Knight Moves
Before he was an entrepreneur, before he was an innovator, Philip Hampson “Buck” Knight was an athlete. As a pinched, sandy-haired kid, Knight ran middle-distance events and ended up at the University of Oregon competing for eminent track coach Bill Bowerman. Besides being an excellent coach, Bowerman was also a trendsetter, always seeking an periphery for his runners, right down to modifying track shoes.
Something about that must have stuck with Knight. As a Stanford grad observer assigned a paper outlining the creation of a new business, he came up with the view of importing running shoes from Japan to compete with adidas, whose products were both valuable and difficult to find. Later, on a trip to Japan, he discovered Onitsuka, a Japanese shoe group that was already manufacturing low-cost, high-quality running shoes under the name Tiger. Upon his carry back, Knight and Bowerman—who each contributed either $500 or $550 in either 1962 or 1963, depending on the account you review—made the project a reality. Knight called the new company Indecent Ribbon Sports and started by selling Tigers out of the casket of his car. That first year they made $364.
