The Amsterdam based JOUEZ LES ENFANTS is a menswear brand that was launched in 2018. The non seasonal collection consists of contemporary classics for the less ordinary; and is all about mixing cultures and playing with styles. Founders/designers Spike Spijker and Mies Splinter, who live and work in a 70s patio bungalow with their 15yr old son Piet, take their inspiration from the style of early 20th century artists (like Nicolas de Staël) and mix this with sportswear and Japanese influences. The collection is built using mostly left-over, natural, fabrics and dead stock garments. This results in limited editions of design items and unique hand made pieces, all made or altered in Amsterdam.
