Brand Profile
Ellesse is a sport fashion brand with product lines with high quality content. Founded in Perugia in 1959 by the Italian tailor Leonardo Servadio (the name of the brand derives from the initials of its founder), it revolutionized the world of sport with the invention of jet pants, the iconic ski trousers inspired by the flared jeans of the 70s . During the 1980s it sponsored various sporting events: from the 1982 World Cup to Formula 1, moving from surfing to golf, thus becoming a status symbol in the sporting world. In 1985 it dressed the winner of the Wimbledon Tournament, Boris Becker, and today it continues to be a representative brand of the world of tennis, from which the Company draws inspiration for the creation of new collections with leisure and urban influences.
