When the running craze hit America in the 1970s, running shoes became the thing. And they had to have stripes on them like Adidas shoes. America's biggest shoe retailer at the time, Thom McAn, launched their own athletic brand to capture some of the market.
They called their line "Jox," but you don't have to be one to wear them. And yes, they had stripes on them.
Thom McAn took a one year plunge into the card market and issued a disc set in 1985. It was an MSA produced-set so there were no logos on the pictures.
Never heard of this shoe brand... but they kinda give off an ASICS vibe. If they were affordable, I'd buy a pair.

I actually had a pair of Jox in 1976 ,they were yellow with black stripes .
