Fratelli Giacometti” is an Italian leather shoe brand that specializes in elegant silhouettes.

Fratelli Giacometti is the in-house brand of the only remaining artisan manufacturer in the Veneto region of northern Italy, where the Alps can be seen. The brand name is a combination of the family name of the Giacometti brothers and Fratelli (F.LLI = Fratelli), meaning brothers, and the shoe-making tradition that began in the 1890s with domestic work in the grandfather’s generation has been handed down from father to son. The shoes are carefully made by skilled craftsmen, led by Luigino Giacometti, the elder brother in charge of the president and quality control, and Roberto Giacometti, the younger brother in charge of technology and sewing, including paper and wooden forms. Their highly technical leather shoes with elegant wooden patterns are very attractive.
