What is Djinns?

Djinns is a sneaker and accessories label from Mülheim an der Ruhr in Germany, rooted in streetwear culture. Its signature is a range of shoes and accessories in matching colours and fabrics, so that items can be worn as coordinated sets.

History

Products and positioning

The range includes:

  • Sneakers and casual shoes with seasonal fabric and print variations
  • Caps
  • Bags and backpacks
