With a brand history that dates back to 1970, Kickers is considered a popular favorite when it comes to on-trend styles matched with high quality.
Daniel Raufast came up with the idea for a free-spirited footwear brand after seeing a poster for the American musical, HAIR. Kickers tapped a younger generation who, even at that time, invented an original way of life that is in tune with their personal aspirations. Through fashion, they were also able to express their originality although one integral part of their “creative look” seemed to be missing: shoes.
Kickers was developed with the spirit of INDEPENDENCE, OPTIMISM, IMAGINATION, and ESCAPE in mind. Its name was derived from the English word, “Kick”, plus “Ker” to make it sound American then “s” was added to match it with jeans. And just like jeans – the quintessential fashion piece of the youth in those days, Kickers wasn’t just in-fashion but it also practical and comfortable. It instantly appealed to the offspring of the swinging seventies who appreciated simple, authentic qualities of natural materials.
Kickers in the Philippines
Since it was launched in the Philippines in the ‘90s, Kickers has been more popularly known to stylish teens who wanted to be in the know on the latest shoe trends. Just like in its earlier years, Kickers continued to become a popular brand even among the Filipino youth making it an instant hit in local shores. While the brand has become a preppy favorite of sorts, it now wants to show consumers – even those who have been loyal to the brand for years, that Kickers is a full-on lifestyle shoe brand that can cater to your various lifestyle needs.
More than just the perfect school shoes, Kickers does carry a full lineup of shoe styles ranging from casual footwear to more polished styles. Just take a look at its Spring/Summer 2011 collection which is a big departure from the usual designs that Kickers has been best known for.
