higgins created the first modern running shoe with a rubber sole, designed for better grip and comfort. Before this, athletes ran in basic leather shoes, which didn’t offer much support.

His heroic run inspired the modern marathon we know today! 🏅
From ancient warriors to today’s runners, running has always been a symbol of endurance and triumph.
