The country that shares the same geographic shape as its most famous product – la scarpa Italiana! or the Italian shoe. Before the Second World War, for hundreds of years, a local craftsman would provide footwear for the entire community in any Italian village. This paternal occupation has formed family-owned businesses in Italy for ages. The craftsman would measure the feet of the client before making a perfectly fitting pair, not only for the feet but also the persona. Can you picture the fellow wearing these dress shoes? When looked at from afar you might not realize that these shoes are only ten centimeters long. These little gems are however made with no less precision than the ones for grown up boys.
