N.D.C.

Brussels, Belgium

N.D.C. made by hand was created in 2001 by two friends passionate about shoes. Unable to find the shoes they really wanted to wear, they launched the brand to fulfill their personal need. N.D.C. made by hand immediately opened a new dimension in men’s and ladies’ footwear, offering luxurious materials, comfortable lasts and rejuvenated classics. The collections aimed to be appealing to a wide range of customers — trendsetters, luxury lovers, quality freaks, etc. — who are in pursuit of understated individualism.

The brand name nom de code — or ‘code name’ – reflects the conviction that the strength of the brand is the product itself. Four key factors define every n.d.c. made by hand collection: simplicity, quality, originality and constructional know-how.

All N.D.C. shoes are hand-crafted by the best European artisans using only carefully selected hides from Italy’s expert tanneries. Their passion for footwear is reflected in the use of quality materials, traditional shoe constructions — blake, goodyear, sacchetto, espadrille, etc — and exquisite finishing techniques. They do their best to turn every pair into a handmade work of art.
