In reality, what it created was a war that would give rise to hundreds of thousands – if not millions – of dollars in costs and stretch over years and continents. Inside Nike’s ultra-secretive Beaverton, Oregon headquarters, this shoe took the form of years of intensive research and development, and expenses that CEO Mark Parker thought the $86 billion sportswear giant might never recoup.
