The Anna collection was introduced by Camper and ISSEY MIYAKE as sculptural footwear designed by Satoshi Kondo to combine a sock-like fit with a structured silhouette. The designs pair a precision-knit upper made from a TENCEL-blend fabric derived from sustainably sourced wood fibres with a pointed toe and a low heel.
The breathable upper wraps around the foot and lower leg to provide a close fit, while the streamlined outsole creates a contrast between flexible textile construction and rigid support. The collection is offered as both a slip-on shoe and a higher-cut boot. The new footwear incorporates a ridged rubber outsole designed for everyday traction and durability while maintaining a minimalist profile. The slip-on style is available in black and beige, while the boot is offered in black, blue, and dark navy.
