Style of the K-Swiss ST329 CMF

K-Swiss celebrates its long-standing court heritage with the revival of the ST329, enhanced by the addition of a CMF cushioned sock liner and outfitted with a leather façade. You can play up its style which comes in an array of neutral and earth-tone shades, such as white, black, grey, stingray, dark olive, and pepper, with a medley of spring, summer, and autumn casual wear.

Notable Features

Apart from its classic charm, the major selling point of the K Swiss ST329 CMF is its memory foam unit. Such cushioning element, complemented by a padded collar and interior, grants optimum comfort to the feet. These features are supported by a sturdy outsole made of durable tread pattern. 

History of the K-Swiss ST329 CMF

K-Swiss is regarded as a definitive court classic established in 1966 by brothers and US immigrants from Switzerland Ernie and Art Brunner. Their love for skiing and interest in tennis were evident with the release of their first sneaker, a tennis-specific shoe called Classic.

The K-Swiss Classic incorporated the essential support elements of ski cleats such as side bindings and D-ring lace system that intended to support the feet, particularly during lateral movements. This all-leather court shoe was K-Swiss’ ticket to popularity as it instantly became a staple across the US and eventually the world, on and off the court.

K-Swiss’ magnetism among sneaker fans earned itself the 10th spot among America’s top 200 small companies, as ranked by Forbes in 2000.

On the same year, the brand dropped the chunky, low-top K-Swiss ST329, which was easily welcomed by supporters of baggy clothing. One of the updated versions of this shoe is the K-Swiss ST329 CMF that’s loaded with cushioning support called the Comfort Memory Foam.
