Trying to make a name for oneself in performance apparel that professional athletes use -- and that aspiring athletes covet -- is never easy. Sure, Nike
At least Callaway still has a shot. Anyone else remember when Starter began airing its branded-apparel ads featuring star athletes such as Emmitt Smith and Karl Malone in the 1990s? No? Well, the company ultimately filed for bankruptcy in 1999.
