The most important footwear companies in Italy have grown in this way, replicating the model of the small artisan companies from which they were born: excellent materials used for protection, attention to customer needs, patient dedication to attention to detail. The Italian style has conquered the world from the bottom, from the numerous shoemaking districts scattered in our country: the Neapolitan one, the Verona one and the Fermano-Macerata one, for example.
