About Munich

In Barcelona, everyone knows what the X stands for. Munich began in 1939 as the Berneda family business in Sant Boi de Llobregat, making shoes for futsal, handball, boxing and athletics — sports that really put your feet through their paces. In 1964, the second generation added that distinctive diagonal X to the side and renamed the brand Munich. For decades, that Spanish indoor-shoe DNA remained at its core, until grandsons Xavier and David brought the brand into fashion in the late 1990s. Today, more than half of its production is streetwear, without the X losing any of its recognisability. Spanish craftsmanship, a sporting foundation and a logo you can recognise from a distance. Models and colours change, and every shop sets its own prices, so the same Munich model can cost different amounts depending on the retailer. On Solezilla, you can compare the selection from dozens of shops and find your size at the best price.
