n.d.c. made by hand was created in 2001 by two friends passionate about shoes. After working for over 10 years in the show business, Arnaud Zannier and Enrique Corbi felt that it was time to break free of the corporate machine and create their own story. They had seen a gap in the market for the kind of shoes that they wanted to wear so they opened a new dimension in men’s and ladies footwear by making shoes that are individual, anti-conformist, pure and functional without blindly following the ever-changing whims of fashion.
The brand name n.d.c.- nom de code/code name-reflects their conviction that the strength of the brand is the product itself, where simplicity, quality, originality and constructional know-how are king. They believe in style, in class, in strong personality, in understated grace, in subtle humor, in tradition and evolution, in fusion and harmony, but above all, in individuality.
