Louis Leeman has enjoyed an exponential growth in recognition and popularity since the year of its inception. Launched officially in 2012, the label is the creative vision of Dutch shoe designer Louis Leeman and his wife Erica Pelosini, a research stylist from Italy. The two met while studying at the Polimoda school in Florence and found that they shared a fervourous passion for fashion design.
The German Army Trainer was initially an evolution of the first track spike trainer and was designed for indoor use. The GAT featured an all leather upper for suppleness and comfort. The sole was made from rubber gum for grip which was enhanced by dome shape indents at the toes which would act like suction cups. There is a circular design at the ball of the foot to improve pivoting and quick changes of direction.
