ADRESSE clothes are thought out in their details and committed, exactly like ME.LAND sneakers.

Their vision of clothing is based on the meeting between their taste for well-thought-out objects and their desire to produce neat and beautiful pieces. A vision that turns into a challenge when they also want to build their development from recycled or natural materials, adapted to life in the city. Their pieces are easy to live with. In the choice of materials, in the weight and in the construction of the garments, they favor movement, ease, comfort and functionality.

ADRESSE pieces are practical to wear and easy to live with. They integrate the constraints of everyday life and mobility from their design.

ADRESSE philosophy totally resonate in ME.LAND approach to sneakers: unisex, comfortable and committed shoes to be worn every day.

The link between these two Montmartre neighbours seemed obvious: a 100% vegan and recycled sneaker made from marine plastic waste that adapts to all your looks and all your moves with its exclusive elastic laces inspired from triathlon. A promise of a style that gives meaning to everyday life.

The ME.LAND x ADDRESSE collaboration is a perfect combo, the meeting of two French brands born in 2018 that are committed on a daily basis to limiting their environmental impact by producing 100% made in the EU.

Trace your path with inspired sneakers that are as unique as you are.

JuliE GAsnieR is an independent multidisciplinary artist whose research axis is articulated around the body poetic languages.

In her work, the emphasis is put on vibration, on the instability of sensitive impressions. The forms call us; femininity and freedom stand out on the border of abstraction, in the need to disfigure our representations.

Author, composer, performer, JuliE GAsnieR has been for years the emotional force of remarkable pop music bands, such as LALAfactory, SuperBravo. or lately under her own name JuliE GAsnieR.

We loved her drawing serie "Primary Portraits"It is a playful and wild "hymn" toward differences and singularity, which found an immediate echo with ME.LAND philosophy. That is why we offered JuliE GAsnieR collaborations. At first she instantly proposed an extension of the serie we loved and imagined a variation entitled "Primary Kisses" for the ME.LAND collaboration.

For a second collaboration and after the “Primary Kisses” different variations with kissing couple, “OhOhO my choir” offers us a graphic pattern adjusted to the design of the shoe. 3 stylized and minimalist faces appear who seem to sing like one man in their colorful beards. A playful balance between naive figures and geometric elegance inspired by Bauhaus. A unique model in primary colors circled in black, a limited series, signed and made to order.

Each pair is made on order and will be a unique model, a true work of art because each couple kissing will be different.

JuliE GAsnieR uses artisan tattoo inks to hand paint each ME.LAND shoe. A contemporary way of reinventing the patina technique, finalized by an artisanal glaze for exceptional durability over time. Each pair designed will be a unique model, a true work of art.

The ME.LAND sneakers shooting was carried out at the Jean-Jacques Henner National Museum.

Jean-Jacques Henner is a painter from the end of the 19th century inspired by classical Italian painting. More than a museum, the artist's house which hosts his collections is a crossroads of the arts in the heart of the Monceau plain, a district which was at the end of the 19th century the center of an unprecedented artistic and intellectual profusion.

Today this museum-workshop welcomes and encourages young talents from all disciplines, reviving its original vocation as a place of creation and artistic exchanges. An obvious place for ME.LAND who works with many artists: carftsmen, photographers, videomakers, musicians, street artists, graphic designers and illustrators ...

For this photo shoots, ME.LAND asked several artists from the French music scene to be the image of the collection : Abel Cheret, Adrienne Pauly, DaM, Orfeu, The Rodeo, Rosy Teixeira. We did not want to erase or get the property their characters, each of them have taken the pose with their own look and have chosen the shoes they preferred.

Suyer is a young multidisciplinary artist inspired by Edvard Munch, Salvador Dali or Gérard Garouste. In a world he considers saturated with sounds and images, Suyer offers an exploration of our lost paradises through his poetic and silent character Susu. Lost paradises that collide with our imaginations, made up of lived or invented stories, fears or dreams. He becomes our imaginary friend, our inner voice that questions our daily life along our route.

ME.LAND is a French sneaker label. It is great adventure launched in 2018 with the ambition to offer a alternative, couture, comfortable, elegant, unique, responsible, low-carbone and close to its community. They are much more than simple shoes. From the mix of inspirations, materials and colours emerges a daily behaviour. Since its launch ME.LAND offers a universe created and supported by a community of artists: singers, clipers, street artists, illustrators, photographers, actors ...

The encounter was obvious. Why remain indifferent to everything around us? Nothing is ever for granted, the months of lock down have proved it to us. Let's be curious. Let us look at the world with envy, kindness and poetry along our way. Each step will be a way to take Süsü further and to look at our daily lives differently.

Staring: Suyer

Suyer uses craft tattoo inks to paint each shoe with a brush. A contemporary way to reinvent the artisanal patina technique ! Finalized by a natural wax polish made by hand for an exceptional long lasting shoe.

The result is amazing, a corresponding mismatched, unique work, numbered and signed by the artist for each pair, a tattooed reverie to wear everyday.

P. is a Parisian street artist. It is called Pierre Merriaux with 2 R and its logo with 3 P. He roams every night the Parisian bitumen, seizes objects, walls, cobblestones or mirrors and marks its print in a few minutes with colored painting bombs. Today, his works awaken the world of street art in Paris. His works unfold an intriguing suite of repetitive motifs combining curves and organic forms straight inspired by the world of biology. His drawings use primary colors that burst in the street in the light of day.

ME.LAND is craftsmen made shoe brand. Inspired from good boys with a rebel heart. It offers an unusual mix of inspirations, materials and colours with a great attention to details. It emerges a daily behaviour. A way to make one’s own route. The philosophy of this adventure is quite simple : Stay wise ? Follow the rules ? Why not. Provided that there is no way, one can erase his own character !

The meeting of the brand and the artist was obvious. It allows to combine the obsession of gesture, matter and beauty on the same object.

Pierre Merriaux uses tattoo inks to hand-paint each shoe with a marker and a practised gesture. A contemporary way to reinvent the patina technique ! The sneakers will be finalized by a natural wax polish made by hand for an exceptional long lasting item.

An astonishing result, an object of art to wear every day, a unique work numbered and signed by the artist on each pair.

Thomas V is an artist and craftsman jeweler. He has launched his eponymous ThomasV brand several years ago. Both simple and elegant yet simultaneously enigmatic, the creator has entered a thought-provoking Universe with his work. Transcending merely abstract forms, Thomas.V seeks to transmit his sensory relationship with raw materials through his pieces. "There are no rules. I draw inspiration from images, sounds, animals, even dreams. I transform the core idea to eliminate the superfluous features, ensuring the jewel is as simple, clean and refined as possible."

The meeting of the two designers was inevitable.

It is the perfect combination of attention to detail, gesture and meaning with the same object.

ThomasV imagined with ME.LAND a protective compass shoe. Each shoe features a Saint Christopher medal, the patron of travelers and a key of the winds to save us and guide us. A much needed metaphor in our daily lives.

In a world of unbridled, marketed and standardized consumption, where quality, singularity, know-how and human relations have less and less space, creation has more and more difficulties to emerge and meet its audience without colossal financial means...

Driven by the desire to break with a crazy system, the Jean-Louis concept aims to present creators and sublimate their achievements, while providing support for the communication of their brand, the manufacture and distribution of their products.
