The world of sneakers nowadays runs on speed and considering the breakneck hype-release-resale market is still going strong. No.One is the antidote to this speed. The brand micro-produces and hand-lasts (shaping the leather by hand over a mold) its sneakers and boots in its atelier in Venice, California, dropping them when they’re good and ready and not a moment too soon. “For No.One, product is king,” says designer Mark Gainor. “It’s really important that the that the designs we create are complemented by the materials we use. As we strive to be the best at what we do, we try whenever possible to work with people who share the same ethos.”
We’ve selected some of the best releases to date for you to gaze over and wonder.. “why the hell didn’t I know about these sooner?”
