there was a timeline on Nike's site back when the first Shox were released. according to their timeline, Nike was working on Shox (or a form of it) before they released air cushioning.
But Shox as a technology has pretty much flopped. Since its first incarnation with BB4 the Basketball line has SERIOUSLY dropped off. The "running" shoes are all but casual shoes now. Remember the Shox TL? Awesome shoes IMO. Why did they stop? I think Shox still could be redefined and retooled to be a little bit better as far as performance is concerned. The Shox 09 seemed like they were trying to do something right but I guess not.
I USED to be a Shox fan, but now I don't even see the point.
