WHO WE ARE

Since 1985, we’ve specialized in producing handmade leather belts—instilling care, passion, and appreciation for artisan craft into every single design.

Every aspect of our production represents the best that Italy has to offer the world of fashion.

 

Our production is artisanal, a feature that distinguishes Italian production from the rest of the world and that makes us key players in the luxury goods sector: our skills and creativity are unequalled in the world.
 

30 years of experience, evolving values, and continuous adaptations have allowed us to redefine the world of luxury belts—to uphold high standards of environmental resiliency and workers’ rights—embodying the personal beliefs of our founders, Paola and Giorgio.

The result is a stunning collection of leather and vegan-leather belts that have top quality, durability, and elegance—and an imaginative production process that is purely and authentically Italian.

MISSION + VISION

Our vision is to utilize avant-garde techniques and the GREENEST raw materials available to produce high-quality, handmade belts.

Our mission is to continuously INNOVATE to create a better world for all and REINVENT ourselves to ensure we leave the smallest possible trace on the planet. This translates into new company systems that REIMAGINE every component of the supply chain—infusing sustainable & ethical practices at every stage from raw material selection to waste diversion to banking.
