Shoes- handmade and factory made in Le Marche
Ask anyone what they think of when they think of Italy, the top two things that come to mind will be food and style. Press them further about style and they will mention fashion and shoes and of course cars.
Well, living in Le Marche we are fully aware that this region is home to the best Italian shoes, many of which are handmade by artisans, or made in a local shoe factory and finished by hand.
Locating handmade shoes or a Shoe factory in Le Marche
We have had retailers and buyers ask us where they can locate the local Le Marche shoe makers, the Marche shoe factories and the shopping outlets that stock the best local shoes and there are a number of pamphlets on the subject and a staggering number of web sites and resources.
However these disparate resources make it very difficult to plan a shoe shopping visit to Marche Region, especially if you are a retailer wanting to vivit shoe wholesalers, so we have attempted to simplify things for you.
Italian shoe manufacturers on Pinterest
Firstly, we obtained lists of local Marche shoe producers and visited the yellow pages, next we bookmarked them on Pinterest and commented on the predominant shoe style made by each manufacturer.
What we found was quite staggering, the local artisans produce the most incredible ranges of shoes, boots, belts and handbags.
Whilst they are mainly handmade leather shoes, they are also made in fabrics like neoprene, there are mens Italian shoes and Ladies Italian shoes and some shoemakers focus solely on childrens shoes.
Just click on this Pinterest image to browse the Le Marche shoemakers.

Most of the Le Marche shoemakers are based around Porto San Elpidio, Monte Urano, Montegranaro and Civitanova Marche, travel to these towns when on holiday and you will find many a factory has an outlet shop attached, or visit the town itself for shops. There are also a few dedicated outlet zones for high end brands such as Tods and Prada at Castagno outlet village.
All of these Marche shoe producers are only a short drive from Villa San Raffaello

Hi I will me first imagine my name is Iwert Linga was born and raised in the Netherlands. I’m looking for a shoe factory that can make my designs to reality. I’m not there yet that I can make my designs on the computer but on scratch. I would like to make a prototype, and whether it would be possible to take a look in your company.
Yours Iwert Linga
