Founded in 1718, FLORIS VAN BOMMEL combines 300 years of craftsmanship with modern management under the guidance of the ninth generation of the family, which has led the company to achieve a stable annual turnover of around €60 million. For next summer’s SS26 collection, the brand offers elegant and timeless basic models that combine sporty silhouettes, innovative material combinations and custom-developed soles. Exclusive Italian leather, customised prints and colour accents give the various models their unmistakable FLORIS VAN BOMMEL character. Divided into SPORT, CASUAL and DRESSED segments, both the men’s and women’s lines achieve a confident balance between casual comfort and urban modernity, with a summery vibe that transitions effortlessly from sandy beaches to city streets and elegant dinners.
The SPORT line is dynamic, comfort-oriented and innovative in terms of materials, with modern running shoes, retro trainers and urban interpretations of activewear looks, while the CASUAL line is synonymous with relaxed elegance, characterised by maritime influences, the use of high-quality suede leathers and understated silhouettes for loafers, boots and contemporary hybrids. Finally, the DRESSED line is the stylistic heart of the collection, with progressive derbies, modern classics and characterful prints, all made in Europe.
