The tricolour rooster, from the stadium to the city.
A brand born in Champagne
Le Coq Sportif has its origins in 1882 in Romilly-sur-Seine, in the Aube region, where Émile Camuset made knitted goods. Its logo, the cock, emblem of France, has made its mark on sports fields. The brand has dressed teams and champions in many sports: it notably equipped Argentina's Diego Maradona, world champion in 1986, and laced up Arthur Ashe, winner of Wimbledon in 1975.

The style of Le Coq Sportif
The brand draws from its archives for its lifestyle collections. Leather tennis sneakers, like the one named after Arthur Ashe, embody retro elegance. The tracksuits and jackets with tricolour stripes recall the outfits of the 1970s and 1980s, and the Essential joggers, made from fleece, are perfect for everyday wear. The embroidered cock, whether subtle or large, features on every piece. The brand also remains present in sports, from cycling to rugby and football.
Wearing and choosing
Le Coq Sportif sneakers can be worn with jeans or chinos for a French retro look. The tracksuits can be worn as a complete set or mismatched, with the jacket over a t-shirt and jeans, and the joggers paired with a sweatshirt. You should choose your size according to the brand's size guide, allowing a little room for fleece items. The leather of the sneakers can be cleaned with a damp cloth and nourished with colourless cream; cotton items should be washed inside out at low temperatures.
