ABOUT MAQUI

Maqui Active was founded in 2014 by two sisters who brought together their passion for exercise and fashion to create a brand that speaks to women who are active, stylish, and convinced of their ability to take action. Our pieces are designed to excel in performance, functionality and fashion and are created with ideal fits to bring out the best in every body.  

At Maqui we believe that emotion is an infinite generator of energy to do whatever we want. We believe in brain chemistry, the one that after a good workout, an intense dance, or an uncontrolled laughter fills us with endorphins and leaves us ready to face the day, the month and life. We believe that this momentary rush we feel is so powerful that it allows us to face everything. We believe that just as there are times when we get dressed to sweep, it is more important every day to get dressed to be able to.

MISSION:

At Maqui we live to make outfits that make us feel amazing. Outfits that become our allies to keep us active and exist to remind us of everything we are capable of achieving. This is why and what we design our clothes for, to cheer you up and accompany you during your day to day life. Each piece is created to find the perfect balance between design and functionality, comfort and style.

VISION:

We design to uplift your energy, smile, and confidence. We design so that vigor, determination, style, and motion never fall short. We design with you in mind:
 
We design to uplift your energy, your confidence, your smile. We design so that vigor, determination, style, and motion never fall short. We design with you in mind: Women who want to achieve more every day, who set goals, achieve them and feel good about accomplishing them. Most importantly, we design to empower.

MANIFIESTO

Based in Barranquilla, Colombia, Maqui Active is a tribute to the “Carnaval de Barranquilla”, an annual celebration that keeps us coming back every year, searching for a feeling of rush transmitted by music, energy, laughter, people, and colors. The same rush you feel after a good workout, an intense dance class, or an uncontrollable laugh fills us with endorphins and leaves us ready to face our day, month, year, and life. This feeling is so powerful that it inspired us to create a clothing brand that can make people feel something every time they wear it. Maqui has a purpose: to be there for you wherever you look for that “rush,” whether exercising, dancing, strolling, or listening to loud music. We know the power of a good outfit and a great moment. We understand how important it is to move freely and feel secure in your clothes, so we created each garment to achieve the perfect balance between design and functionality, comfort, and style. Trendy and functional meets here at Maqui.
