Product Description
The history of the German Army Trainers (GAT) is a disputed one. What's certain though is that it was designed for indoor training of the German armed forces in the 1970s. The rubber sole for traction and an all-leather body for comfort made the shoe the perfect fit for indoor training exercises. Later, as with so many other pieces, the design found its way from the military into fashion. PUMA is re-issuing today this vintage icon from its archives keeping its simple and timeless appeal which is what makes the PUMA Army Trainer such an enduring style. This execution is a leather upper with a suede toe overlay staying true to the original. Upper - Leather, Lining and Sock - Textile, Sole - Other Materials.
