When the hippie era was in full swing from 1965 to 1971, the married couple Doug and Susie Tompkins travelled through California in a colourful station wagon. Back then, the middle class‘ prosperity ideals were questioned and social taboos were broken. The desire for a more peaceful life was increasing constantly. The Flower-Power movement was at its height, which was also reflected in the era’s fashion. Colourful and striking clothes were fashionable. Flared trousers and flower tops with matching headbands had to be part of any hippie’s wardrobe.
In 1968, the Tompkins’ founded the fashion brand Esprit in San Francisco. The style matched the era: creative & genuine. They sold their self-sewn clothes from their car’s boot. Three years later, they already founded Esprit de Corp. and opened a branch in Hong Kong. Since 1976, Esprit is also represented in Germany. Initially, they started with Dusseldorf, which was followed by Ratingen, where the main office is still located.
Today, Esprit is a well-known brand. It stands for soft shapes and colours and has always been keeping up with the times. Jewellery and shoes have been added to the clothes collections.
