Fashion career profile

Giuseppe Santoni

Giuseppe Santoni is an Italian footwear executive, product leader and the second-generation head of Santoni. His father Andrea Santoni founded the company in Corridonia in 1975 around a workshop model that combined artisanal shoemaking with controlled industrial production. Giuseppe assumed leadership in 1991 and directed international expansion, including the first monobrand New York boutique in 1997, while retaining the company's focus on construction, hand colouring and leather. His role is recorded as chairman and executive president rather than original founder, and it remains separate from the work of individual artisans and outside collaboration partners.
