"...AND THE NARROWEST HINGE IN MY HAND
PUTS TO SCORN ALL MACHINERY".
WALT WITHMAN
"De Fumo" is a nickname,
the one which my father
Alessandrini Renzo, has always been called and with whom he is still recognized in town.
De Fumo it's a nickname that recalls, for over sixty years, an ancient, simple trade:
the artisan shoemaker.

Calzoleria De Fumo is a small shoemaking laboratory, based in Montegranaro, a little town in the center of the biggest italian Industrial Shoemaking Pole. That kind of place where any shutter you open you may find an uppermaking lab, or people specialized in Blake and Rapid stitching, a last laboratory, and so..
What our lab is specialized in is the realization of Bespoke shoes, something I learned (and still learning) by my father, Renzo, and a handful of other old shoemakers here in town..
