Reproduction of Found ("ROF") is a brand from the Japanese group Eye Found Co. Ltd, established in 2016.
The primary goal of the brand is to recreate footwear and sneakers from the 1950s to the 1990s. It specializes particularly in training sneakers for various world armies including 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 robust sneakers for the intense training of its battalions. Two major German brands, Adidas and Puma, then competed for this contract.
The model as we know it came into existence, but the archives from that time do not clarify which company originated it, and the mystery remains unresolved, with varying accounts continuing to fuel the legend.
This version offered by ROF retains the design of the upper part, made from luxurious Italian Nappa leather with a soft pigskin leather lining. The models offered by ROF are among the best reproductions of their kind and provide great durability combined with immediate comfort.
The models from Reproduction Of Found are true to size, so you can choose your usual size. If you are between sizes, opt for the larger size.
