Jox by Thom McAn 1981 vintage sneaker ad

Here’s a 1981 vintage sneaker ad for Jox by Thom McAn.

Three reasons a serious runner should take Jox seriously.

1 JOX ROAD HANDLER

Rated among the world's high quality running shoes, Road Handlers® have a "frelonic" compression insole. It molds to and holds the shape of your foot to give you the comfort and support of a custom fit. Plus, there's a layer of impregnated felt material for added shock absorption and insulation. Men's Road Handler, only $34.99. Women's Road Handler, only $32.99.

2 JOX JAGUAR

The ideal training flat for long-distance road work.The sole is made from Goodyear's Indy 500 rubber-compound—so durable it's been given one of the highest abrasion-level ratings by the International Board of Standards. And for maximum performance, Jox designed a unique wave-patterned sole to give you maximum flexibility. Men's and Women's Jaguar®, only$34.99.

3 JOX HP/3

This is an extra-light training shoe with excellent comfort and support. Jox designed the sure-footed HP/3 to weigh only 10 ounces (men's size 10). So if a lighter shoe is important to the way you run, take a serious look at Jox HP/3. Men's HP/3* only $34.99.
