Episode 042: Charley Hudak – From concept and design to materials and marketability; what makes a great golf shoe, the development of the creative process, and why he loves ice baths.

Charley Hudak (IG: @charleyhudak, FB: @charley.hudak, P: @charleyhudak) is the Senior Designer for COBRA PUMA Golf. He has had an amazing career in the shoe design business where he has designed for many well-known brands such as GREATS, DC Shoes, and AND1. Charley’s love of shoes and design started at a young age but did not take the linear path many believe successful careers take. You could say Charley’s career found him as much as he found it and upon completing his education at the prestigious Industrial Arts Program at the University of Cincinnati his career has seen continual growth and development.
