In the late 18th century, people wore rubber soled shoes called plimsolls, but they were pretty crude—for one thing, there was no right foot or left foot. Around 1892, the U.S. Rubber Company came up with more comfortable rubber sneakers with canvas tops, called Keds. By 1917, these sneakers began to be mass produced. (They got the nickname sneakers because they were so quiet, a person wearing them could sneak up on someone.)]]> 2020-05-15 23:29:29 UTC https://padlet.com/jhernandez322/6qv05zp5ns3gq0og/wish/576162985 jhernandez322 https://padlet.com/jhernandez322/6qv05zp5ns3gq0og/wish/576165464 Sneakers went international in 1924. That’s when a German man named Adi Dassler created a sneaker that he named after himself: Adidas. This brand became the most popular athletic shoe in the world. Track star Jessie Owens wore Adidas when he won four gold medals at the 1936 Olympics. Adi’s brother Rudi started up another famous sports shoe company: Puma.]]> 2020-05-15 23:33:00 UTC https://padlet.com/jhernandez322/6qv05zp5ns3gq0og/wish/576165464 Innovation at a Price jhernandez322 https://padlet.com/jhernandez322/6qv05zp5ns3gq0og/wish/576166182 2020-05-15 23:34:03 UTC https://padlet.com/jhernandez322/6qv05zp5ns3gq0og/wish/576166182 Sneakers Go Global jhernandez322 https://padlet.com/jhernandez322/6qv05zp5ns3gq0og/wish/577175922 2020-05-16 22:50:59 UTC https://padlet.com/jhernandez322/6qv05zp5ns3gq0og/wish/577175922 The History of Sneakers jhernandez322 https://padlet.com/jhernandez322/6qv05zp5ns3gq0og/wish/577176098 2020-05-16 22:51:22 UTC https://padlet.com/jhernandez322/6qv05zp5ns3gq0og/wish/577176098 jhernandez322 https://padlet.com/jhernandez322/6qv05zp5ns3gq0og/wish/577176265 Sales of sneakers really took off in 1984, when Michael Jordan signed a contract to wear a Nike shoe called Air Jordans—the most famous sneaker ever made. Even after Jordan retired from the NBA, his shoes continued to be best sellers. As companies like Nike, Reebok and Adidas competed, they changed the way sneakers looked, adding wild colors and doing away with laces. Sneakers began to be produced for every sport, including walking, skateboarding and “cross training.”]]> 2020-05-16 22:51:45 UTC https://padlet.com/jhernandez322/6qv05zp5ns3gq0og/wish/577176265 jhernandez322 https://padlet.com/jhernandez322/6qv05zp5ns3gq0og/wish/577177278 2020-05-16 22:53:57 UTC https://padlet.com/jhernandez322/6qv05zp5ns3gq0og/wish/577177278 jhernandez322 https://padlet.com/jhernandez322/6qv05zp5ns3gq0og/wish/577178118 2020-05-16 22:55:52 UTC https://padlet.com/jhernandez322/6qv05zp5ns3gq0og/wish/577178118 jhernandez322 https://padlet.com/jhernandez322/6qv05zp5ns3gq0og/wish/577178926 2020-05-16 22:57:31 UTC https://padlet.com/jhernandez322/6qv05zp5ns3gq0og/wish/577178926 Air Jordan 12 Flu Game jhernandez322 https://padlet.com/jhernandez322/6qv05zp5ns3gq0og/wish/577181333 2020-05-16 23:03:20 UTC https://padlet.com/jhernandez322/6qv05zp5ns3gq0og/wish/577181333 Fun Facts of some sneakers jhernandez322 https://padlet.com/jhernandez322/6qv05zp5ns3gq0og/wish/577182042 2020-05-16 23:05:04 UTC https://padlet.com/jhernandez322/6qv05zp5ns3gq0og/wish/577182042 jhernandez322 https://padlet.com/jhernandez322/6qv05zp5ns3gq0og/wish/577182486
