A homemade running prototype is finally entering regular closets 🏠 Nike’s Moon Shoe started as Bill Bowerman’s 1971 waffle-iron experiment to solve grip for runners, and it never had a real commercial run beyond a handmade batch for athletes. Now that design is heading to retail for $105 after an original pair sold for $437,500 in 2019. That shift says something bigger about how brands use their archives. Once collectors assign myth and scarcity to a prototype, a mass release can feel like public access to a legend. #Sneakers #Business #MoonShoe #SneakerHistory #Nike
