Camper and ISSEY MIYAKE women’s line presents their second collaboration—unveiling the new Karst Finch—designed by Camper and Satoshi Kondo, designer of ISSEY MIYAKE. The new silhouette was first introduced at the presentation of the ISSEY MIYAKE Spring Summer 2026 collection last October in Paris. In Hong Kong, the collection will be available at the ISSEY MIYAKE Harbour City store.
Established in 1971 with a unique design philosophy and a truly innovative spirit, ISSEY MIYAKE is known for an ongoing exploration of fabric and its relationship with the wearer’s body. By focusing on the unfulfilled space in between, the house conveys a sense of ease and universality unbound by Eastern vs. Western conventions of garment design.
Drawing from the heritage of both brands, this partnership celebrates creativity, emphasising craft in everyday life. Both brands integrate quality materials and technologies for practical use and comfort, with a touch of playfulness. Karst Finch is the first sneaker of the partnership, inspired by the colourful plumage of finches, the small, endearing songbirds. The design mounts a lightweight elastic upper on the nature-inspired outsole of Camper’s Karst, named after the rocky geological formation.
Karst Finch evokes a sense of freedom. The notion of walking free and unbound is reflected in the design’s comfortable fit and lightweight feel. The Mary-Jane inspired stretch-knit upper offers extra comfort while Camper’s ReXarge® supercritical foam midsole boosts cushioning, and a Vibram outsole enhances grip.
Four different colourways are featured, in a versatile palette of black, pink, yellow, green, blue, tan and grey. Each pair of shoes comes with two pairs of socks in matching or contrasting tones, inviting the wearer to mix, match and personalise the look.
