Esprit apparel and accessories

Esprit is a global fashion brand that originated in San Francisco, California, in 1968, founded by Susie and Doug Tompkins. The brand gained international fame for its casual, sunny lifestyle aesthetic and its commitment to social and environmental responsibility long before it became a mainstream industry standard.

Manufacturing for Esprit occurs across a global network of suppliers, primarily located in Asia, including countries such as China, Vietnam, and Bangladesh, as well as several locations in Europe and Turkey. This diversified supply chain allows the brand to manage large-scale production for its international markets.

Historically, the brand's ownership shifted towards its Asian operations. Following various corporate restructuring phases, the brand is currently owned by Esprit Holdings Limited. While the company maintains significant operational hubs in Germany and Hong Kong, it is listed on the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong. The brand continues to focus on its classic roots while navigating modern retail transformations.
