German Trainer Color: Black Size: 43 (26.5cm - 27cm) These are high-cut German trainers with a Velcro closure. I purchased these as a new reproduction about 5 years ago and have worn them about 10 times. There is almost no wear on the soles, but some slight hydrolysis is visible. Product Description These shoes can be paired with a wide range of items, from denim and chinos to wool pants and shorts. The simple and timeless design goes well with any pants, and the thick jogging sole provides comfort even when worn for long periods. They are easy to secure with the Velcro closure. The uppers are made of cowhide. Brand Introduction This is a reproduction of the sneakers that were officially adopted as training shoes by the German army in the 1970s and 80s. These sneakers have a historical background, with major sports brands producing them at the time. They faithfully reproduce the last (wooden mold) and use the same outsole as the original. The thick jogging sole, which offers excellent cushioning and durability, is comfortable and provides the functionality unique to military items. The simple and timeless form that goes well with any item maintains stable popularity and has established a solid position. Size: 27cm
