K-Swiss® was founded in 1966 by two Swiss brothers, who moved to California to pursue their dream of starting their own footwear company. As avid skiers, they drew inspiration from leather ski boots to create the first all-leather tennis shoe.
This is how the K-Swiss Classic was born, and it remains one of the most iconic and classic sneakers of all-time.
It was the only model sold for two decades, and it has elevated the brand to numerous awards for excellence and success over their nearly 50 years in existence.
Today, K-Swiss' premium sports heritage has expanded from performance tennis footwear, to include lifestyle and fitness footwear that stands up to the performance demands of world-class athletes and trendsetters alike.
K-Swiss Kids nurtures a competitive nature with a resistant and pliable leather construction that will never hold back active boys´ and girls´ fast-paced moves. No matter the age, these iconic sneakers have kids´ developing feet covered with optimal cushioning, encouraging them to never back down from a challenge and taking their skills to the next level.
