Our take
The world is becoming more interconnected and travel is the easiest it has ever been. As a result, the desire for adventure has increased and so too has the demand for appropriate and fashionable travel outerwear. Tropicfeel was created as a versatile solution that provides lifelong travel pieces, allowing people to focus more on traveling than packing the right gear.
The company is also eager to be environmentally respectful, so to ensure the clothes and shoes aren't only being used once or twice a year, the products are suitable for all weather and locations. The aim is to create garments and shoes that are appropriate for everyday city life as well as more extreme terrain.
Tropicfeel have scaled quickly, reflecting its customers’ desire for the products as well as showcasing the company’s potential for further growth. With ambitious plans to become the go-to travel brand for millions of travellers, the company is concentrating on increasing its sales volume, helped along by a five million euro financing round secured in 2023.
