Baltimore County shoe startup inks deal with Charm City Run, D.C. retailer

A Baltimore County kids’ shoe company started by a former Adidas and Mizuno executive has secured deals to get its shoes in several regional running stores. Jbrds, which focuses on making shoes built specifically for kids’ feet, will soon have its shoes in Charm City Run and Pacers stores. The deals are the first retail partnerships for the company that started selling its shoes online in August 2022 and will bring Jbrds to much of the mid-Atlantic.
