Founded in 2001 in Los Angeles, CLAE was born from a vision to redefine the everyday sneaker through a minimal, sustainable, and contemporary lens. The brand reimagines timeless silhouettes by combining them with the comfort and performance-inspired construction of athletic footwear.
Each style is thoughtfully designed with a strong focus on balance—between design, comfort, quality, and durability. Material selection sits at the core of the process: premium leathers sourced from Leather Working Group–certified tanneries, GOTS-certified organic cotton, GRS-certified recycled fibers, as well as innovative vegan alternatives made from bio-based materials such as cactus, apple, and grape.
In an industry driven by speed and constant newness, CLAE takes a more intentional approach—prioritizing craftsmanship, thoughtful production, and long-term wear. The sneakers are designed to move with everyday life, age with character, and maintain their structure over time.
Today, CLAE continues to grow internationally while staying true to its DNA: delivering premium, functional, and enduring products defined by a clean, understated, and timeless aesthetic.
