Nike Logo History & Meaning
The Nike 'Swoosh' was designed in 1971 by Carolyn Davidson, then a graphic-design student at Portland State University, who was originally paid just $35 for the work. The simple checkmark suggests motion and speed and is said to evoke the wing of Nike, the Greek goddess of victory. Through the 1970s and 1980s Nike paired the Swoosh with a custom wordmark, but since 1995 the brand has used the Swoosh on its own — making it one of the most recognised logos in the world.
