Our Story
Built From Love.
Driven By Innovation.
UMEI began with one family’s mission to solve a real problem and became a new way to rethink comfort, recovery, and movement.
The Beginning
It Started With Luna
Luna was an athlete who spent long hours training, competing, and pushing herself every day.
Like many active people, recovery became just as important as performance. But after intense sessions, sore feet and tired legs made comfort hard to find.
What existed in the market felt generic, bulky, or uninspired.
There had to be a better solution.
A Mother's Mission
Maple Saw the Need
As Luna’s mother, Maple wanted to create something better not just for her daughter, but for anyone who lives an active life.
Something lightweight. Something supportive. Something beautiful enough to wear every day.
That idea became the beginning of UMEI.

The World Responded
What started as a personal solution quickly resonated with thousands of people looking for better comfort and smarter design.
Through early community support and a successful Kickstarter launch, UMEI grew into a movement embraced by athletes, creators, travelers, and everyday movers.
