In the picturesque city of L'Aquila, Italy, during the vibrant 1970s, a remarkable journey began that would forever change the world of footwear. In a charming workshop, a passionate cobbler discovered an ancient technique known as "patina." This exquisite method, which enhances the beauty and quality of leather, became his legacy, passed down through generations.
Our founder dedicated his life to mastering this art, crafting creations that were not just shoes but true expressions of personal style. As the demand for his masterpieces grew, so did his desire to share this artistry with his children and nephews. For over 50 years, the family immersed themselves in the world of shoemaking, perfecting the technique and creating moments of brilliance with every pair.
Recognizing that the future of his legacy rested with the next generation, he made a bold decision: he sent his children to study at the finest schools in France. He envisioned a brand that would merge Italian tradition with French elegance, breathing new life into his cherished craft.
Upon their return to L'Aquila, armed with fresh knowledge and a deep respect for tradition, his children embarked on a mission to create unique, limited-edition shoes, just as their father had done for his closest friends. This exclusivity not only honored their heritage but also ensured that each pair carried a story—a testament to dedication and artistry.
