Shoe label United Nude was founded in 2003 by two members of famous design families: Rem D. Koolhaas, the nephew of Dutch architect Rem Koolhaas, and Galahad Clark, a seventh-generation scion of British shoemaking giant Clarks.
the brand, which specialises in high heels, blends architectural designs with unusual materials. Its signature model, the Mobius, put the label on the map with its edgy and different, yet entirely functional, appeal. The brand's innovative creations have a highly structured look, far removed from the overly feminine offerings that flood the footwear market.
