1984 laid the groundwork for the sneaker battles that took shape over the next 30 years. It was an Olympic year. Sneaker brands were battling to sponsor the event because it was being held in Los Angeles.

Los Angeles put its best foot forward by building what is known as Exposition Park where the opening and closing of the Games were held.

With an eye for great design, Greg Okawachi & Gary Indjian.” Take a second to check out their work and use the source link to see more.
