Real luxury today means being able to tailor products to our lives
With A di GAETA, a new concept of ‘shoe tailoring’ is born — a modern interpretation of tailor-made footwear, where beauty and versatility come together to create extremely adaptable footwear solutions, tailored around consumer needs. As a tribute to the noble art of Italian shoe-making, A di GAETA has chosen to completely break down and reinterpret the way traditional footwear can be thought and designed, in order to adapt to the dynamic lives and evolving expectations of the modern woman. The brand believes in a transformational shift towards customer-centricity and purpose-led products, blending style and functionality to voice modern femininity. Ever-changing footwear designs that don’t betray a woman’s identity, but rather help her find the right balance between desire and need.
Our brand culture is anchored to the Italian heritage
“Made in Italy” for us means so much more than just luxury – it represents the perfect combination of history, creativity, expertise and craftsmanship. True Italian excellency cherishes the importance of the traditional know-how, that has been jealously protected and passed on from generation to generation. “e roots of Italian artisanal craftsmanship are based on giving importance to individuals — each craftsman has a personal historical heritage that carries an exceptional artistic and artisanal expertise.
Quality demands patience, which is why we searched all over Italy for a selection of forward-thinking artisans. A di GAETA products are entirely handmade in Italy, using certified luxury-grade materials. We decided to work only with Italian producers because of the heritage and humanity that there is behind the entire production chain: from the procurement of raw materials to the realization of the product.
What makes a shoe unique is the passion and craftsmanship with which it is made, strictly following the rules and canons of ancient and traditional craftsmanship.
We chose to base our shoe production only in Italy. The structure of our processes are very articulated and include companies specialized in the processing stages, component creation and product assembly.
We are eager to learn, understand, and protect our country’s precious know-how. Our goal is to be able to contribute in protecting the true Made in Italy heritage,
by fully supporting artisans who are part of this amazing culture through our work.
The rise of responsible luxury allows brands like ours to play a key role in promoting a cultural shift in society and influencing consumers to buy responsibly.
A di GAETA strives to be a responsible agent of change, with the key role of achieving realistic sustainable goals:
AUTHENTICITY
TRANSPARENCY
VERSATILY
LONGEVITY
We strive to work only with responsible suppliers that respect local and EU legislation standards with regard to chemical use.
Leather products are investment pieces, which need to be designed, developed and sold consciously. Traditional leather craftsmanship is an authentic Italian heritage and it takes time, patience and skill to develop properly, but the results are the most long-lasting. A di GAETA consciously chooses to work with strictly certified real Italian leathers because leather is the most durable and repairable material available, allowing products to have an exceptionally long lifespan and be worn for years. Leather is a precious resource that has to be used consciously — The A di GAETA team takes it upon themselves to make sure it is not wasted during the production process nor a!er it is sold.
