JcPenney 1980 USA Olympics vintage sneaker ad

October 7, 2018

Here's a 1980 vintage advertisement for the JCPenney USA Olympics running shoes. #Saw themed for Halloween. 👟⚙️😲 And look at that - we're back to adidas-ish 3 stripes again.

​Ad info is below:

Before you spend $30 on a jogging shoe, get the inside story. 

When JCPenney developed their U.S.A. Olympics jogging shoe, they made sure it was built with the quality and workmanship you'd find in shoes costing $30. With features like an inner sole built to absorb shock. A padded tongue. Stylish leather and nylon uppers. Things you'd find in $30 joggers.

And one thing you wouldn't expect. The price. U.S.A. Olympics cost only $21.99. And for every pair of U.S.A. Olympics

purchased, JCPenney contributes 50¢ to the U.S. Olympic Committee. U.S.A. Olympics pics. The Jogger. Only $21.99 and only at JCPenney. 

A great run for your money. Only at JCPenney. 

Prices higher in Alaska. Hawaii and Puerto Rico. Available at most JCPenney stores and through the catalog.
