ELLESSE

Brief history of Ellesse

Born in Italy during the 60s Ellesse was founded by Leonardo Servadio who wanted to find the perfect balance between comfort and style. With passion and dedication the founder managed to mark a trend by his breakthrough products and flashy color games that gave life to a society tending to neutral colours.

The name of the brand Ellesse is derived from the initials of the founder (L.S.). Its popularity began to grow by the 70s when they were representative for producing ski clothes. The brand was also associated with the tennis world.

The Ellesse`s connection with the two sports was also suggested through its logo, an imago type that represents at the same time the two front tips of the skis (on the sides - red color) and a half of a profile image of a tennis ball. From then on, the brand continued to increase its reputation through sportswear and stylish street clothes.

It was the first sportswear brand that featured its logo on the outside of its garments and was one of the most inspired ideas. Later, in 1987 the brand was adopted by the British Pentland Group who continued with the model of first-class sportswear that took off in the United Kingdom.

The eighties models have marked the line of their uniqueness; the brand was predestined to be crowned as one of the reference brands of sports fashion. Sportsmen like Tommy Haas, Muhammad Ali, Alain Prost or actors such as Roger Moore and Brigitte Nielsen are well-known celebrities associated with Ellesse, the important Italian brand.

Its comfortable and original, but at the same time elegant style, breaks the standard that "sportswear is only for sports".
