Federico Panebianco’s shoes –
The art of FOOTWEAR
Federico Panebianco’s shoes are born from his passion and his skill as a shoemaker: they are real works of art in leather.
The Sienese artisan Federico Panebianco, after a period of transition, has decided to give shape to his dream and make use of over 50 years of experience in the world of footwear and leather goods to create unique objects.
You can go and visit him at his artisan workshop in Colle Val d’Elsa, in the province of Siena, to admire all the exhibition of his shoes, made perfect by the attention to detail and finishing.
Research, study and love for tradition have allowed him to specialize in reproductions of historical shoes of fine workmanship, becoming the supplier of the footwear of the Palio di Siena, a unique event known throughout the world.
Handmade shoes
Federico Panebianco creates any type of shoe in leather: from the simplest to the most elegant, but always comfortable and comfortable.
Its main achievements are:
Custom shoes
The shoe is not simply chosen based on the usual size, but is made ad hoc for the individual customer.
A shoe must be comfortable, that is, caress the foot without being intrusive: a shoe fits well, in essence, when you forget you have it on your foot. But on many occasions it must also be elegant and refined.
Only if the shoe combines these characteristics does it become a real work of art.
Historical shoes
Federico Panebianco’s great passion is the creation of historical shoes from any historical period and any geographical area.
His multi-year study on materials and models make him one of the leading experts in the sector.
