Here’s a 1980 vintage Nike ad for their running line of shoes. This original vintage Nike sneaker print ad is available at our web store Rewind Running.

MOST OF THESE SHOES HAVE NO BUSINESS BEING ON YOUR FEET.
But among them are the shoes you were born for. Because they have been engineered for your foot type, gait pattern, body weight, even your age, sex and training schedule. You're not like every other runner. And you shouldn't have to pretend you are. That's why we spent years working with orthopedists, podiatrists, world class athletes and everyday runners. We wanted a line of shoes that had nothing to do with the so-called "average" runner. We wanted shoes that could help real people. With real and diverse characteristics. Now we've got them. For pronators, heel strikers. Big runners and small. For people who churn out 125 miles a week, and those who run a good ten. Shoes for the road, the trails and models for both. For feet that are flat or arched, rigid or flexible. The new Nike Running Line. Never again will you have to put in the other person's shoes.
