Manufacturing secret of Spring Court
In 1936, Georges Grimmeisen, a tennis enthusiast, took on a formidable challenge: designing a breathable and ultra-durable shoe for playing on clay courts. This ambition gave birth to the Spring Court brand and its stroke of genius: direct vulcanization.
The manufacturing secret? Fusing the raw rubber sole and the cotton canvas upper in a single step at 160°C. Under the effect of heat and pressure, the material naturally embeds itself into the fabric fibers. No need for glue or chemical solvents: the bond is instantaneous, indestructible, and ecological!
To top it all off, Georges invented the famous breathable sole with four ventilation holes and anti-slip arches. The result was immediate: a lightweight, ultra-flexible sneaker with such perfect bounce that it felt like "playing on springs."
Today, the brand is managed by his three granddaughters.
