Marcel Proust presents you ... our founders!

You have probably already seen these three bearded seated wisely, they are the founders of Mr. Mustache!

And if you have never seen their smiles, we are delighted to introduce you, in the order of appearance: Antoine, Thibault and Guillaume!

For the little reminder, Antoine, Thibault and Guillaume met on the benches of the Léonard de Vinci business school. Each specialist in their field, but all animated by the same passion for the shoe, they decided to set their brand, barely graduates. 8 years and many adventures later, we are there, with more than 300 resellers in fifteen countries, 5 own stores in France and a recycling programStill Who celebrates his 1 year!

So now that you know their faces and their history, it's time to present them to you. And to get to know men behind the mustache, nothing like a good and due questionnaire! But not just any questionnaire, please. In order to maintain the spirit of elegance and the trait of humor that is our own, we have chosen the famous questionnaire of Marcel Proust, reduced here to 10 questions finely selected by an innocent hand.

Let's start with Antoine, responsible for all the financial and development aspect, it is thanks to him if Mr. Mustache opens stalls faster than his shadow.

- The quality that I appreciate in others? The audacity
- My main fault ? Gluttony… Oops!
- My favorite occupation?Surf in the sun, as soon as the opportunity arises!
- If I did not live in France, I would like to live ...In Japan ! I am fascinated by their culture.
- My favorite author? Sylvain Tesson
- My favorite painter?My brother of course! #Maximemelocco
