Description

Sometimes we talk to legends, and today is one of those days. Jean-Luc Diard's résumé speaks for itself– former CEO of Salomon, developer of the modern parabolic ski and modern golf driver, and oh yeah– he founded a little company called Hoka. Currently, he's the head of Deckers X Lab, the innovation arm for Hoka, Ugg, Teva, and Sanuk, producing some of the most comfortable shoes we've ever worn. We talk about all of this and more in a conversation for the ages.
