Seduce The Rain
SPRING/SUMMER 2013
MEN’S FOOTWEAR
THE SWIMS STORY Prelude SWIMS is a Norwegian lifestyle brand, which is known for reinventing the galosh (overshoe). By adding additional functionality, lots of colors and a contemporary shape, the company has created a humble renaissance for the galosh throughout major metropolitan cities around the world. SWIMS strives to create functional and smart products with paramount quality. The SWIMS Loafer Continuing the SWIMS’ philosophy of ”Reinventing Classics”, I have turned my focus to a real classic - the loafer. The style has been made for decades and is popularly worn across continents. It’s an evergreen. Being made of delicate materials, its utility is limited. Most of them have one serious limitation in terms of functionality: They don’t combine well with water. I wanted to extend their utility by using high-tech materials and state-of-the-art technology. My objective was to design a loafer I could wear in the ocean so that I don’t scrape my feet on rocks or coral, something to wear by the pool or on the deck of a boat, a comfy loafer I could “loaf ” around in a beach town instead of my flip-flops. (No offence to flip-flops – they’re great too!) The SWIMS loafer is a product of my own experience, my appreciation of functional design, and my obsession with altering classics. Enjoy the summer! Johan R., Founder.
