Overview

Tagline

More than a brand, CALA1789 is an attitude.

CALA 1789 is a French menswear brand founded by Damien Calamuso on the French Riviera in 2010. Starting with a reinterpreted espadrille, it has since expanded to include ready-to-wear, shoes, and accessories. The brand’s motto is “Plus qu’une marque, CALA1789 est une attitude.” Its wardrobe is built around a Riviera-inspired sensibility and everyday wearability, from the seaside to the city.

The official website presents it as one of the brand’s clothing lines, featuring functions such as stretch, breathability, wind resistance, quick drying, wrinkle resistance, and UV protection. In relation to the main wardrobe inspired by the Riviera, it serves a role centered on greater ease of movement and ease of care.
