In 1971, design student Carolyn Davidson created the now-iconic Nike “Swoosh” logo for just $35.

🇺🇸 SneakerBoxTech 🇩🇴 on Instagram: "Sergio Lozano’s masterpiece just got its kickflip license. The Nike SB Air Max 95 “Black/Cacao Wow” (SKU: HF7545-002) represents one of the most audacious crossovers in recent Swoosh history, taking the chunky, multi-layered anatomy of the 1995 runner and re-engineering it specifically for the torture of the griptape.
