I don't think RUNNING shoes were something invented. I think it was more just an evolution of the shoe. Something better for performance.

I guess noone ever saw the movie Prefontaine?!?! Coach Bowerman, from Oregon, made the first shoe designed specifically for running. He used his wifes' waffle irons to make the waffle print shoe. (which i thought was pretty funny)

I don't think they were really ever invented. They just evolved from the basic shoe over time.
