  1. KangaRoos

    KangaROOS are an American brand of sneaker originally produced from 1979 through the 1980s, with a later revival that continues in present. They were notable for having a small zippered pocket on the side of the shoe, large enough for a small amount of loose change, keys, or more recently, condoms. KangaROOS were designed by American architect and jogging enthusiast Bob Gamm. Gamm was a running enthusiast who would go ten kilometers a day, but preferred light athletic clothes without pockets. He designed the sneakers for his own personal use as a place to store his keys and money, then marketed them effectively. His marketing design was successful, leading to sales in excess of 700,000 pairs a month by the early 1980s. Further refinements on the original design led to several significant innovations in athletic footwear. One such innovation, the Dynacoil, was a patented energy release system designed in the mid-1980s by former Nike designer Ray Tonkel and consultant Al Gross and tested by NASA. Many other athletic shoe manufacturers would later incorporate similar designs into their shoes. In the early- to mid-1980s many USA professional athletes wore ROOS football and baseball shoes as well as shoes for running and training. Notables included Walter Payton, O.J. Anderson, William Perry, Ozzie Smith, Vince Coleman and Ron Darling, and Kenyan track stars.

    The subtleties of this, I think, are probably lost from a distance, if there isn’t an industry for kangaroo leather and kangaroo meat, kangaroos are still going to be shot, I promise you. Landholders are still going to shoot kangaroos and it’s going to be a worse animal welfare outcome than if it was done in a regulated, controlled manner.

  3. Shane Lewis:

    The dangers are, you would n’t go near a dog when it’s eating its dinner, but people let their children go over, and I’ve seen kangaroos lash out thinking the kids going to take their food when they’re just coming to pat them, we try to scare them into not being naive and thinking they’re cute and cuddly by showing them the photos [ of injuries caused by kangaroos ], what can happen, and not to give them any food.

  4. Mark Pearson:

    If they’re being managed properly, apparently, then we wouldn’t be seeing dramatic drops of kangaroos in areas which aren’t even particularly rural farmland.

    I don't really worry about it, I mean, I'm here to satisfy Boo Weekley, Boo Weekley family, and when I'm done with golf, which I hope is in about four or five years from now and I'll go home and fish and hunt all day and maybe come over here and visit and shoot Boo Weekley some kangaroos and catch some fish and whatever else.
