Black is modest and arrogant at the same time. Black is lazy and easy – but mysterious. But above all black says this: “I don’t bother you – don’t bother me”.” Yohji Yamamoto
If you have raised your hands, muttering a soft “Amen”, or “all hail Yohji” when you read the quote, you are secretly part of the fashion community who has only faith in black clothing. From underwear to socks, until the very last of your accessories: nothing bypasses the black rule you set to yourself. But not everyone understand your “all black everything” attitude and this is where the struggle begins. Don’t worry, we feel you.
1) Basically, black is the most essential colour of your wardrobe
2) The problem is, you tried to explain several times your obsession, with no success.
3) When they see you, some people tend to ask you questions like: “Who’s funeral?”
Haven’t decided yet.
4) Or saying things like: “You always look sad”
No, that’s because of your silly questions.
5) And even: “I’m really concerned about you! You are always in black.”
Thanks for your support, really.
6) “Are you part of a (insert goth/black metal/emo movement here)?”
Yeah, my crew and I are all about black magic and stuff.
7) “Black is not a colour”
How dare you?
8) Your entourage constantly tries to make you wear “a soft touch of (insert colour here)”
Hell to the no.
9) When a salesperson answers you “sorry, we don’t have this in black”, you just walk out.
10) You’re not even sorry when you purchase a new black piece of clothing
11) You always double check an item, just to make sure it’s black BLACK.
12) Every once in a while, you fancy a slight touch of white, beige or grey. But just a slight touch.
13) Because at the end of the day, you are always back to black.
14) And you know the streets is watching.

Ever had a shoe in mind? Undandy has got you sorted.
Undandy is the first brand of custom, handmade shoes that allows you to design your own shoe with the most luxurious of styles and fabrics. From the classic Round Toe shoe to the bold Claw Toe, Undandy allows you to create more than 2 billion possible combinations with an affordable price tag. Their mantra ‘Conspicuously Inconspicuous’ says it all; express yourself by creating your own style in a world where everyone is trying to get noticed, the only way to be truly unique is to just be yourself. Unlike other design-your-own brands, Undandy have their shoes ready and sent out in 10 days with free worldwide delivery.
The concept was the brainchild of two Portuguese friends, Goncalo Henriques and Rafic Daud, who, in May 2014, became tired of seeing the same models and colours in every shop window. The lack of a concept of fast fashion men’s footwear led them seek out a business model that responded to this market need.
The businessmen, who have been best friends since school, have paired their passion for longstanding, tradition quality with the desire to empower people to follow their own path and be truly unique. In July 2014 they partnered with a manufacturer in São João da Madeira, a city that hosts some of the best shoemakers in the world to produce the handmade, bespoke shoes. Undandy pride themselves on their unbeatable customer service; they guarantee to respond to all their customers around the world in a maximum or two hours via a live chat and telephone.
After being put under pressure by friends, Undandy began producing shoes in female footwear sizes as well as commercialising sneakers. This diversification has had a very good acceptance in the market; Undandy aims to be the custom shoe reference brand in Europe in the next five years. From the eccentric to the businessman, anyone can customize their shoes and be ‘Undandy’ – rebelling against the standard and ‘being you’. The Undandy shoes are made in various skin types, from patent leather to suede; quality materials that ensure comfortable and durable footwear.
