Jean-Marc Djian | Trail Running Shoe Dog, VP of Footwear SATISFY

Jean-Marc Djian is the brand new VP of Footwear for SATISFY and one of the OG shoe dogs of trail running. Jean-Marc worked at Salomon for almost 20 years, pioneering trail running footwear during an important moment for the sport.

Topics discussed:

  • The intersection of science and soul
  • Jean-Marc's Olympic hockey career & the psychology of the goalie
  • The birth of Salomon trail running
  • His relationship with Jean-Luc Diard, the Co-Founder of HOKA
  • The 0 to 1 process for TNF footwear
  • His transition to SATISFY and the intention behind it
  • The evolution of trail footwear over time
  • Athletes who are pushing their sport forward
  • A lot more!
