About K-Swiss
Two Swiss brothers, a tennis court in California, and an idea. Art and Ernie Brunner emigrated to the US, fell in love with tennis and imported leather tennis shoes from Swiss maker Kuenzli — hence the name: the K from Kuenzli plus Swiss. In 1966, they launched the K-Swiss Classic in Los Angeles, one of the first all-leather tennis shoes, with its unmistakable five stripes on the side. What started on the court rolled onto the streets and became a staple of sneaker culture, especially in the retro and preppy segments. American tennis heritage with a Swiss signature, clean and timeless. Models and colors change, and every store sets its own prices, so the same K-Swiss can cost different amounts depending on the shop. On Solezilla, you can compare the selection from dozens of shops and grab your size at the best price.
