About Us


It all began in 2009, when we first lunched the itele brand in Nigeria making footwear for just family and friends. Gracefully the brand grew exponentially in the first year of lunch. Founder Seyi Agboola and the team constantly level up the shoe game by delivering value, producing high-quality footwear for fashion savvy men, inspiring and nurturing their fashion taste. Today we are privileged to connect with thousands of amazing customers everyday with exceptional products and our stores serving the global market.

 

After a decade of delivering excellence in Africa we decided to move the brand to the global scene. We opened our first international store in New Jersey, USA. The acceptance was encouraging so we decided to extend to the UK because of the unique spirit, energy and growing influence of fashion in men's footwear.

Our mission is to offer high-quality
Handmade products that give both comfort and style, durable products that stand the test of time. We are not into fast fashion products, sustainability is one of our priorities .

We minimize waste by handcrafting our products in small batches. We handpick our materials and we release our styles in limited runs.

Our factory is filled with world best artisans, we have mastered shoemaking combining  skills with precision and care to ensure all products are crafted to the highest standard.
