Reebok
It has been well over a century since J. W. Foster came up with his own running shoes, and over five decades that the J. W. Foster and Sons brand changed its name to Reebok.
Up to today, Reebok remains to be one of the strongest sports shoe makers and has helped many top athletes to the very top. Do the names Allen Iverson or Venus Williams ring a bell? When Reebok came up with the Reebok Pump technology in 1989, Shaquille O’Neal, Yao Ming or John Cena just haven't been able to take their Reebok sneakers off.
