Dear wyde community,

With summer around the corner, I wanted to pause and say thank you. Whether you’ve been wearing our shoes, following along on social media, telling your friends about us, or simply reading our emails — it means the world. Wyde exists because of people like you.

Something that matters deeply to us as a team is this: we only make products we truly use and love ourselves. So I thought I’d give you a behind-the-scenes look at how I personally use each one of our products.

My daily go-to: Nova
This is the sneaker I wear more than anything else. Walks, work, dinner out — it just works. Lightweight, stylish, and insanely comfortable. White or Beige/Green are my favorites.

For a bold look: Arcus
Our heritage model — the chunkier, more cushioned silhouette. I love pairing the all-white or black-and-white version with jeans or denim for that elevated casual look.

Summer staple: Maia
I’ve been testing Maia for a while, and it’s become a warm-weather essential. I wear it three ways: to the beach, at the office (yes, really), and when running quick errands. Clean, airy, and easy slip on, slip off.

For movement: Hallux Active
When I’m in the gym — lifting or sprinting — this is the shoe I trust. It’s stable, responsive, and lets my foot do its job. (For mobility work though, I’m always barefoot.)

Secret weapon: Toe Separators
My feet used to be in rough shape. Toe separators have been a game-changer. I wear them around the house whenever I can — the toe splay feels incredible and reminds me of how far my feet have come.

Thank you again for being part of this journey with us. We’re just getting started.

With gratitude,

Melker
Founder/CEO
