I'm starting this blog on this site in support of my wife's new business, Breakaway Fashions. They specialize in little girl's soccer uniforms (other types of sporting apparel will come later) that fit our young daughters.
I'm the coach of my daughter's soccer team. The team started back in 2004 when the girls were 4 turning 5. It was impossible to find cute, "girly" uniforms that were even close to fitting these kids. No one made uniforms for 4 to 5 year old girls.
Breakaway is now offering high-performance, wicking fabrics in sizes that actually fit these little girls. This includes tiny little soccer socks that won't bunch up inside their cleats; they don't go up to their waist either. That's just the practical side. The real hit is the choice of cute prints and skorts instead of shorts. Once the girls wear these uniforms, they never want to go back. (They're so comfortable, our daughter wants to sleep in her jersey and skort.)
The stories in this blog are based on messages I've sent out over the years to friends and family. Let me add a disclaimer about some of the pictures from previous years that you'll see associated with these stories. The girls were not wearing Breakaway soccer uniforms back in 2004 - 2006; the business didn't exist. It was the many difficulties associated with these other uniforms that prompted us to start the business. Enough with the disclaimers. I'll be adding stories from the past over the next few weeks. In the spring, I'll start adding new stories as the new seasons come and go.
