Ellesse – founded in 1959 by Leonardo Servadio – stands out for its sporty products and classic designs. In the 1960s, the brand focused primarily on producing ski and tennis apparel, although Servadio's goal was to further blur the boundaries between fashion and sport. For years, Ellesse was a leading brand in the world of sports. Boris Becker, Tommy Haas, and Anna Kournikova – the list of well-known athletes who wore products from Perugia is long.
But the Italian label quickly found its way from the country's tennis courts and ski slopes to British football stadiums. The colorful track tops and bucket hats enjoyed great popularity, especially among the younger generation of 80s casuals, and still shape the scene today. The well-known brand logo, consisting of a halved tennis ball and the tips of two skis, can be found on all outerwear, shorts, and accessories. In addition to the popular Ellesse Heritage line, the Ellesse Sport, Ellesse Italia, and the Ellesse Penguin collections have also made a name for themselves and will continue to be produced.
With its current collections and quickstrikes, Ellesse Heritage harks back to the sporty affinity of the 80s and sets the hearts of all 80s casuals racing. Classic tracktops like the Rimini, Caprini, and Fonda tracktops, as well as the ever-popular bucket hats, are redesigned and reissued in the Heritage collection. Matching Prado T-shirts and Diveria sweatshirts in muted to bright colors complete the sporty outfit.
Timeless Italian flair, made for your club's stands and your city's streets.
