Established in
2001, founder and shoe designer Sung Choi, wanted to modernize the
classical stylings and silhouettes of casual shoes and blend them
with the comfort from athletic footwear. The use of premium
materials such as multicolored suedes and leathers, has made Clae a
brand for the fashion conscious.
If you’re only
being introduced to Clae now, it is not surprising since Choi put
the brand in hiatus in 2004 due to problems with the back-end of the
company. Re-releasing the brand in fall 2007 with a new partner that
more closely shared Choi’s vision, has revived the brand and now
continues to claim attention. Drawing from timeless design, Clae
delivers a collection of evolving classics for the modern man.
“Clae's
collection of original silhouettes breathes new life into
traditional footwear. An ease of design lies at the heart of the
brand, fusing the comfort of athletic footwear with the aesthetic of
traditional dress-inspired styling. By redefining the boundaries of
casual footwear, Clae fills the void between sneakers and shoes.
Clae captures the lifestyle and momentum of the modern consumer,
appealing to men of any generation.”
Rooted in
lifestyle, driven by leisure, Clae’s styles are at once wholly new
and instantly classic.
