Nike Olympic zoom d. First full length plastic plate, red swoosh one side/blue swoosh on other side. Ovett and Aouita both had them at the 84 Olympics, and I remember being blown away.

I remember seeing fast runners in yellow and black Nike XC shoes in the early 2000's, maybe Waffle or Zoom Streak XC. I always thought they were really cool looking.

I got confused because I thought they were saying it was an animat and I was about to say I don't understand because it is dead flesh, but then I found out what Animatronics was.

Pre-Modern Age: Tiger Ohbori and Oregon Waffle.
Modern Age: Nike Eagle. THE original modern racing flat. Very, very cool.

There he was, Gold Medalist Carlos Lopes, watching us run by with the Spiridon Golds on his feet.
