Founded in Paris in 2020 by Achille Gazagnes, Benoit Habfast, and Simon de Swarte, MoEa (short for Mother Earth) emerged from a desire to create low-carbon, cruelty-free footwear without compromising on style. Gazagnes, who previously co-founded a mismatched-sneaker brand, shifted his focus after discovering apple-based leather, leading to MoEa's launch via a highly successful Kickstarter campaign in 2021. The brand's signature aesthetic draws heavily from 90s sneaker culture, offering clean, retro-futuristic silhouettes designed for everyday streetwear.
