“Lutteurs” wear fabrics from Getzner

What do La Lutte and Getzner have in common? The national sport has a long tradition in Senegal and damask is also worn at traditional festivities. This is how the idea for a special photo series in Dakar was born. 

The well-known “La Lutte” fighter L’an 2000 and his training partners Abdou and Ibrahima can be seen posing on the beach of the “Mosquée de la divinité” in Dakar. Photographed and co-organized by Stefan Kleinowitz and Keba, the sportsmen brilliantly showcase the Getzner fabrics – made in Austria. The garments were designed and tailored by a local tailor in Senegal. “It was a special honor for us to combine this wonderful tradition with our fabrics“, says Tobias König, Head of Business Unit Africa.
