The Tigerli come to the streets
Our shopping tips of the week: industrial atmosphere in the concept store, tiger finches for outdoors and earrings that can be individually designed.
Today, nobody knows for sure why the brand is called Tiger Swiss.

A concept store offers an exceptional range of high-quality brands. This is also the case with Fuse, a new concept store located in the immediate vicinity of Helvetiaplatz.
The store is designed in an industrial style, with lots of concrete, metal and specially designed furniture. In between you will find a curated selection of design objects, clothing and jewelry. There are brands like Roa Hiking and Stockholm Surfboards that have permanent exhibits. And brands like Saftig, Aki Verlag and Lea Rösch that only exhibit their products for a few weeks.
The founding members are Anna Hew, Cecilia Etterlin, Johanna Roth and Marius Nägeli. Their different backgrounds are reflected in the concept with the aim of creating a meeting place for those interested in culture, design, art and fashion. In addition to products, there is an exhibition room with changing exhibitions and a café-bar.
Fuse Concept Store, Wed–Fri 10am–8pm / Sat 10am–6pm, Molkenstr. 21, 8004 Zurich, Instagram @fuse.zurich
Mary Jane by Tiger Swiss
The tiger finches have giraffe or sometimes leopard patterns, but never a tiger pattern.

The Tigerli probably doesn’t need a rough introduction at this point. The indoor shoes with the giraffe pattern and bright red have been a Swiss classic for over 100 years. With the new model, Mary-Jane, the Tigerli can now finally be worn on the street.
Instead of the classic leather sole, the Mary Jane model has a rubber sole that is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. The pattern remains classic: giraffe. The hem of the Tigerli can be chosen between red and black. The shoe is available in both children’s and adult sizes.

At Les Solides, you can redesign your earrings with the mix-and-match collection. The silver and gold hoop earrings remain the same. You can also purchase various add-ons that can be put on and taken off individually. For example, the earrings can be combined with a red coral pendant one day and a simpler ring add-on the next day.
The label was founded in 2017 by the Swiss designer Anna Z’Brun. The earrings are made of 925 silver by a family business in Bali. They are gold-plated in Switzerland.
Jewellery, from 44 francs, available in the Ours flagship store, Bäckerstr. 56 and lesolides.com
