Glove chat with Sells' Adam Sells

Thu, 31 May 2018 02:38:30 GMT

In this episode we chat with Adam Sells. 'Sellsy' created and owns Sells gloves, easily one of the top 5 glove brands worldwide. Really interesting chat on: how he got in to making gloves, the trials and tribulations of owning a glove brand, how do you get professional goalkeepers to wear your gloves, how do you get Victor Valdes at Barcelona to wear your gloves, how to keep improving your gloves all the time. Sellsy even brought some new gloves down for us to try on and genuinely Lloyd and David reacted like school kids who have just been told Peter Schmeichel is your new teacher. Really, really interesting chat that could have gone on for days. Deffo worth checking out a pair of Sells if you haven't already. DISLAIMER: We recorded this a few days before the England squad was announced and so whilst Adam says he doubts Nick Pope will go to the world cup, he now has his Sells represented in the England camp. Result.
