-So, for the last couple of days here are at the PGA Merchandize Show, I've been testing equipment, making swings, you know, doing everything, and since I've go the wrong footwear, and I've come across a great new line, Kikkor Golf, and I'm here with the founder of Kikkor, James Lepp, and I like this look James. It really-- it completes the outfit. -I think so. -Yeah. -I mean, we made them for you. -Right, just for me. -And then you got the matching hat with the pink belt, but yeah, they look great on your feet. -Well, thank you very much on the hat. That's the belt I'm talking. -Yeah. -That's okay. -Well James. Let us talk a little bit about your product line and the look is definitely more of a lay back kind of recreational golfer, kind of feel or something that more sort of escape kind of lifestyle. -You got it. -Yeah. -You're a spokesperson, I think. That's kind of great. Yeah, a lot of that, a lot of styles with a lot of bold colors. This one is color of retro, this kind of old school look-- old school look with a runner to replace full spikes. It's fun. Very comfortable with the shoes. -Uh huh. -And then we kind of have that skateboard shoe feel. This one is called Khaki Crusader, and suede leathers, really comfortable again, built in spikes, so it's. -You can see there's like jeans. -Exactly. -You don't look something that necessarily with-- -They're pretty much skate shoes with spikes on the bottom. -Right. -At its simplest form and everybody finds skate shoes very comfortable and then this year we have a Slip-On golf shoe, which kind of like advanced style. These are the slide on, really inexpensive, gives you some traction, laid back. -Right. -Really cool too. -This is one of my favorites and it seems to be kind of a trend that we're starting to see a lot is that kind of slip on easy golf kind of-- -Yes, yeah. -There is definitely lots of options out there. It's tough to kind stay ahead of the curve, but I don't think anybody has really done it in an advance style at a really -Right. -great price point. This will only retail for $64, so-- -Awesome price. -You might have to get a couple of pairs, and then-- -Then this one-- -Yeah. -I mean [unk] -Nobody has done this. -You're making statement. -I don't think anybody has really done this. -I don't think anyone has done this. -It's the fashion high top. It's kind of got some hip hop influences. It's a limited edition. We did it for fun, but in a pretty-- -In big [unk] -Yeah, sure. We also have all white version, which looks pretty [unk] whether you're wearing shorts or some sort of pants [unk]. -Definitely unexpected. And we think that it's actually functional. -True and very light too. -[unk] uh huh -for a high top golf shoes and the traction is that you feel specifically for the golf swing. there's something new we have coming out this year the VEKTRboard Traction System. -Yeah, it's cool to have this. The spikes are actually braced on 1 side. -Braced on 1 side that are carefully dig in as you are forming a golf swing to complete, also prevents from spinning out. So, well, looks like we all go fashion and comfort. We also have some great tech [unk]. -Guys do-- alright, thanks so much James, appreciate it. -Thank you.
