“The NON” is a British label that creates men clothes under the direction of Tony Spackman, one of the designers that used to work for Nike. With an attention which we might call obsessed with details and to the tailoring, Spakman describes The Non as being: “ a current search for authenticity, THE NON embraces our relentless desire to further knowledge, experience and personal development, our inexhaustible need for complexity and intellectual stimulation, our ongoing search for new luxuries.”

It is beyond logic and only in the realm of feeling. Is it then that our physical world is a projection of the mental world and therefore, you are the ruler who imagines the world as it is and this world exists solely in your mind, even if what you feel is not fully understood?”
