Santoni Men

Family-owned and deeply rooted in la tendance , the Santoni house has made city shoes as chic as they are trendy. It all began in 1975 in Italy, when Andrea Santoni , son of a farmer who became a bootmaker, and his wife Rosa imagined and designed men's shoes that were as beautiful as they were comfortable. Initially, the small company exclusively manufactured and sold its shoes in its own workshops. Andrea Santoni is gradually extending the brand to the world of women and attracting aficionados of luxury accessories. Today, the Santoni brand is a reference in the field and stands out for its impeccable design, its authentic artisanal know-how as well as its masculine and feminine lines that are as versatile as they are architectural. Now under the artistic direction of Edmundo Castillo, each piece is a unique creation. The Puerto Rican designer combines his knowledge of style and architecture acquired during his studies at the Fashion Institute of Technology as well as the Parsons School of Design in New York to imagine artistic shoes and bring a touch of madness that characterizes him. Santoni shoes for women are glamorous and retro and the arches are designed and adapted to guarantee unfailing comfort. For men, moccasins, derbies and other sneakers are distinguished by their fine point and their urban look. A particularity of Santoni , a large part of the production is made by hand. The brand also created a school in 2005 where artisans pass on their assembly techniques as well as the leather coloring process to apprentices. A concept that is close to the heart of Andrea Santoni , who is always very invested in his business. The patriarch also constantly checks the quality of the shoes when they leave the factory.
