Swims

Having been a fan of vintage galoshes for many years, Norwegian Johan Ringdal decided to establish the Swims brand in 2006 with the aim of reviving the humble overshoe. The company’s modern take on the traditional galosh was an almost overnight success and, today, Swims are offered in over 25 different countries by upwards of 700 of the world’s most highly regarded retailers.

Swims believes in combining function with timeless design, a philosophy that has extended beyond overshoes to include the brand’s collections of loafers, boots, swimwear and accessories. Their seemingly disparate collections are united by their unparalleled ability to cope with getting wet, whether it be on a rainy autumn day or a summer séjour by the sea.
