Meet Pierre-Yves & Charly,
Founders of Elyzion
ORIGIN
It all started with a group of friends, young or prospective parents, who found happiness in the simplest of things: Nature, connecting and bonding with others.
Despite having it all, we were always in pursuit of our lost freedom, the very freedom and energy we enjoyed in our youth.
What is better than a simple gathering between family and friends?
A fishing weekend getaway where great stories are shared over good food and drinks by a pond, river or the sea.
We realized we shared two common goals and dreams:
- To protect our way of life and guarantee that the simple joys of nature will continue to surround our children for many years to come.
- To help others take a step back from their relentless urban lifestyles with ethical designs.
Then and there, we decided it was time to stop being passive spectators and start making an impact.
We began focusing these efforts on a meaningful project by combining our passion, skills, knowledge and resources to create a brand that would help us achieve our mission.
Elyzion was born.
Philosophy
Behind Elyzion's designs comes big dreams. Through innovation, our apparel aims to embody the resurgence of Nature, inspiring us to rediscover the joy found in the simplest of things.
Our products are built with sustainability in mind, reconnecting the urban adventurer with the great wilderness, where freedom runs through the air we breathe and the resources we should preserve and protect.
Through its products and on behalf of its community, ELYZION is acting to protect Nature's most precious resource, the true essence of life: Water.
On our own, we are helpless. Strength is in the collective effort.
Let's stop dreaming, and let's start acting now, together.
