A1923 came to life in 2006 by artisanal shoemaker Simone Checchetto and is based in Rome. Focusing on pure craftsmanship, Checchetto combines traditional techniques with contemporary tanning and treatment methods. Each pair is individually treated and handcrafted to transport the high quality standards and to guarantee a long lasting durability. His timeless collections represent the reminiscence of his inspiration – the leather, the animal, the body.
