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.

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
