Description +
Why eat waffles when you can run in them?
Where the swoosh started. Bowerman's waffle iron, the rubber outsole, the moment running shoes became running shoes. Vintage Nike wall art that honors the founding myth of the sport in the style it deserves. A 1970s ad, born again.
About this print
A playful homage to the founding myth of the swoosh, styled like a 1970s Nike magazine ad. The Waffle Racer is part of running's origin story, the moment Bill Bowerman poured rubber into a waffle iron and started the modern running shoe.
Why hang this
For runners who love the history of the sport. For people who can tell you who designed the Cortez and why. A signature runner gift for the heritage crowd.
