MoEa is a French footwear brand based in Paris. The company was founded by Achille Gazagnes, Benoit Habfast, and Simon de Swarte. The brand marries a passion for sustainability and stylish footwear to create vegan sneakers. The line of bio-sneakers is fully recyclable and PETA-approved.
Each sneaker is made from one of five different fruits and plants. Featuring an urban and modern design, the organic materials are turned into comfortable substitutes to leather and plastic. MoEa shoes are made of either apple, pineapple, cactus, corn, or grape, all of which are salvaged from food industry waste. Customers can choose from two colorways: a striking solid color that corresponds to the shoe's fruit fibers or a classic solid white with colored accents.
