What is a German trainer?

German trainers were originally training shoes used by the German military in the 1970s and 1980s. They have become popular from a fashion perspective due to their slender silhouette, simple design that combines suede, durability, and practicality unique to military shoes.

The outsole is engraved with "BW SPORT", and this sole is also used on genuine German trainers, and BW is an abbreviation for Bundeswehr (BUNDESWHER).

With a highly functional sole that has excellent durability and grip, these sneakers are easy to use on a daily basis and won't cause fatigue.

In addition, the vulcanized manufacturing method (vulcanized kettle manufacturing method) is used, in which craftsmen mold each piece by hand.The main body and sole are pasted together and then placed in a kettle and heated at high temperatures to be crimped. , the main body and sole are firmly integrated, resulting in supple, soft comfort and high durability.
