Last year I explained in detail why I was giving up on the process of creating a new sneaker for JmksportStore. Developing and making a new shoe for JmksportStore unlike when I ran Sho-Shot, tends to be more of a vanity project. When I made Sho-Shot basketball shoes I was running Center Court Basketball. The…
The first sample came back for the next JmksportStore shoe. After my daughter and I came up with what we thought was the perfect blend of athletic and casual I knew I had to cross my fingers and hope for the best since paying for the sample meant I was at the mercy of the…
A few weeks ago I began looking at the development of another JmksportStore Sneaker. Three years ago in 2015 I made the last shoe from JmksportStore. The project was wrought with errors from the manufacturer. The last used where Chinese size 41 to 46, Which placed the shoe at a size 8 to 12 on…
It’s been a while since I’ve shared in JmksportStore related news. I did do the quarterly report and I will begin work on the second quarter report soon, but this is the good information. This is the kind that always makes me excited. In 2012 right before the last Olympics Ian Gale designed the CG097II….

An excellent pickup for any season the stylish shoe is a comfortable classic with a retro running feel. Conjoin with denim, joggers or khakis and you can dress the shoe up or down. With a…
The labels are done for the TR-114 boxes. The next step is to make those boxes. I’m not looking forward to that at all. What I am looking forward to is entering back into the fashion arena as opposed to the athletic arena. While I really enjoyed attempting a crack at the athletic shoe market,…
The hardest thing to do in fashion is to build the next season’s releases while the current release hasn’t sold. I’m still in the process of creating boxes for the Summer 2015 release in June 2015, and I have to begin paying for the Fall Footwear. Note: All of you who think you’re ready to…

The shoes finally arrive Thanks for visiting the site. It was down temporarily because I had my automatic renewal set to manual instead of automatic. It’s been a while since I posted information here about the release of the 2013 Spring line. The shoes finally arrived last week and in the same fashion as previous…
Ready for the last Once again, I know it’s slow and while it has been hard to maintain the momentum from February almost 3 months after, this is the reality of small business. The good news though is that the shoes are on the last which means the outsoles are about to be attached. I…
