Nike Sportswear RPM Backpack

Nike, Inc. is arguably the world's most recognizable sportswear brand. Originally founded in 1964 as Blue Ribbon Sports by Bill Bowerman and Phil Knight, it officially became Nike, Inc. in 1971. The brand named itself after the Greek goddess of victory, highlighting its dedication to athletic performance and innovation.

Manufacturing for Nike products like the Sportswear RPM backpack is a global operation. The company does not own the factories where its products are made but instead contracts with independent manufacturers. Most of these backpacks are produced in Southeast Asia, particularly in Vietnam, China, and Indonesia, which house large-scale textile and gear production facilities.

Currently, Nike, Inc. remains the ultimate owner of its brand. It is an American multinational corporation headquartered in Beaverton, Oregon. As of 2026, the company continues to operate as a titan in the apparel industry, managing its diverse portfolio of brands including Nike, Jordan Brand, and Converse globally through various regional subsidiaries.
