Retro sneaker for women. The Women's Elan from the British cult sneaker brand Gola is essentially the female version of the Harrier, which was introduced in 1968. The iconic retro design is both tradition-conscious and timeless, and the mix of materials including leather, textile, and synthetic perfectly complements this modern classic. The Harrier was originally launched as a multi-sport and training shoe, and over the years, it has evolved into a true fashion and lifestyle statement that has definitely stood the test of time. The Women's Elan picks up on this legacy and presents the model in a feminine form. With traditional lacing, these comfortable shoes provide excellent support for the foot.
