Nowadays, great attention is paid to the appearance of shoes and clothes, while designers often completely forget about another important aspect - convenience and reliability. Those brands that manage to combine style and durability in their collections quickly become recognized around the world. The Camel Active brand also belongs to these.
About Brand
The history of the Camel Active brand is relatively short - the first collection of clothes with this name was released in the not-so-distant 1977. At the same time, the source from which the creators drew inspiration from the Camel Trophy car race is somewhat unusual.
It occurred to the founders that a person who loves extreme conditions and often finds himself in them may need special clothes and shoes that will be equally practical and stylish. Such an approach over the four decades of the company's existence can be called the brand philosophy.
Thus, clothes began to be produced since 1977, a year later the first collection of shoes appeared, and today the assortment of the company's products is supplemented with accessories, that is, you can be dressed in Camel Active from head to toe. The race that inspired the founders of the company has been gone for more than a decade and a half, but the brand itself has been successfully developing, and its stores, numbering hundreds, are represented in dozens of countries in Europe and Asia.
One of the successful decisions was cooperation with large manufacturers of shoes - for example, Salamander - which made it possible to make the company's products accessible to a wide range of consumers.
Similar cooperation was established in other lines - clothes, watches, bags, and so on.
Product Features
It is not so easy to find common features that could describe the entire Camel Active product range at once - it is too wide. However, the greatest popularity in our area has so far received shoes, and usually it is they who have in mind, mentioning the name Camel Active. What is interesting, initially the brand was guided by men's shoes, however, in our country today women's shoes are even more in demand, although the manufacturer has never refused a starting position.
If we talk about the target audience of Camel Active shoes, then it is best described by the second word in the brand name - the speech is about active, mainly young people who can’t sit still and for whom there are no barriers. Whatever form factor a particular shoe model has, it will certainly be convenient, and not only for walking, but also for running, climbing, and many other similar entertainments.
With such an active use, the shoes should definitely be durable, otherwise it will be enough just a few times. The creators select only the highest quality materials, because they understand that the owner can easily find himself in a situation where there is no possibility to change shoes immediately.
The developers do not forget about the style - all Camel Active brand products, whether they are shoes, clothes or accessories, certainly look stylish. It is best combined with other things in casual style, that is, these are typical everyday things in which you can go almost anywhere - except in an expensive restaurant or on the red carpet, they will be inappropriate.
At the same time, the male audience often prefers this particular brand due to a slight touch of brutality, a kind of natural severity that invariably comes to mind when these clothes and shoes are created specifically for extreme conditions.
clothing
It is simply amazing how versatile Camel Active is when it comes to clothing from this brand. In the model range of the manufacturer there is literally everything that can come in handy - from summer T-shirts and shorts to winter down jackets and Alaskan jackets.
The casual style itself involves a combination of incongruous, and in order to confidently experiment within it, you will need a considerable amount of different clothes.
In addition to other types of clothing already mentioned, Camel Active also produces:
- leather jackets;
- jackets;
- shirts;
- jeans;
- vests;
- windbreakers;
- jumpers;
- polo and much more, including even branded socks.
In other words, no matter what kind of clothes the buyer needs, he can be absolutely sure that there will definitely be something suitable in the Camel Active lineups.
It should be borne in mind that all the clothes of this brand are inherent in the already mentioned light roughness. This does not mean that it is unstable, sometimes this brutality does not even strike the eye at all, but nevertheless it is a bit not something that could be attributed to high fashion. Such clothing is good to wear it every day, it will not let its owner down in extreme heat or cold, will withstand rainfall and wear for several years, but you probably can’t wear it for an elegant event.
However, this is the only drawback that you can think of for Camel Active clothes, and so, given its target audience, it is extremely close to ideal.
Women's shoes
All over the world, Camel Active shoes are more associated with men, but in our area, the fair sex paid special attention to it. Designers do not refuse women attention, and specially for them they created several models of women's shoes - as stylish and practical as everything else that Camel Active is produced.
At the same time, branded brutality in women's collections is absent - the designers suggested that the ladies did not need it, and left only convenience and appearance.
Most often you can find these types of camel Active shoes:
- sandals;
- boots;
- sneakers;
- shoes.
With shoes and sneakers, everything is clear, but sandals and shoes will probably require a few additional words to describe.If we talk about shoes, ordinary boats are the most common - with the difference that they are much more convenient than similar shoes from other manufacturers.
The buyer will not be able to find exquisite shoes for a chic event in the model range, but the manufacturer does not chase it, his goal is to make simple and beautiful shoes that you want to wear every day and which can withstand the most active use for a long time.
These shoes, not being extravagant or defiant, go well with the office style. The same can be said about sandals.
Accessories
Given the variety of accessories offered by Camel Active, several other brands could be created at once. However, the developers, not being able to independently produce such a wide range of products, prefer to sell the license to eminent specialized manufacturers, leaving behind the development of models.
Let us briefly go over all types of accessories that this brand offers.
Bags & Backpacks
It is this type of accessories in our country that has gained immense popularity, and another question is what is more popular - shoes or bags! At least, the backpacks are fully consistent with the tourist and adventure direction of the brand development, which is why they are very popular among outdoor enthusiasts.
Working on the creation of women's clothing, Camel Active could not ignore the beautiful half of humanity - bags were created for them that, in the best traditions, emphasize the fashionable style of casual.
Wallets
This direction is a relatively small segment of production, however, it is distinguished by several very interesting leather solutions that will help complement the overall image of both a brutal young man and a defenseless girl.
Hats
Agree, it would be strange to produce clothes and shoes for extreme conditions, but at the same time completely ignore hats. Given the specifics of the brand, in its collections you can find only those hats that, having a sporty appearance, protect well from the sun - these are a variety of caps and baseball caps.
At the moment, the creators working on a variety of clothes for extreme conditions, for some reason, did not foresee that you might need a hat that protects against the cold - caps are probably the only kind of clothing that is not represented among Camel Active products.
Clock
The finishing touch to the image is a wristwatch. Camel Active sold the license for their release under his own name not just anywhere, namely to Switzerland - to the place where the best watches in the world are made, and although not the most popular manufacturer is engaged in mass production, for the reliability of the accessory, including in extreme conditions temperatures and loads, you can rely on completely.
