Unstoppable Spirit: World Series to World Traveler with Jeremy Guthrie

I run the business with my best friend and college, not roommate, but my college neighbor.

Unstoppable Spirit: World Series to World Traveler with Jeremy Guthrie

And, you know, it really started because, well, the business itself started 25 years ago because of a need.

If I could just play baseball in my shoes, I know all these problems would go away.

been called by trainers this spring training and doing special projects for guys and you would see them all over the league you wouldn't know who they are but there's guys that need that help and then of course as rules and regulations for what colors of shoes you can wear and what you can wear kind of relaxed suddenly you wanted guys to be able to make a statement on the fashion side and so custom cleats has grown from a need of one player

Mick Unplugged
Unstoppable Spirit: World Series to World Traveler with Jeremy Guthrie

to servicing thousands of athletes around the world and our what we do is we take any sneaker and make it into a cleat and it's a simple process we carve into the shoe without compromising its stability pretty much i tell people whatever the shoe felt like before it's going to feel like afterward but now you're going to have cleats on the bottom you're going to have traction
