'the country camper' by jasper morrison and camper

london-based designer jasper morrison has teamed up with spanish shoemaker camper
to reinvent the first shoe they had ever sold, the 'camaleon'. 'the country trainer' is a reinvention
of the original shoe from the late 1920s, which was a practical, hand-stitched shoe constructed
out of canvas, tyre treads and cut-to-size hemp thread. the new design still keeps true to
the functional nature and simple spirit of the classic in a more contemporary and sporty shape.
canvas fabric is paired with suede leather for the body of the shoe while camper's trademark
'ideal stitching' construction provides comfort and flexibility.

'the country trainer', along with jasper morrison's latest designs are presented at his
london shop in correlation with london design week 2010. a second exhibition entitled,
'trays from around the world' exhibits the studio's work, tracing parallels to the ideas
and shapes that inform morrison's creative language.
