Paris CrossFit Louvre

A small running brand from Seoul has reached one of the most historic spaces in French CrossFit. DARIMATI's partner is CrossFit Louvre Paris. Opened in 2012 as the fourth CrossFit Affiliate in France, it is an iconic box that helped shape the early CrossFit culture in the country.

Countless coaches and box owners have trained and built communities here, and every day the box still runs sessions spanning running, lifting, WODs and HYROX. It is here that CrossFit Louvre coaches Moncef and Anne have started wearing DARIMATI BR-001 in their real training.

Trusted in real training.

Moncef and Anne, coaches at CrossFit Louvre Paris, train in DARIMATI every day. From running to lifting to WODs, they rely on the grip and stability that hybrid training demands. This isn't a product test — it's part of their daily training.

A Brand Born in Seoul

A small running brand from Seoul has made its way onto the training floors of Paris. DARIMATI began with one idea: to make not a shoe for faster times, but a shoe that lets you move more safely. It started as a simple wish from our founder to create shoes his wife, who had weak ankles, could comfortably train in again — and that wish naturally grew into BR-001, a hybrid running shoe that bridges running and functional training.

That's why we put balance before records, and stability before speed. This philosophy is now resonating not only in Korea but also in France, where people approach training in a similar way.

Why CrossFit Louvre?

It all started at CrossFit Louvre in Paris. We believed that the verdict of coaches who teach and train every day matters more than giving shoes to a single famous athlete. So we sent BR-001 to CrossFit Louvre coaches Moncef and Anne, and both began wearing DARIMATI in real training, including running, lifting and WODs.

For coaches who spend most of their day in the gym, shoes aren't just equipment — they're the training partner they spend the most time with. So what we wanted to hear wasn't a quick "they're good," but real stories from the floor: which movements felt stable, and what could be improved.

Moncef and Anne's Real Training

CrossFit Louvre coaches Moncef and Anne wear BR-001 in their real training. They've tested the shoes across a wide range of sessions moving between running, lifting and functional training, and share their firsthand experience directly with DARIMATI.

Together, we're learning when people who train every day feel stable, and what would make the shoe even better.

What the Coaches Agree on About DARIMATI

• Feels natural switching between running and lifting.
• Great grip gives you confidence in every movement.
• Feels stable even when lifting.
• Stays comfortable even after hours of wear.
• A great fit for hybrid training.

One Team, Not One Star

When running a brand, sponsoring a single famous athlete can be the faster route. But DARIMATI chose a different path.

"We'd rather grow with one team than with one famous athlete."

Coaches wear the shoes every day, members experience them firsthand, and that feedback shapes the next product. To us, that's the healthiest way for a brand to grow.

A New Journey Begins in France

CrossFit Louvre is DARIMATI's first partner in Europe. A small brand from Seoul is being tested on the training floors of Paris, and that experience feeds into our next product. We don't want to be a brand that just sells shoes — we want to be a brand that builds its products together with the people who train. This journey has only just begun.

Designed for the Hybrid Moment.
