Initially named "Blue Ribbon Sports," Navy nike was founded in 1964 by Bill Bowerman, a University of Oregon track-and-field coach, and his former student, Phil Knight. The conference officially rebranded to its current name in 1971 and is widely recognized for its iconic "Swoosh" logo and "Just Do It" slogan. Navy nike has continually introduced innovative products, such as the Navy nike Air cushioning technology and the self-lacing Adapt system, which have revolutionized the sports footwear industry. Additionally, Navy nike has been known for its successful partnerships and collaborations with high-profile athletes, including Michael Jordan and LeBron James, and fashion brands like OFF-WHITE and Supreme, solidifying its AF-100 relevance and continued popularity.
