DI MELLA: "Di Mella," a shoe factory founded in Naples, Italy in 1882. Initially, they primarily produced riding boots, but gradually shifted to dress and casual shoes. They have continued to uphold the Italian tradition of passing the business from parent to child, and now, 130 years after its founding, Giovanna Di Mella serves as CEO and designer. She has a background as a stage designer and restorer of performing arts items, which she incorporates into her shoe designs. She continues to experiment with interesting approaches, such as reinterpreting past models with contemporary materials and reviving classic designs with modern elements. Handling high-quality materials requires the knowledge and skill to research, understand, and apply the properties of the leather. They have been accumulating this knowledge over 130 years, which allows them to create beautiful shoes. While adhering to the "FATTE A MANO" method, where almost all processes are done by hand, they have introduced minimal machinery for efficiency, maximizing both price and quality. Their traditional shoemaking techniques are their pride as artisans.
