Maileg

Maileg was founded in 1999 by Dorthe Mailil and Erik Mailil - combining their last name “Mailil” with the “leg”, the Danish word for play. Since founding Maileg, Dorthe has won many awards and honors for both her toys, as well as for her well-known illustrations that appear around the world in books, magazines and even TV shows. Maileg is today a well established global brand with headquarter in Herning, Denmark and Maileg Inc. as a subsidiary in Atlanta, USA. In September 2019 Maileg GmbH was established in Hamburg, Germany - handling all customers in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. Maileg Concept Store was launched at the same time in Hamburg, Germany – located at Eppendorfer Weg 77. Maileg is represented by agents and distributors in France, Australia/New Zealand, Finland/Sweden, Holland/Belgium, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Japan, Poland/Ukraine, Russia + CIS countries. We believe in story making! We believe that memories are made through the simple joys of children, bringing their imaginations to life. The best stories are their stories. We believe in inspiring children and everyone in their life to bring themselves and their stories to the world through innocent imaginative play. Play that connects and creates something greater. Something that endures through generations. Something that brings us all together. In a busy world of bright lights, bells and whistles, where new stories are continually impressed upon us… Maileg is a world in which matchboxes can be beds for mice; princesses make perfect teatime companions; and adventures can be found on a friendly forest walk. It is a world where cats and mice are friends. Ours is a world of childhood imagination - and this is a world we value. Maileg (pronounced My’lye) is a brand of charming Danish-designed toys created to inspire our children’s favorite playtime stories. By bringing storybook whimsy to everyday moments, Maileg toys help children explore the pure and simple wonder of imagination.
