Autry Medalist Platform W

Blush Bride)

The older hands among us still know Autry from childhood. Founded in Dallas in 1982, the brand quickly gained notoriety in the sneaker market thanks to timeless designs and innovative technologies. Autry was particularly popular in sports such as tennis, aerobics and running - Tennis Magazine voted the Medalist the best shoe in 1985, and two years later Runner's World awarded the Jetstreamers model five stars. After it became quieter around the label with the death of founder Jim Autry in the 90s, Autry is back on the international market since 2019 and from now on also part of our assortment. In contrast to the past, the heritage-influenced brand is nowadays more lifestyle-oriented. Thanks to minimalist unisex designs in retro style with the characteristic contrasting sole, the sneakers match almost every outfit and can be combined in many ways. Typical for Autry: the logo with the United States flag and the use of premium materials on all shoes. For example, Autry uses nubuck and other high-quality leathers in addition to smooth leather. Fathers of the comeback are Alberto Raengo and Régis Billard. As self-confessed Autry fans, it was a matter of the Frenchmen's hearts to bring the brand back to life. "Autry is the 'more is less' approach to footwear, the alliance between North American nostalgia and European know-how," Billard describes the philosophy.
