Time - there doesn’t seem to be enough of it these days and some even consider it to be the ultimate luxury. Yet time is what drives Menno van Meurs, co-founder of Amsterdam-based denim brand Tenue de Nîmes. From jeans to vintage Eames chairs, slow drip coffee to suede Red Wing boots, Menno embraces “the good things in life.” It’s not a coincidence that all of these are crafted to last, to stand the test of time. In Tenue de Nîmes’ studio space in the west of Amsterdam and Menno’s family home, it’s almost as though time stands still. Treasures have been gathered from all corners of the globe. From Tokyo, Japan to Saint Paul, Minnesota, each object has its own story to tell. Amongst the crafted chaos, a timeless harmony rings true that can only be identified as Tenue de Nîmes.
