Founders
Megan and Nick share a vision of essential staples that elevate your wardrobe and simplify your life. From co-workers, to friends, to founders of Oncept, this vision and their combined experience of 40+ years in footwear, is felt in each EDIT. Having traveled for work for many of those years, they found inspiration in their own lifestyles, especially abroad. Drawing from street style, cusine, new experiences, nature, intelligently design spaces and vintage goods. Traveling means exploring, spending time on your feet, and packing light, this inspired and highlighted the importance of versatile, flexible, and lightweight shoes.

When preparing a new collection we conduct minimal prototyping, limited sample lots, and produce 100% of samples we make. Timeless style with quality craftsmanship insure that ONCEPT shoes will last far beyond on season. As a small company, it is expected our carbon footprint would be low, but through our production model and brand ethos, we are committed to keeping our impact minimal–even as we grow. Designing with integrity, consuming with intention.
