Reproduction of Found ("ROF") is a brand of the Japanese group Eye Found Co. Ltd created in 2016.

The primary goal of the brand is to reproduce shoes and sneakers from the 1950s to the 1990s. It specializes particularly in training sneakers from various world armies: Canadian, French, American, German, British, and Russian.

This model is a reinterpretation of the iconic German Army Trainer, often abbreviated as GAT. The origin of this model dates back to the 1970s, when the German Federal Army ("Bundeswehr" or "BW") wanted to order half a million durable sneakers for the intensive training of its battalions. Two major German brands competed for this contract: Adidas and Puma.

The model that we know did come into existence, but archives from the time do not allow us to determine which house originated it, and the mystery remains unsolved to this day, with the narratives of various participants continuing to fuel the legend.

This version offered by ROF retains the design of the upper part, made of flexible suede leather. The outsole, however, is different from the original, replaced here by a BW SPORTS sole. The models offered by ROF are among the best reproductions of the kind and offer great durability combined with immediate comfort.

The models from Reproduction Of Found fit true to size, you can go with your usual size. If you are between sizes, opt for the larger size.
