damn, do you know why? They had sick neon green singlets back then and some bright orange ones the Kenyans wore.
I used to have some great Fila road racers Wow those were awesome they were Orange & Black, know what Im talkin about?
I trained in a pair of those neon green and black Fila marathon flats in the mid 90s and they weren't bad at all. Ugly as hell but i figured if the Kenyans could wear them so could I... Too bad Fila got out of the running shoe game.
Hell yeah. The flats the "Discovery Kenya" (Josh Cox trained with them) athletes wore were bitchin.
fila still sells some running shoes in the philippines.
when tergat left them for nike they went bust.

Very few stores carried the product. The only store that did ok was Paragon's in NYC. There were a lot of stores that could not move the product. Fila spent waaaaaayyyy more $$$ on their athletes than what they took in from running sales. In the end it was inevitable.
