In 1877, Antonio Fluxá went all the way from the island of Majorca to
England to learn about shoemaking. Whatever he learned there, he put
into action immediately and founded a shoe company that his grandson
Lorenzo turned into
Camper Shoes
in 1975. Today, the family's fourth generation is at the helm, the
company is still based in Majorca and its shoes are sold worldwide. If
you were lucky, you received an invite to this fun-and-games Campy
party held in Germany recently, to celebrate the launch of the
Spring/Summer 08 collection. AstroTurf, retro gear, great music and
sand in your sandals. We're in.
