Still Pelotas, Still Got Balls: Camper celebrates 30 Years of Pelotas in its latest campaign
by Adriano Batista
Camper’s Pelotas shoe is thirty years old. The brand is marking the occasion not with a grand retrospective, but by simply continuing the story. The new campaign’s message is straightforward: “STILL PELOTAS. STILL GOT BALLS. SINCE 1995.”
The shoe’s design has always been clear in its inspiration. It draws from old, hand-stitched footballs, echoing the spirit of sports pioneers. Over three decades, it has become a cornerstone of the Mallorca-based brand’s identity. Its construction explains its longevity. The Pelotas Ariel is made exclusively in Europe. Its sole is made of 87 individual rubber balls, stitched completely around to a high-quality leather upper. This vegetable-tanned leather is sourced and finished in Europe, and each pair comes with a lifetime guarantee.
For Fall/Winter 2025, the collection includes the original shoe and a boxing boot style from the brand’s archives. They feature a hand-brushed finish and new color combinations, like black and green, alongside a new color-blocked TWINS option.
