The first-ever play-offs in basketball were held on December 29, 1891 at YMCA Training College, Massachusetts. Back then, it was designed to be an indoor game played during the winters. The creator, Canadian-born James Naismith, used elements from American football, soccer and hockey, and a game of his childhood 'Duck on the Rock' to create the game of basketball. The training college was later named Springfield College; and the game, became an all-year crowd puller. By 1920, the Converse's All Star called Chucks became the branded basketball shoes to be worn by all upcoming and successful players. These were followed by stupendous sales of Nike's Air Force 1 and Jordan's colorfully-designed basketball shoes.

Branded basketball shoes shoot straight through fashion hoops

Basketball, as a game, requires sudden movements, agile steps and jumps through the entire play-offs. Therefore, shoes for both men and women players should provide stability, shock absorption and ankle support. The first branded basketball shoes were made of canvas followed by leather. Today, lightweight mesh and synthetic uppers that are stiff and reduce inward rolling of feet are used. New lacing systems and cushioning provide enhanced stability to players. Along with comfort, style has become an important ingredient. Colors which were earlier considered girlish or garish have now become trendy.
