Wrong! Try again.
Wrong! The correct answer is Reebok. Reebok's United Kingdom-based ancestor company was founded because 'athletes wanted to run faster.' In the 1890s, Joseph William Foster made some of the first known running shoes with spikes in them and, by 1895, he was in the business of making hand-made shoes for ace runners. Before long his fledgling company, J W Foster and Sons, developed an international clientele of distinguished athletes. In 1958, two of the founder's grandsons started a companion company that came to be known as Reebok, named for an African gazelle. In 1979, Paul Fireman, a partner in an outdoor sporting goods distributorship, spotted Reebok shoes at an international trade show. He negotiated for the North American distribution license and introduced three running shoes in the US that year. At $60, they were the most expensive running shoes on the market.
