Glenn's has been selling sporting goods for 40 years
HUNTINGTON - When Glenn Brumfield has opened its own value of sporting goods in 1970, its offer of shoes have been limited almost to discuss Chuck Taylors. In black or white.
Then, throughout the 1970s and before 80 hours, there was a revolution in athletic shoes of all kinds. Nike began in 1972. Adidas, which had been sold in Europe, has started selling shoes in like-minded states, and Reebok came on the scene. Meanwhile, shoe manufacturers have started manufacturing other footwear for various sports and new sports have been growing in popularity - jogging and aerobics, as examples.
"Shoes made us," said Brumfield, 86, now president of the table for Glenn's Sporting Goods, 4th Street, which celebrates its 40 years in partnership this month.
Glenn's son, Jim Brumfield, is now president of the award, which has branched out and used different tactics to survive as a retailer of the city center. But Jim Brumfield gives credit to his father to help the company prosper in good time.
