The Ellesse brand was founded in 1959 by a tailor named Leonardo Servadio. He lived in the Italian town of Perugia and was a keen skier, however he was less keen on the ski-clothing available to him at the time. So what did Servadio decide to do? As you probably guessed, he began to design and produce his own ski gear and founded his own fashion label: Ellesse. The distinctive feature of the label was that it combined sport and fashion, meaning they were no longer mutually exclusive. As far as Servadio is concerned, sportswear mustn’t just perform great, but also look great.

One of the special things about this label is that it doesn’t take things too seriously, it’s edgy and fun but at the same time casual, ranging from hoodies to fancier wear, and comes in sizes from xs to xl to xxl. With the Ellesse collection, men and women are always well prepared for both sport and leisure time when wearing Ellesse’s retro clothes and accessories that are available from KICKZ – thanks to the sporty, yet trendy style. A true testimony to the brand is the fact that accomplished sports stars, such as Boris Becker, Tommy Haas and Elina Svitolina, have all worked with and represented Ellesse since its early beginnings.
