Why below retail
The same Samba, for less. We're an independent retailer. Most stores agree to sell at the price the brand sets, and we don't sign that agreement. We buy in volume, price on what we paid, and the difference is yours.
Every product page shows the brand's price struck through next to ours, so you can see the gap on the pair you are looking at. Same pair, same box. The gap varies by style and size.
We're independent of the brand's price
Most stores sell the same shoe at the same number, because the brand sets it. We're independent, so we set our own. That's why the price on this page doesn't match the one at the mall.
We buy in volume
Brands and their partners move stock in bulk: whole size ranges, end-of-season colorways, overstock from a big order. We buy it by the pallet, and the price per pair falls with it. That's the price we build from.
