In this episode, Jason Hewitt tells the story of the origin of two famous sportswear brands, as well as the town from which they come.  The town remains divided both by a river running through it and by the loyalties of its townspeople to either of the two brands.  He also shares the legend of an American sports icon who helped to catapult the founders' brand to worldwide acclaim in one of the world's earliest international televised broadcasts.
