History

The brand was established in 1988 by the Cléon family in La Romagne, France. Historically, Kleman functioned as a supplier of specialized footwear for French public institutions, including the national railway and emergency services. This background established its reputation for technical reliability. In contemporary fashion, the brand is recognized for transitioning professional-grade work shoes into the lifestyle sector, maintaining production within its original French manufacturing facilities to preserve traditional assembly methods.
