The Story of Matassa Milano

Tired of the usual cheap elevator shoes, mass-produced in China and devoid of soul?

Matassa Milano was born to change all that.

The idea took shape during a walk along the Camogli promenade, nestled between the sea and the colorful houses of Liguria. In that moment, I realized something was missing from the market: elevator shoes that were truly beautiful, authentic, and Italian.

My name is Federico, I am 28 years old, and I am the founder of Matassa Milano.

When I started, the market was dominated by low-quality products—mostly imported, made with subpar materials, and featuring zero attention to detail.

I wanted to prove the opposite.

I wanted to create shoes that give you those extra centimeters, yes—but above all, shoes that offer style, comfort, and true Italian artisanal excellence.


100% Made in Italy. For Real.

Today, many brands label themselves as "premium" while manufacturing in Asia to cut costs.

Not us. Every pair of Matassa Milano is handcrafted in Italy, in our workshops in Southern Italy, using only Italian materials: genuine leather, traditional techniques, and an obsessive attention to detail.

It’s not marketing. It’s reality.
