Moclau 3.0 ‘Triple Mesh’

Monday, May 22nd, 2017

For the second quarter of our collection for Spring/Summer 2017 we continued the work on our Moclau silhouette and created the perfect summer sneaker. With a new mix of materials we were able to make the Moclau 3.0 ‘Triple Mesh’ even more lightweight and breathable. The upper of the Moclau 3.0 ‘Triple Mesh’ boasts different types of mesh as well as neoprene and a sock-like ankle sit with a netted structure made out of rough mesh for the heel part. The sneaker features a sprinkled EVA-sole as well as an inner cork sole in order to absorb moisture and prevent smelly and sweaty feet. Therefore you can also comfortably wear the Moclau 3.0 barefoot in the warmer spring/summer months ahead.

The Moclau 3.0 ‘Triple Mesh’ is now available in different colourways such as black/black, black/grey, grey, sand and white through our own online shop and selected retailers.

DJINN’S X DIFFERANTLY

Monday, March 20th, 2017

For our newest artist collab project we connected with French/German creative duo DFT in order to create a new version of the Easy Run sneaker and a snapback cap. All products are available now on our online shop and via selected retailers.

Words from the artists:

“With our distinctive unbroken line style, we employ highly refined drawing techniques to depict familiar mass-produced objects, as well as elements of the living world, thus exploring concepts such as continuity, identity and mortality. The core of our work consists in playing with lines and deconstructing complex imagery into minimalist two dimensional art, blurring boundaries between realism and reinterpretation.

For our collaboration with DJINN’S we wanted to keep faithful to our minimalist yet playful style. We opted for sober elegant colors and created a bit of an absurd pattern referring to a weapon threesome (including a mighty banana) and we reinterpreted DJINN’S logo in one single line. That was a blast.” – DFT

A OH MY Film

For our newest artistic collaboration we got together with Dortmund based studio YAWN – which means YEAH AWESOME WOW NICE. The studio was founded in 2010 by the two designers Sandra Greiling & Annika Janssen. The result is a black & white, vegan version of our Easy Run and a 6 Panel Snapback Cap, a 5 Panel Flatcap and a Curved Visor Cap. The material mix for the Easy Run is a combination of casual and performance material, PU taping, polyester mesh and printed polyester lining on the inside.


Words from the artists:

“Over the last years we mainly focused on music artwork, poster design, merchandise and logo design. We are not really after a specific style, but one of our characteristic features of
our work is pretty much always the mix of analog and digital parts. Handmade type as well as patterns and textures are our passion. Therefore typography and illustration build a
substantial field of our creations. The same goes for experiments with analog tools and the resulting coincidences. Hereby everything doesn’t need to be clean because we especially like the imperfect, analog look.

Regarding our collab with DJINNS, we created different black & white brushstroke patterns and a corporate logo. Being big sneakerheads ourselves, it was our concern to design the sneakers the way, we like to have them on our feet the best way we can imagine, simple and cool. Real easy without any knick-knack and at the same time distinct.” – YAWN

 


Of course we would like to celebrate the release with all of you. The official release party will be held at Oma Doris in Dortmund on August 27th 2016 together with the BAUNZ guys. There will be free shots & candies, too (while supplies last) 😉 The collab itself will be available online and at selected retailers early September.
