History
Thoni Mara is a trademark, which became a synonym for many athletes – runners, trekkers, mountaineers, bikers, orienteering runners, etc. The clothes are attractive not only because of its unique structure but also because their excellent function.
A good athlete can appreciate the positive sides of good materials. Probably the most remarkable fact of the Thoni mara brand is that all the clothes are made in Germany. Its a high-quality product made in Germany.
The story began in 2007 when the idea of a highly functional collection meant for athletes was born. Christian Schwab an ambitious sportsman put the name to the collection “Thoni mara” (coming from “Marathoni” – marathon).
The aim of the company is the development of clothes that could surpass the usual products with its functionality. The prime attention is on the technical side of the product. Clothes are of high quality, useful and modern.
The first test of clothes was on 6 May 2007 at the Bamberger Weltkulturerbelauf (21,1 km) marathon. The clothes were worn by 22 runners. They were all overwhelmed by the quality, functionality and design of clothes. It was proven that the idea has to be developed further. The first collection was presented in July 2007. One of the peak of the trademark was when it was named the finalist (in sports wear category) at the biggest fair of sports equipment in Munich – ISPO Brand New Award 2010.
