About Swims
Our Philosophy
The philosophy of marrying true function with timeless classics is the foundation of SWIMS and initially gave birth to our Classic galosh. Throughout the years, with the same philosophy, we have developed the SWIMS loafer line. By accompanying our loafers and galoshes with perfectly befitting footwear, apparel, and accessories, we have grown to serve international urban travellers’ lifestyle with a need for function, quality, and design.
Through this, over the past 10 years, SWIMS has become a vibrant and sought-after lifestyle brand. The more we grow, the more committed we are to our core philosophy. During the development of new projects, we humorously often use the phrase: “to SWIMSify”. But make no mistake; this playful approach to design is always matched by an equally large commitment to the quality and the functionality of our products. Who says what is fun and friendly cannot also be great?
Our Mission
SWIMS fosters a positive, inclusive and nurturing culture. Our relationships are built on trust and mutual respect, honouring authenticity, integrity, teamwork and collective pride in our heritage. We create high-quality, long-lasting products designed to be worn for years.
True to our mission of reinventing classics, we create “Smart Solutions” which are smart, elegant, weather-friendly and infused with utility. Our pieces are designed to travel throughout daily journeys, from morning commutes to evenings out and everything in between.
We carefully select our partners, consider them a part of our extended family, and work to create and maintain a united spirit of innovation.
We take social and environmental factors into consideration whenever we make supplier decisions and insist our partners meet the highest ethical and legal standards in their businesses.
