Esprit

San Francisco, 1968 – Susie and Doug Tompkins founded their own fashion label at this special time and place. This was the birth of Esprit and the start of a unique success story.

Today we are present in more than 40 countries. Esprit collections are found in almost 900 of our own retail stores as well as 7,800 wholesale locations, including franchise shops and department stores. 
 

There is one thing that has never changed: Esprit’s special spirit. It is still shaped by the Californian attitude towards life – creative, authentic and relaxed. International designers design a collection every month with that classic Esprit look: a feel for trends, a love of detail and meeting the demand for high quality. Whether streetwear or sportswear, party styles, denim, bodywear, accessories or shoes, you will find the perfect outfit for every occasion at Esprit. We also attach great importance to a good price-quality ratio as well as sustainability and fair production.



“If you feel good, you look good” – the philosophy of our two founders is still our drive and aspiration today in all things fashion. And we are pleased when our styles help you to lead a life and find a style of your very own.
