Walcott pleased with brand testKwame Laurence :: Trinidad Express :: 15.03.2016Keshorn Walcott was a satisfied man, following the launch of his official line of T-shirts, at the Fan Club in Trincity Mall, on Saturday. "It went well," the reigning Olympic men's javelin champion told the Express, "better than I thought knowing we only advertised it one day. "The people came out, whether it be more for pictures than jerseys," he quipped. "It was good. Hopefully it will be better in the future. I'm thankful to the people, knowing that they're looking at what I've been doing. We just posted it on social media and also did something in the papers, and the people came out. It has been a long time since we've done anything, and since we're out of competition now, it was an opportunity for the people to get to see me and know what I'm up to." The 22-year-old field athlete said there's more to come from the Keshorn Walcott brand. "We did the jerseys as a test to see how strong the brand is going to be. We're trying to do small things first, and build up to something big. So hopefully, after the T-shirts, we can get into something better.
