Kavat turns 80 years

A legacy of craftsmanship and quality. This year, we celebrate 80 years of quality, craftsmanship, and innovation – a journey that began in 1945 in a small shoe factory in Kumla. With a vision of creating high-quality footwear, Ragnar Karlsson founded Skofabriken Ymer, laying the foundation for what would become Kavat.

Eight decades of craftsmanship and innovation.

 

Step by step, sole by sole, Kavat grew into what it is today. From our first children's sandals in the 1940s to the launch of the iconic preschool shoes in the 1970s. From timeless classics to pioneering sustainable materials and earning the EU Ecolabel. Through it all, we’ve stayed true to our roots – honoring tradition while embracing the future.

 

Celebrating 80 years with an iconic comeback


Inspiration from an 90s poster
Floral print
To mark this milestone, we’re bringing back a cherished piece of our history. For this season's collection, we’ve drawn inspiration from an iconic 90s poster – featuring the beloved red floral print. A vibrant symbol of energy, joy, and the colorful journey we’ve taken. Now, this pattern is revived in a timeless collection where history and innovation meet.

Haga
Haga is a timeless classic that first became a favorite in the '90s. With its iconic design and functional fit, it was loved by both kids and parents. Now, we’re paying tribute to the original by relaunching Haga – keeping the same beloved design but introducing new colors and materials. Perfect for play, exploration, and everyday adventures, it’s back - ready to create new stories! Coming soon!

 

 

Stepping into the future!

 

But our story isn’t just about the past – it’s about what comes next. We continue to evolve with the same passion and dedication, now with an even stronger focus on sustainability. With durable materials, innovative production methods, and a commitment to circular fashion, we’re shaping the future of footwear.

The future is bright, and we’re excited to celebrate 80 years with you. So, slip into a pair of Kavats – together, we honor our history and step proudly into the future, side by side.
