Four years have come and gone since our first Athletikan sneaker launch. It’s been a journey to get to this point, but it’s only the start. After coming up with a concept for an athleisure sneaker to compete with the big players in the market, I reached out to my friend Joe Tambo, of whom[…]

For around the first 10 months of our business (Uncle Jack), we ran our eCommerce store via WooCommerce. Originally, we decided to run with WooCommerce because it was fairly low-cost to operate and I had quite a bit of experience with WordPress having developing websites for clients on the platform.
