Product Information

In this instant and tenacious New York Times bestseller, Nike founder and board chairman Phil Knight "offers a rare and revealing look at the notoriously media-shy man behind the swoosh" ( Booklist , starred review), illuminating his company's early days as an intrepid start-up and its evolution into one of the world's most iconic, game-changing, and profitable brands. Bill Gates named Shoe Dog one of his five favorite books of 2016 and called it "an amazing tale, a refreshingly honest reminder of what the path to business success really looks like. It's a messy, perilous, and chaotic journey, riddled with mistakes, endless struggles, and sacrifice. Phil Knight opens up in ways few CEOs are willing to do." Fresh out of business school, Phil Knight borrowed fifty dollars from his father and launched a company with one simple mission: import high-quality, low-cost running shoes from Japan. Selling the shoes from the trunk of his car in 1963, Knight grossed eight thousand dollars that first year. Today, Nike's annual sales top $30 billion. In this age of start-ups, Knight's Nike is the gold standard, and its swoosh is one of the few icons instantly recognized in every corner of the world. But Knight, the man behind the swoosh, has always been a mystery. In Shoe Dog , he tells his story at last. At twenty-four, Knight decides that rather than work for a big corporation, he will create something all his own, new, dynamic, different. He details the many risks he encountered, the crushing setbacks, the ruthless competitors and hostile bankers--as well as his many thrilling triumphs. Above all, he recalls the relationships that formed the heart and soul of Nike, with his former track coach, the irascible and charismatic Bill Bowerman, and with his first employees, a ragtag group of misfits and savants who quickly became a band of swoosh-crazed brothers. Together, harnessing the electrifying power of a bold vision and a shared belief in the transformative power of sports, they created a brand--and a culture--that changed everything.

Reviews
"Loaded with hard-earned wisdom...Want a simple recommendation? Go get a copy."-- Portland Business Journal Review, "The best memoir I recall ever reading. As a business biography, it ranks with such recent works as Neal Gabler's Disney and Walter Isaacson's Steve Jobs . But as a personal memoir Shoe Dog  reaches a depth of emotional honesty that even the best biographies haven't touched."-- Rich Karlgaard, Forbes, "A rare and revealing look at the notoriously media-shy man behind the swoosh."-- Booklist STARRED review, "A touching, highly entertaining adventure odyssey, with much to teach about innovation and creativity. Phil Knight takes us back to the Big Bang of the swoosh, recalls how he first begged and borrowed from reluctant banks, how he assembled a crew of eccentric but brilliant misfits, how they all worked together to build something unique and paradigm-changing. An inspiration for everyone with an unconventional dream."- Michael Spence, Nobel-prize winning economist, "I've known Phil Knight since I was a kid, but I didn't really know him until I opened this beautiful, startling, intimate book. And the same goes for Nike. I've worn the gear, with pride, but I didn't realize the remarkable saga of innovation and survival and triumph that stood behind every swoosh. Candid, funny, suspenseful, literary-this is a memoir for people who love sport, but above all it's a memoir for people who love memoirs."- Andre Agassi, New York Times bestselling author of Open, "A blueprint not just for success, but for motivation. Shoe Dog illustrates the unlimited amount of hurdles one might run into while trying to reach a major goal. It's Knight's account of seeing a vision through against all odds."-- Mic.com, " Shoe Dog is a great American story about luck, grit, know-how, and the magic alchemy of a handful of eccentric characters who came together to build Nike. That it happened at all is a miracle, because as I learned from this book, though we are a nation that extols free enterprise, we also excel at thwarting it. This is Phil Knight, one on one, no holds barred. The lessons he imparts about entrepreneurship and the obstacles one faces in trying to create something, are priceless. The pages I folded down are too many to mention."-- Abraham Verghese, author of Cutting for Stone, "Knight reflects on the company's founding and takes the reader on a wild ride of near bankruptcies, crushing debt, rejections, disputes, and one crisis after another. Knight also offers advice to all young people who are looking to stand out, who want to be different, who want to leave a mark on the world."-- Forbes.com, "A blueprint not just for success, but for motivation. Shoe Dog  illustrates the unlimited amount of hurdles one might run into while trying to reach a major goal. It's Knight's account of seeing a vision through against all odds."-- Mic.com, " Shoe Dog is, at its heart, an origin story, of both a global brand and a footwear lifer...it reads like pure adventure story, boys facing steeper and steeper challenges and finding ways through, often by the skin of their teeth. As Knight collects the misfits and oddballs who become the core of his growing company, Shoe Dog is more like The Lord of the Rings than a typical mogul memoir."-- Complex, " Shoe Dog is a great American story about luck, grit, know-how, and the magic alchemy of a handful of eccentric characters who came together to build Nike.

I could not put it down. . . . [ Shoe Dog ] builds characters of the people behind the brand."-- Bill Walton, Wall Street Journal "A fresh historical perspective on one of the most profiled companies in the world." -- ESPN.com "A refreshingly honest reminder of what the path to business success really looks like. . . .

But as a personal memoir Shoe Dog reaches a depth of emotional honesty that even the best biographies haven't touched."-- Rich Karlgaard, Forbes "A fascinating warts-and-all account of the company's early years, a rascally tale of scrappiness and survival, a great read."-- Motley Fool "A rare and revealing look at the notoriously media-shy man behind the swoosh."-- Booklist (starred review) " Shoe Dog is, at its heart, an origin story, of both a global brand and a footwear lifer . . . it reads like pure adventure story, boys facing steeper and steeper challenges and finding ways through, often by the skin of their teeth.

It's a messy, perilous, and chaotic journey riddled with mistakes, endless struggles, and sacrifice. Here Knight opens up in a way few CEOs are willing to do. I don't think Knight sets out to teach the reader anything. Instead, he accomplishes something better. He tells his story as honestly as he can. It's an amazing tale."-- Bill Gates, one of his favorite books of 2016, "The best memoir I recall ever reading. As a business biography, it ranks with such recent works as Neal Gabler's Disney and Walter Isaacson's Steve Jobs . But as a personal memoir Shoe Dog reaches a depth of emotional honesty that even the best biographies haven't touched."-- Rich Karlgaard, Forbes, "A fascinating warts-and-all account of the company's early years, a rascally tale of scrappiness and survival, a great read . . . Knight provides plenty of entertaining reading and laugh-out-loud moments."-- Motley Fool, " Shoe Dog is an extraordinary hero's journey, an epic tale of faith, unparalleled determination, excellence, failure, triumph, hard-earned wisdom, and love. It's nothing short of a miracle that Nike exists. I finished the last sentence in complete awe, inspired and grateful for the experience."-- Lisa Genova, New York Times bestselling author of Still Alice and Inside the O'Briens

This is untrue. Buyer sent unclear messages via M2M and we were uncomfortable shipping to buyer and order was cancelled + refunded in full. Messages were responded to and they were delayed due to medical travel. Unreasonable buyer :/
