THEY NY, based in New York, is a small design-focused footwear project that produces minimalist sneakers. It blends decades of family expertise in Japanese sneaker creation with a minimalist design approach to craft a shoe that emphasizes essential form and function. The company frames its concept around simplicity and elegance as a basis for daily living, treating the product as a means to reduce superficial distractions. Founded in 2016 by siblings Jack and Angela Lin, the project draws inspiration from early 20th-century design movements such as Bauhaus and Suprematism.

The sneakers have drawn attention from design-focused media and have collaborated with brands including The Arrivals and Upton. THEY NY presents itself as an emerging design project guided by a young, passionate team pursuing a minimalist philosophy through its design and product.
