Stefano Bemer started his company in 1983 with a goal no less ambitious than creating the perfect Italian shoe. Through his curiosity, he taught himself the infinite variations of shoemaking by first repairing shoes, then attending courses and workshops, and finally mastering his own technique in the way it is recognized and appreciated today. Thanks to Stefano’s commitment, the brand name became closely associated with the highest standard of Italian elegance and quality, and today, is synonymous with both style and refinement.

Although many would say his goal has been accomplished, for us this is just the beginning.
Perfection is an ongoing quest! This constant journey is best represented by the ten months Stefano Bemer spent teaching Daniel Day-Lewis—a man known for his meticulous approach to his craft—the art of shoemaking. Their shared passion for their respective art forms brought them together: Mr. Day-Lewis doesn’t simply play a role, he becomes his character.
Stefano Bemer does not just make shoes, he creates art.
