Sometimes mistaken for the Nike Cortez… There were two versions of the Nike Waffle Trainer: the first edition was launched in 1974; the second version, which came out one year later, features a flared outsole for better stabilization. In 1976, the UCLA colourway was introduced. It was reissued in 2002.
The Waffle Trainer also featured the waffle-iron outsole - the result of an experiment with a waffle iron by Bill Bowerman. This type of outsole was first used on the Moon Shoe.
