K-Swiss are a iconic American foot wear company. They design and develop a range of athletic shoes and are very well known for their Tennis Court shoes. They began by creating Tennis shoes for worlds best tennis players in major championships and then moved onto to developing them to be worn casually.

K-Swiss's story all began when K-Swiss was funded by two Swiss brothers in 1966. Art and Ernie Brunner were entrepreneurs who moved to California to start their own footwear company which was a dream they both shared. The two brothers shared a love for skiing and this is where they got their inspiration. Leather skiing boots need to have tight fits that will support aggressive side-to-side movements, conveniently this is what tennis players need also. So they set off on their journey to create the first all-leather tennis shoes.

K-Swiss Classic were the first pair of shoes to be born. They have been successful for nearly 50 years and they have won numerous awards. They have been branded one of the most influential trainers of all time and they have powered some of the worlds best tennis players to major championships.

After making trainers for successful athletes K-Swiss moved on to creating trainers for fashion. Often companies create legendary trainers for sporting reasons and they tend to become a retro fashion statement and are worn casually and K-Swiss are no stranger of this! They have created several shoes that have a contemporary twist on the original court style trainer. These trainers have earned a place as one of the style icons of our generation. Check out a few of K-Swiss trainers that Atom Retro stock.

Belmont T K-Swiss Trainers:

Made out of canvas these trainers are a contemporary take on a classic court trainer. With signature branding and blue colour theme they are a perfect way to add an Indie vibe to any outfit.


Belmont SO K-Swiss Trainers:

Made out of leather these trainers are very alike the traditional tennis court style trainer. However with trainers include navy K-Swiss signature branding that contrasts upon the white leather to give them a fab Indie look.


Hoke K-Swiss Trainers:

Made out of leather these trainers are a very Indie take on the traditional court style trainer. In a black and white colour theme they are a great addition to a casual outfit. 

AdCourt K-Swiss Trainers:

Made out of suede these trainers are a contemporary Indie take on a traditional court trainer. With cushioned inners and suede fabric they make a very comfortable shoe.

K-Swiss can definitely be applauded from taking an idea from a hobby and turning it into a great successful company that have been responsible for helping tennis players win major championships. They still carry on creating trainers till this day but focus more on designing contemporary takes on classic court trainers.

“In 1950 out of sheer necessity, my late husband Mr Harold Morris and myself went into business as Industrial Clothing Specialists...”

And so began the Gloverall story. Originally making boiler suits, overalls and warehouse coats, Gloverall was approached by the Ministry of Defence at the end of the Korean war to dispose of some surplus duffle coats. When this supply ran out, it was clear the demand was still there - and the Gloverall Duffle coat was born!

From a factory behind St Paul's Cathedral Harold and Freda Morris with the help of Harold's Father, a master tailor began to work their duffle coat-ey magic. Picked up quickly, the Gloverall Duffle coat became a symbol of ‘social renegades’ in the 50s and 60s. The coat was worn by film and TV icons from Bing Crosby and Perry Como through to John Wayne and Dudley Moore.

Perhaps the most famous Duffle Coat of all is The Monty (Called ‘The Freda’ for women), named after one of the most iconic Duffle coat wearer, Field-Marshal Bernard L. Montgomery.

For Winter 2013, the mens Mid Monty will be available in new colour way, burgundy (pictured below) and traditional beige. This made in England duffle coat is a mid length version of the original wartime coat, featuring Varnished wood toggles & jute rope fastening, fixed shoulder ‘cape’ detail for extra strength and warmth and usually made in boiled wool mix, so perfect for winter.

Also coming for the boys are a new short, waist length Gloverall Monty Duffle Coat in Navy, a new colour in the Gloverall Reefer coat, Khaki and a rather special Gloverall unlined Chesterfield three quarter length coat in grey herringbone - look out for that one!

In the womens range, featured new styles include a Gloverall Shawl Collar Swing Coat (pictured above) in Navy/Burgundy and a Sherpa Monty Duffle Coat in boiled wool in Earth Brown.
