MOBS Shoes Information

MOBS was born from an inherent fascination and appreciation for shoes. Alexandre Benaim, founder of MOBS, was inspired to create a brand that marries utility and style after observing human migration patterns across different cultures. It started with a trip through Tanzania, where he was inspired by the beautifully crafted sandals sold in the local market. The sandals were formed from discarded rubber tire treads, leather and hand-crafted beads. They were simple, elegant and functional. In 2013, he moved from Paris, France to Los Angeles, California to chase his dream and build MOBS with the same philosophy; simple, elegant and functional. In the process, he assembled a global team of experts to realize his vision. With a diverse range of influences from art, design, travel, music and fashion, we hope to inspire people on their quest for true modern discovery. Centered around Mobility, Optimism, Beauty and Soul, MOBS creates expressive and versatile footwear with movement in mind. The shoes are a combination of modern athletic construction techniques, premium materials and effortless style to produce shoes with incredible fit, feel and comfort.
