Waffle Origin
In 1971, Nike co-founder Bill Bowerman was watching his wife, Barbara, make breakfast on a waffle iron and inspiration struck. He swapped batter for rubber and the Waffle outsole was born. It not only delivers traction, durability and heritage Nike style—it proves that greatness is in the everyday. And that old, rusty waffle iron? Well, it now sits on a pedestal at Nike World Headquarters.

cute but couple issues

Unfinished

These shoes look great and are very comfortable. The tongue is very weird though. The top of the tongue is unfinished. There is no stitching over the top so you can see the foam inside. I will keep them because I think I can stitch it shut but it does look tacky as it came.
Nope - they click with every step

These shoes make a clicking sound every time I walk. They are so cute, but I cannot handle the clicking.
