A DISCREET STYLE
Bontoni’s aesthetic seamlessly blends discreet Italian elegance with versatile style, achieved by weaving the revered tradition of Italian bespoke shoemaking with intricate design and meticulous attention to detail. The result is a look that is unmistakably unique and sophisticated.
At Bontoni, we seek to make shoes that combine classic styling with beautiful patinas and sleek and elegant lasts. Bontoni shoes would not have looked out of place 70 years ago and won’t look out of place in 30 years time. We strive for a timeless Italian elegance that is unique and individual by blending the rich legacy of Italian bespoke shoemaking with sophisticated design and fine details.
The styling evokes memories of Italy’s 1950’s jet-set era with a contemporary flair. Bontoni shoes are known for
richly hued, hand-dyed leathers, unique lasts, and meticulously hand-sewn stitching. Every pair of Bontoni shoes has a distinct identity. Guido Gazzani’s (first generation shoemaker) superior taste and artistic flair is reflected in Bontoni’s original ready-made collection and has certainly inspired our second and third generations shoemakers. Our now iconic three-buckle ‘Excelsior’, for instance, is one of those styles that really stood out from the first collection, and eventually, it became one of Bontoni’s most
iconic pieces.
The Bontoni enthusiast knows that his shoes will complete his sense of style no matter the occasion.
