Nike's Cheif Design Officer, John Hoke, is not a shoe designer. John is just a designer passionate about shoes. Obviously he designs shoes, but shoe design isn't his only discipline. John has an appreciation for the Porsche 356 Speedster Cabriolet. John has a model of the Porsche on his shelf in his office, and when the interviewer mentioned it he went on about its design and the philosophy behind it. Being able to recognise those design elements in other mediums takes a true designer, and shows that he is more than just a shoe designer.
