The story

Seven styles are cut from suede: six shoes and a belt, all made in Portugal. Brush the dirt away while it is dry, then wipe with a damp cloth. We recommend keeping a wet cloth off it, as water works into the structure of the leather and does not come back out. A suede protector spray before the first wear is what makes a pair last.

Why choose it

For anyone who would rather brush a shoe clean than send it away.

01

One country

Seven shoes and a belt, all made in Portugal.

02

Brush before anything else

Dry dirt comes off with a brush. A damp cloth takes the rest.

03

Spray it first

A suede protector before the first wear is what makes the pair last longer.

What you pay for

Beckford Loafer: €189 here. €289 average market price.

Average market price is what a comparable piece costs from a brand that sells through other people's shops: department stores and multi-brand retailers. That price has to carry the brand's margin and the shop's margin, stacked. Ours carries one.

Our margin
€72,20

Margin is not profit. It goes to getting the piece to your door: shipping, returns, the warehouse. Then to running No Label: the team, the stores, the fit sessions, the photography. What is left goes into next season's fabric. On sale pieces there is often nothing left at all, because overstock is money sitting in a warehouse and we would rather it moved than marked up.
