même. was founded in 2015 by Reina Acab and Anthony Sosa, two self-taught designers and creators that grew up as children of immigrants in Seattle’s eclectic creative scene. Acab, classically trained in menswear, and Sosa, rooted in skate and streetwear, decided to bring something different to the kids business. They built a brand fueled by self-love and positive identity development — using clothing as a conduit, creating spaces for young people to feel centered and empowered. The French word même translates to “same” or “even,” evoking the intention of the brand to both equalize and elevate all kids. “As a children’s brand, we design clothing, accessories, and toys to spark curiosity and connection between children and the world around them. We have a strong image and story behind every collection — inspired by the arts, design, and architecture spaces. Collections are shaped around hands-on activities that invite young people to explore design, art, nature, and their own creativity. These community activities replace a traditional fashion show; from patch-working second hand materials to planting trees, we foster opportunities for kids to feel included, engaged, and excited to learn and create for themselves.” Welcome @memekidswear to the Thermal Brands portfolio! #childrenswear #childrensfashion #memekidswear #thermalbrands
