D.A.T.E. is the acronym of the four young founders: Damiano, Alessandro, Tommaso, Emiliano. In 2005, the four of them met up in London and there, feeling unsatisfied by their jobs, decided to create their own brand of sneakers. In January 2006, thanks to a friend, they obtained an invitation as guests to display their collection in a small space at the trade show Pitti Immagine Uomo. Thanks to their craftsman’s feel, the first D.A.T.E. charmed the public and become the real news of the season. D.A.T.E. is today one of the most brilliant European emerging brand in the fashion outlook. Thanks to its urban, contemporary and dynamic style, D.A.T.E. has achieved a relevant place among the most outstanding players on the man and woman sneakers market. Essential design, style research - materials, textiles, leather made in Italy only - and precious applications are the distinctive marks of D.A.T.E aesthetic.
