Fits true to European size across all styles. If you are between sizes, size up — the vacchetta leather softens and shapes to your foot within a few wears. When in doubt, write to us.

Didn't expect this result...

"Wore these to a client dinner and my boss asked where I got them. I'd been looking for shoes that look sharp without killing my feet by the end of the night. These are it."

Genuinely surprised.

"Ordered two colors because I couldn't decide. No regrets, the quality feels like something I'd pay double for at a department store. My wife actually noticed."

Pretty good

"I'm on my feet all day and picky about comfort. First dress shoes in years I haven't kicked off under my desk by lunch. Genuinely impressed."

The leather didn't disappoint

"Photos don't do them justice. In person the leather and finish look way more expensive than the price. Worth every dollar."

Anthony M.

Real Italian feel.

"Wore these through Italy cobblestones, long days, a ton of walking. Feet were fine, fit was sharp. Lived in them the whole trip."

Hesitant

"Was skeptical ordering from a brand I didn't know. Took the chance — showed up well packaged, fit true to size, look even better in person. Ordering again."

They just feel right

"These are what I grab when I want to look put-together without thinking about it. They make a plain outfit look intentional. Hard to find at this price."

This company earned their place

"Bought them on a whim and they're now my most-worn pair. A buddy asked where I got them and ordered his own. Says it all."

FAQ

San Mauro Pascoli, Emilia-Romagna the same district that has produced Italy's finest footwear for three generations. The leather is vacchetta, vegetable-tanned over 30 days at the Walpier tannery in Santa Croce sull'Arno. San Diego California is also where some of our shoes are asembled. We will always tell you exactly where, and exactly by whom.

Yes — and that is the point. Vacchetta is a living material. It will crease where you crease, deepen where you walk, and become, over time, entirely yours. We consider this a feature, not a flaw.

Our shoes fit true to American size across all styles. If you are between sizes, we recommend sizing up — the vacchetta leather will soften and shape to your foot within a few wears. Our size guide lives on every product page, and if you're still uncertain, write to us.
