The Solazzo collections offer a mix of materials and finishing made with the perfect blend of craftsmanship and contemporary appeal .

Almost in iits fieftieth year, the company is more than ever healthy and in step with market trends, never leaving behind its artisan past.
Today, two generations of the same family carry on the business, materials and trends are in line with contemporary fashion standars, but shapes and workmanship are still rooted in the old master craftsmen’s tradition. Solazzo shoes are meant as small masterpieces: in addition to the particular attention to details and color combinations, the traditional processes are still carried out mostly by hand. Like the English method Goodyear, the Norwegian, the Blake, the tubular process. Each of them enhances the quality and value of the materials used: from French calves to refined fabrics, up to exotic leathers such as peakok, ray, kangaroo, crocodile – chosen to give each shoe the required personality.
However, such personality is not synonymous with excess: Solazzo shoes stand out for their boldly classical imprint. Loafers, brogues, laced-up shoes, with buckles, all get a strong personality through an accurate choice of colors and materials – often in contrast – both for the upper and for the details.
