Nike was founded in 1962 by Bill Bowerman and Phil Knight. However, their name was originally Blue Ribbon Sports. In 1972, they changed the company's name "Nike", which was named after the winged Greek goddess of victory. The infamous "Swoosh" logo and "Just Do It" slogan can not be mistaken.
Then came Michael Jordan, the world's greatest basketball player. He came to Nike in 1985, changing the shoe game forever, and taking Nike to a level all on its own. Add LeBron James, Kevin Durant, Kobe Bryant, and Charles Barkley to the mix and you have perfection.
