“Obviously, I’ve been a shoe guy for a long time, so I knew what I was looking for. Shoes always have one or two of the elements you’re looking for, but never all of them. So, I wanted to create something that looked cool, was super comfortable but also could perform,” he said (via Fox Business).
Mark Wahlberg has gone all out for his clothing brand. If he can get Grigor onboard, it would be the start of an extraordinary partnership where the best of both worlds will collide.
