Phil Knight is a businessman and one of the founders of Nike, the company that makes sportswear and shoes and whose logo resembles a swoosh. Thanks in large part to Phil's desire to create the perfect pair of shoes and his talent as a marketer (he was the first to design shoes for famous athletes), sneakers have become the most popular shoes in the world. In the beginning, Phil sold sneakers out of the trunk of a car. Today, his shoes are worn by hundreds of millions of people every day. And his company has inspired an entire generation to a healthy lifestyle, a love of comfortable clothing, and freedom of expression.
