Salvatore Ferragamo Shoes

Salvatore Ferragamo Shoes are a specialty line by the Salvatore Ferragamo Italia company. It was founded by Salvatore Ferragamo in 1927 in California. In California, you say? What else could Ferragamo do but create fashion designs for Hollywood productions? Ferragamo always had a love for shoes and actually made his first pair at age 9. Before the creation of the company, Ferragamo operated a small store based out of his parent's home. After spending some time in California, he became known as a “shoemaker to the stars”, though his education and career in shoe making had just begun. By the 1930's Ferragamo had expanded his business (once bankrupt but never beaten) to some 700 employees. His designs ranged from strange and avant-garde to to traditional and elegant. Long after Ferragamo's death Salvatore Ferragamo Shoes still marches along, still producing high quality footwear along with bags, eye wear, silk accessories, watches, apparel and perfumes.
