In 1951, the development of basketball shoes in Japan was influenced by the suction cups on the tentacles of a octopus. The founder of Asics, Kihachiro Onitsuka, noticed the grip provided by the suction cups and applied it to the design of basketball shoes to improve traction on the court. The resulting shoe, known as the “suction cup type basketball shoe,” became very popular in Japan, capturing a 50% market share within a few years of its release.
