Our top footwear picks from Le Coq Sportif this week

Dubai, UAE, September 5, 2015: September is for new beginnings! Why not spice up your training outfit with these eye-catching shoes from Le Coq Sportif FW15 Collection!

THE FRENCH SPORT BRAND
Le coq sportif was founded 130 years ago, in 1882, in Romilly-sur-Seine near Troyes, France’s knitwear capital. Its ear-liest purpose was providing high-quality sport products for teams and individual athletes.

The brand has been marked by great moments - Bernard Hinault’s five Tour de France victories, Yannick Noah’s French Open win, and Argentina’s World Cup  victory in 1986, led by Diego Maradona, after Italy’s win in 1982 - that have given it lasting ties to sport.

Today, le coq sportif is a clothing sponsor to athletes in its  historic sports: the tri-colour brand provides high-performance jerseys to the Tour de France leaders, and in January 2014 it launched a deal with French tennis player Richard Gasquet.

In 2015, le coq sportif will also return to women’s tennis and top-level football.

Le coq sportif designs its shoe and clo-thing collections with just as much care as its products designed for professional athletes, with the same touch of French elegance.

LIFESTYLE
Le coq sportif has given 8 of its friends carte blanche to revisit the fall-winter 2015 lifestyle collec-tion on their own terms. They have reworked selected items according to their own style, staging them in a setting that inspires them. Young Ita-lian actress Martina has beautifully

paired two of this winter’s essenti-als, a jumpsuit and a pair of Dyna-comfs, the brand’s latest sneaker model. Her partner Luca elegantly sports items from the Coq d’Or and Arthur Ashe lines. Akin opted for a streetwear look.

TRAINING
Designed for indoor and outdoor workouts, the Training line features innovative cuts and materials, a combination of comfort and techni-cal details.

The sporty women’s pieces are refi-ned, in body-sculpting materials. The jacket and leggings come in this sea-son’s print: an ombré polka-dot that really makes an impression. Most of the items feature reflective logos and stripes, so you can run during  the day or after dark. UK television presenter
The men’s collection is a study in muted elegance, with items in blue, white, and red, the brand’s signature colours.

Charlotte wears women’s training pieces in a graphic black and white print. Spanish bloggers Marta and Marc are lending a little warmth in winter with this sporty-casual com-bo.

PERFORMANCE CYCLING
Le coq sportif has chosen Felix  Fander and Thomas Tixier Lamaison, two cycling buddies who go eve-rywhere on two wheels, to unveil its fall-winter 2015 performance cycling collection.

It features elegant, innovative, vin-tage-look pieces, of the same quality as the Tour de France leaders’ gear. It’s sure to be a hit with all cycling fans!
