KLEMAN
Founded in 1946, KLEMAN is a French shoe manufacturer under CLEON, known for creating work lines that meet military specifications. The brand offers service shoes and supplies to the military, firefighters, and public facilities. With its functional designs, KLEMAN shoes are appreciated across generations, standing the test of time without being influenced by trends.


Two Types of Leather for a Distinctive Quality
The shoes are available in two types of leather: smooth leather and suede. The carefully selected leather is durable yet supple, naturally conforming to the foot with each wear, becoming more comfortable over time.

Smooth Leather
This versatile material works well for both casual and dressy looks. Although it may feel stiff when first worn, it softens over time, perfectly molding to your foot. The leather gradually develops a deep, glossy shine, making it a joy to break in.

Suede
Soft and warm to the touch, suede is perfect for adult casual styles. The balance between elegance and casualness is impeccable, making this material an attractive option. The suede material molds to your foot easily, providing comfort from the very first wear.

The front features a U-tip design, with a U-shaped stitching from the toe to the instep, adding a unique accent compared to the standard plain toe design.

The insole is made from PORON cushioning material, providing superior comfort with every step.

The outsole features a cement construction rubber sole, offering excellent grip even on rainy days while also preventing water from seeping in, unlike leather soles.

A Taste that Blends into Any Scene
With a sleek yet subtly voluminous silhouette, the shoes are well-balanced in form. They pair perfectly with slacks without looking too casual, and are also an ideal match with denim or military pants. The shoes add a polished, “refined adult style” to your outfit, bringing together a French work-inspired look. These versatile leather shoes can be worn casually in the city without feeling overdone.

Staff comment
● Staff (165cm/52kg) Usual shoe size: 25.5cm Worn: 40 The fit was just right. The width wasn’t tight, and there was about one finger’s width of room at the toes. |
● Staff (171cm/61kg) Usual shoe size: 26.5cm Worn: 40/41 Size 40 felt slightly tight with thin socks. The toes fit just right, but the width felt a bit tight. Size 41 was a perfect fit with no tightness. I would choose size 40, assuming the leather will stretch. |
● Staff (177cm/67kg) Usual shoe size: 27.5cm Worn: 42/43 I wore regular socks. Size 42 felt a bit tight. Size 43 was a perfect fit, and size 42 caused my toes to bend slightly, so I would choose 43. If the leather stretches, I could adjust with a regular insole. |
